A Truly Rare Opportunity To Acquire An Exceptional Early Victorian Semi Detached Home, Coming To The Market For The First Time In 36 Years, In Quiet Secluded VIllage Location With Versatile Accommodation Arranged Over 4 Floors & With Delightful Mediterranean Style Rear Garden, Parking & Close To Countryside & The Village High Street.

Windmill Lane is situated just to the south west of the village and is right on the cusp of the rolling downland countryside with a pathway leading the way, literally from the doorstep. Henfield boasts and excellent range of facilities including 2 supermarkets, a bakers, greengrocers, hardware store, pharmacy and many other independent retail outlets. There is also an excellent choice of eateries, pubs and cafes. St Peter’s CEP School is within comfortable walking distance and Henfield has both doctors and dental surgeries.

This wonderful home exudes a great deal of character, and whilst many of it’s original traits are clearly visible, the property has been sympathetically refurbished over the years to provide a home that is true to it’s Victorian origin yet is well equipped for modern living. The accommodation is arranged over 4 floors and is currently arranged with 4 bedrooms, the master having an en-suite shower room and access to a balcony providing elevated views. A family bathroom serves 3 bedrooms on the first floor and there is a further shower room on the lower ground floor. There is a beautiful double aspect sitting room which is the focal point of the upper ground floor, with working fireplace and downstairs is a wonderfully cosy kitchen breakfast room with plenty of storage and work space and plenty of room for a family sized table and chairs to gather. French doors provide access and steps up to the rear garden and there is also a fabulous walk-in pantry with plenty of storage and prep space.

Immediately off the kitchen is currently a family room/snug, which together with the adjacent utility area and shower room, could easily provide self contained accommodation for a relative if required. There is a WC on every level of the house making it extremely convenient for entertaining and the outside space segues beautifully from inside with access from the kitchen and the upper ground floor. The garden has been wonderfully cultivated over the years and includes various areas to enjoy maximum sunshine and is also wired for outside garden lighting in the evening. There is also a most useful brick outbuilding which is actually older than the main house and was once one the village’s bake houses (and the bread oven is still to be seen) and this serves currently as a workshop. The front garden also provides a pleasant lawned area to sit and enjoy and adjacent to the south is a driveway providing comfortable parking for 3 cars.
