Lynwick Street, Rudgwick, Horsham, West Sussex, RH12

A charming beautifully presented 16th Century Grade II Listed family home of approximately 2,686 sq ft benefitting from four bedrooms, four reception rooms, and wonderful landscaped gardens and grounds, and ideally situated in the highly sought after village and parish of Rudgwick.

This substantial property sits on a double width plot surrounded by magical gardens and grounds and has the benefit of open countryside to the rear.

The accommodation is deceptively spacious and there is the addition of an office/potential annex and further outbuildings in the grounds along with excellent parking and an open car barn at the front of the property.

The interiors of Stubbons offer the very best of the character from properties from this era with the abundance of exposed beams and lovely original fireplaces being just some of the many features.

Upon entering Stubbons you go into a spacious entrance hall that leads through to the principal reception room with lovely brick fireplace and wood burning stove and twin doors to the rear garden. Beyond this room there is a light filled breakfast room which in turn leads through to the cottage kitchen with extensive ranges of solid wood topped units and electric cooker. The second wing of accommodation on the ground floor provides a further sitting room with a step up to a beautiful formal dining room with a large brick fireplace with second wood burning stove. There is also a cloakroom on the ground floor.

Two staircases lead to the first floor at Stubbons, being a remnant of its past as two cottages. The first-floor accommodation provides four good sized bedrooms, each with their own individual style and all offering the depth of character of original features mirroring the ground floor accommodation. Two of these rooms are en suite and there is an additional shower room.

Externally

Stubbons is situated on a double width plot with the delightful grounds being one of its main features. At the rear of the house the gardens are beautifully cultivated offering extensive lawns, interspersed with a number of flower beds and herbaceous areas providing a colourful display of a wide variety of flowers, plants and specimen trees.

There are a number of strategically placed seating areas with paving, and an extensive paved terrace adjacent to the rear of the house with the rear garden being bordered by a high and well cared for hedge. An impressive and substantial detached dwelling at the rear of the property provides a family room with vaulted beamed ceiling and walls, with large doors opening onto a rear terrace.

To the front of the house the gardens are equally impressive with lawn flower beds and manicured hedges and plants. There is a driveway with electric gates leading to extensive parking and a double car barn. The Lychgate entrance sets the scene as you enter the front gardens and path.
