With part tile hung and brick elevations under a tiled roof, the accommodation is arranged over two floors.

There is also a downstairs shower room on the ground floor. From the hall, stairs rise to the first-floor landing, off which are three double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The principle bedroom has a picture window and benefits from uninterupted views over the South Downs as well as a large built-in wardobe.
