SOLD BY JACKSON-STOPS..........

AN ELEGANT 19TH CENTURY FAMILY HOME
OF GREAT CHARACTER IN AN ESTABLISHED
SETTING BETWEEN DORKING AND HORSHAM.......

Capel Lodge is an impressive 19th century family home of great style and character, offering beautifully proportioned accommodation. The current owners who purchased Capel Lodge in the late 1990s have renovated the property and it is now offered for sale in excellent and tasteful decorative order. The accommodation as can be seen on the floorplan is extensive and highly versatile, ideal for the larger family. The principal rooms are most impressive and enjoy lovely views over the secluded grounds – the kitchen breakfast room is a most welcoming room with its hand painted traditional cupboards and gas fired AGA it is very much ‘ the hub of the home’. Various traditional features are retained throughout this lovely property, including an elegant staircase and spacious reception hall, original doors, some original fireplaces and high ceilings together with sash windows to some of the rooms. The property is approached by a long sweeping driveway with a turning circle providing parking and turning for several cars. The owners have created an attractive traditional barn style garage which we are told is oak framed, and has three car spaces together with a large studio/party room above. There are various garden outbuildings, which are most useful as garden storage for machinery etc. Much thought, time and expertise has gone into the planning of the gardens, which have a dedicated separate vegetable garden together a cedar greenhouse, delightfully created pathways, and the main garden extends mainly to the south being laid to lawn with tall screening trees towards the eastern boundary. There is a separate area of land to the east consisting of light woodland and a pond. In all, the grounds extend to approximately 1.86 acres.
