This handsome 1929 detached house offers nearly 3,000 sq ft of versatile family living across three floors. Beautiful period details — high ceilings, bay windows, marble flooring and arched doorways — sit alongside comfortable modern fittings such as a fitted kitchen, quartz worktops and a contemporary en-suite.
Accommodation includes six double bedrooms, three bathrooms and multiple reception rooms: a 31ft dual-aspect living room, formal dining room, large sitting room and kitchen/breakfast room. The layout suits multi-generational households, home working and generous entertaining, with a balcony and a substantial private garden and patio for outdoor living.
Externally the property sits behind a gated entrance with a large block-paved driveway and mature, secluded borders. It’s well placed for countryside walks on the South Downs, local shops, schools and road links to the A27/A24. Broadband is reported fast and there is no flood risk.
Practical points to note: the house is Grade-era construction (built 1929) so long-term upkeep and running costs can be higher than a new build. Council tax is described as quite expensive, and the multi-storey layout may not suit limited mobility. Nearby schools are mostly rated Good, though a local infant school requires improvement.
