Description

The garden flat has many original attributes and architectural details. It is approached by a path and flight of stone steps to an imposing front door to the building. The rooms are nicely proportioned with lofty ceilings, and an extension provides a large kitchen/breakfast room with direct access to the gardens. Windows are double glazed and there is gas-fired central heating to radiators. Early possession is available with no ongoing chain.

High Knoll was built as a large Victorian country house, the first to be built in the southern part of the town which was subsequently developed with spacious and gracious Edwardian and later houses. In 1934 the building was converted into four flats: two on each floor. A formal management company formed by the leaseholders in 2004 administers buildings insurance and maintenance of common parts.

The Crescent, off Goring Road, is generally considered to be in Steyning's best residential area. It is convenient for local cultural and leisure amenities and there are many of these, shops and churches. The small country town lies at the foot of the beautiful South Downs National Park where it meets the Sussex Weald.

The south coast is less than five miles (nearest mainline station at Shoreham); Horsham 15 miles. A23/M23 access eight miles for Crawley and Gatwick Airport. Brighton 10 miles and Central London 60 miles. There is also easy access to the A24 London road.
