Viewing is essential to appreciate the convenient location of this oast influenced detached house that is set well back from the road down a long driveway with the most fantastic views across open countryside towards the South Downs.  Available on the market for the first time in 28 years the current owners have improved and extended the property to provide spacious accommodation with three reception rooms and four double bedrooms, many taking in the spectacular views.  Having been well maintained over the years, the property has double glazing and gas central heating.  Outside the delightful gardens offer a great deal of privacy complete with a detached gazebo for outside dining, a kitchen garden and a water feature.  The property is situated just a short distance from the town centre and mainline station.
