Either side of the hallway lies the office, sitting room, family room and dining room. Period features of the era are showcased throughout the property including high ceilings, sash windows, large bay windows and ornate fireplaces. There is also the benefit of a useful utility room. Stairs lead to the first floor where 4 sizable bedrooms reside with the bedrooms on the southern side having glorious views towards the South Downs. The bedrooms are serviced by both a bathroom and a separate shower room. The landscaped gardens are beautifully tendered and lie to the front and rear of the property. Manicured lawns, box hedges ‘knott gardens’ and paved terraced areas are interlinked by brick paths. A driveway at the rear of the garden provides off street parking and access to the double garage.
