A stunning Grade II Listed home, that has been sympathetically modernised and dramatically enhanced by a striking architect designed extension.

This stylish detached home retains its historic charm while offering a fresh contemporary twist and is set in the heart of the South Downs National Park with breathtaking panoramic views across open countryside.



Tucked away along a peaceful country lane in a truly idyllic, sought after rural setting, this stylish Grade II Listed home combines 16th-century charm with contemporary design.

Fully modernised and extended in 2007, the property offers approximately 3,786 sq. ft of elegant accommodation including a detached three storey barn with garage, studio and office, all set within 0.64 acres of mature gardens with panoramic views over the South Downs.

The original Tudor cottage presents a warm and inviting layout with a guest suite, including bathroom and double bedroom on the first floor.

On the ground floor is a library/fourth bedroom, a study and utility room which offer scope for conversion into a fourth bedroom suite with en-suite shower room, if desired.

There is a cosy sitting room featuring a superb inglenook fireplace, alongside a formal dining room.

The welcoming entrance hall flows seamlessly to the extended wing of the house where there is a kitchen/breakfast room, which is a striking space with vaulted ceiling. There is a glazed section with captivating views of the garden which provides a serene space for reading. In addition, there is a shower room.

This contemporary wing includes a spacious drawing room with bifold doors to a private terrace. Above, a vaulted principal bedroom suite with exposed cruck frame has magnificent, elevated views.

Outside
The property is approached via a private driveway with ample parking and turning space.

There is a substantial barn which is multi use and includes a garage, a large studio (currently used as a gym) and a home office. This could (subject to permissions) be converted into further ancillary accommodation while retaining covered parking for multiple cars below.

The south-facing gardens are a particular highlight. Bordered by heritage style iron estate fencing with spectacular views over the South Downs, there is a mix of terraced lawns, paved seating areas, and tranquil spaces for outdoor dining and relaxation.

A sheltered loggia, established trees (including a magnificent Canadian Oak and elegant Willows) and a rich variety of planting contribute to the property’s peaceful environment. In total, the grounds extend to approximately 0.64 acres (0.259 ha).
