Shirleys, Ditchling

An individual detached family home with adaptable accommodation, nestled in a highly sought-after cul-de-sac featuring generously sized and beautifully maintained gardens backing on to neighbouring farmland

Ditchling, nestled within the South Downs National Park, is a historic village playing host to a selection of local shops, cafes, a church, and two public houses including The Bull, an award-winning gastro pub. The larger village of Hassocks is a short drive away, as is the city of Brighton and Hove, both offering mainline train connections to London and a greater array of shops and restaurants. This area of Sussex also benefits from a variety of superb private and state schools for all ages, all within easy reach of the village.

Nestled along the ever popular Shirleys in the charming village of Ditchling, this beautifully extended 1950’s detached house presents an exceptional opportunity for discerning families seeking space, style and versatility. Blending timeless character with comfort, the home offers a highly flexible layout including a superb ground floor principal bedroom suite complete with a private dressing area and en-suite shower room. Three elegant reception rooms, a delightful garden room and a generously proportioned kitchen/breakfast room fitted with a selection of luxury integrated appliances provide both functionality and sophistication. Outside the private east facing gardens are simply stunning. A wide paved terrace adjoins the rear of the house overlooking manicured lawns, vibrant flower borders and a thoughtfully designed kitchen garden with raised vegetable beds and a greenhouse. A private driveway to the front offers parking for up to four cars and provides access to the integral store.
