Description

Lodsworth House, was built between 1837 and 1839 by Hasler Hollist who commissioned the well-known country house architect Edward Blore to construct this magnificent house on a ridge close to the heart of Lodsworth, with its gardens facing south across to the rolling hills of the South Downs.

Listed Grade II, the house is positioned at the end of a stunning tree lined driveway situated within extensive gardens and parkland laid out in the mid-19th century containing many fine examples of mature shrubs and trees from the period.

The house has many outstanding architectural features and is a fine example of the achievements of Edward Blore who is also well known for his work on public buildings such as Buckingham Palace, Lambeth Palace, and Government House in Sydney.

Indicative of its evolution over time, the house and gardens form an important component of the popular village of Lodsworth whilst its unique architecture allows the East Wing to benefit from both the splendour of the building and its own privacy.

The owners have gone to extraordinary lengths to refurbish this elegant wing of the property, one of the finest houses in the area with the most impressive external elevations.

Excluding the cellars, the accommodation boasts over 4200 sq ft of living space with room sizes and ceiling heights rarely found in West Sussex. The attention to detail in fitting out the property is exceptional providing a fine period home with modern comforts throughout.

There are many outstanding features including a magnificent drawing room with high ceilings and far-reaching views which opens into the stunning Orangery overlooking the garden. The kitchen/breakfast room have been designed with simple lines and for ease of use open into the dining/family room.

The first floor includes a superb principal bedroom adjoining a quite striking marble en-suite bath & shower room. There are two further large bedrooms with far reaching views adjoining another beautifully designed bath & shower room on this floor. The second floor offers a self-contained space with two more well sized bedrooms, a walk-in closet and bath and shower room.

The property provides a further 1500 sq ft of arched cellars offering a variety of opportunities from games room and gym to storage. There is also a magnificent self-contained wine cellar with original stone storage bins and slate shelving.

The modern features include a hard-wired network connecting the whole house and under floor heating throughout the bathrooms, kitchen, boot room and the Orangery.

The property is approached over its own private entrance drive which leads through a wooded area to the East Wing. The gardens offer privacy and seclusion, as well as having the most spectacular views over the neighbouring Sussex countryside and the South Downs beyond.

The property also offers a shared interest in the leisure facilities of Lodsworth House including a tennis court and a swimming pool.
