This particular property has been sympathetically extended over the years to provide versatile accommodation, including a 5-bay garage and an impressive self-contained annexe, ideal for those who have a dependent relative or are looking for a secondary income opportunity. One of the most impressive features is the secluded West-facing Garden, a perfect place to relax and enjoy the sunset punctuated by the occasional Spitfire.

Very few properties boast such versatile accommodation in such a desirable location. Upon entering, one is immediately drawn to a panoramic outlook over the West-facing rear garden and the adjoining fields from full-height windows.

The ground floor benefits from a well-appointed open-plan kitchen with defined areas for dining and relaxing, which comes complete with a family area providing an excellent space for entertaining. Adjacent to the kitchen there is a WC with laundry facilities and a separate dining room and playroom overlooking the front garden. In addition, there is a formal sitting room which is bright and airy with a triple aspect allowing plenty of natural light to illuminate the room. There is also an open fireplace perfect for the winter months.

The flexibility of accommodation continues to the first floor, where most bedrooms are West facing with views over the rear garden, farmland, and South Downs. The generous principal bedroom has access to a balcony, designated dressing area, built-in wardrobe and ensuite. The guest bedroom also benefits from built-in wardrobes and an ensuite bathroom. Finally, there are three further double bedrooms all with built-in storage and access to a modern family shower room.

Accessed from the hall, on the ground floor of the South side of the house, there is a large utility room with a second staircase leading to a substantial office space above the garage; ideal for those who work from home.

The annexe is equally as impressive. A pretty oak-framed detached lodge offering self-contained ancillary accommodation makes an ideal place for those with a dependent relative or for those looking to create a secondary income opportunity. The lodge has an impressive, vaulted ceiling creating a feeling of space. There is an open-plan kitchen with a designated space for dining and relaxing. Additionally, the bedroom has built-in wardrobes and access to an ensuite. Outside, the annexe is screened from the main house by a low-rise fence, creating a private garden complete with a sun terrace, which overlooks the adjoining farmland.
