West Street, Billingshurst

A superb six bedroom detached family home set in its own landscaped gardens of approximately a third of an acre. The property is perfectly located at the heart of the village centre yet tucked away and secluded from the road. The location gives a short walk to the local shops, schools, train station and leisure centre. From the character entrance porch, a door opens to a very welcoming reception hall with its own wood burner. The reception hall gives access to a large dining room, drawing room with generous ceiling height, and double opening doors leading to a sunroom. From the drawing room, double opening doors lead to a large study/family room with a fireplace and a feature circular bay window with window seat. One of the main features of the property is the wonderful kitchen/dining/family room, which is at the heart of the home, with an extensively fitted kitchen with numerous appliances, plenty of space for a large dining table, and an area for relaxing with the family. The ground floor is complemented by a utility room and cloakroom. On the first floor the long landing gives access to six bedrooms, with the main bedroom having a large en-suite with underfloor heating, and there is also a good sized family bathroom. To the outside there is a wonderful double garage with plenty of parking to its front and side with an EV charging point. The double garage has recently been re-roofed with the opportunity taken to install photo voltaic cells with battery, to vastly reduce the running costs for the home. An insulated loft room is above the garage which makes an ideal studio or provides additional sleeping accommodation. The wonderful grounds of approximately third of an acre, encompass the house with numerous large areas of lawn, recently carried out hard landscaping with meandering brick path and matching patios, and to the front, the boundary fencing has been renewed. To the rear of the property the good sized garden has several areas of lawn, further terrace with wooden pergola and climbing grape vine, aluminium framed greenhouse, garden shed and towards the very rear boundary is a further large terrace.
