Freehold

Description

A newly and extensively refurbished, stunningly presented four/five bedroom home situated on an outstanding plot of approximately 2.5 acres with breathtaking, panoramic views across the English channel. This exceptional property has been extensively modernised and remodelled to a high standard and sits in its own magnificent plot in the quiet village of Eartham that falls under the parish of Chichester. The position is quite magical, being elevated from most of the surrounding landscape and providing a serene and tranquil oasis mostly hidden from a quiet lane by a flank of large and mature trees, whilst also offering a purchaser a very generous plot complete with a stable block and substantial garaging. The views from Keepers Cottage are quite dramatic and take in miles of the surrounding area and countryside, including stunning sea views with The Isle of Wight easily visible on most clear days.

The property itself offers wonderful interiors that are bathed in natural light with most windows looking directly over the exceptional views. A large sitting room/dining room has a complete range of floor to ceiling sliding doors enabling this room to bask in the wonderful outlook beyond and open in the summer months to extend the living space to the outside terrace that runs along the southern elevation. This room has bespoke fitted cabinetry on one wall with personal lighting, and a feature brick fireplace with wood burning stove.

A superb Orangery is surrounded by the gardens and views creating additional modern living as an open extension of the sitting room area. There is also a large double aspect drawing room on the eastern flank of the home and a further family room/ media room at the front that could be used as a further bedroom if required. The more formal lounge is found on the western side of the property and is a triple aspect room, with a further lovely feature brick fireplace and wood burning stove. In the centre of the home there is a newly fitted kitchen with ranges of units and work surfaces, built in appliances and Aga style stove. The ground floor accommodation provides two further bedrooms, a luxurious bathroom, a further shower room and a cloakroom. The first floor offers two impressive En-Suite double bedrooms with bespoke fitted bedroom furniture and lighting.

Outside
The property sits in the centre of the plot and benefits from a rare combination of having seclusion from other homes whilst enjoying wonderful open views for many miles. The grounds are mostly lawned with the plot being flanked by high trees at the side and an open aspect to the south overlooking an adjoining field and the distant views beyond. On the southern side of the home there is a large, paved terrace ideal for entertaining, with steps down to the lawn below. To the front there is another large terrace, ideal for late afternoon summer sun, perfect for an entertaining and barbeques at the end of the day or as a hot tub area, taking full advantage of sunsets in the west. A substantial driveway with two turning bays sweeps in from the top of the plot and leads to a large courtyard with stable block and garage.
