Description
The accommodation has been substantially improved over recent years by the present owners and the generous accommodation is enhanced by a very spacious principal reception room with an inglenook style fireplace and log burning stove. The beautifully appointed kitchen/breakfast room opens into the former double glazed conservatory which now is significantly improved with its vaulted and insulated ceiling and overlooks the secluded rear garden where there is a heated swimming pool which, over the last few summers, has been a great asset to the owners. Refinements have been added only in the last year or so to a home that stands out as one of the finest of its type that we have seen in this lovely downland village. There is no onward chain.
The ancient and picturesque village of Alfriston is enviably located in the Cuckmere valley surrounded by the scenic downland countryside of the South Downs National Park to which there is easy access from this property which has the benefit of a delightful and quiet locaion. As well as vibrant village life Alfriston offers a wide range of amenities with its charming parish church which is the venue for a wide range of musical events. Fine dining is available at the renowned Star Inn as at several other restaurants and characterful pubs as well as at the award winning Rathfinny Wine Estate. There is a very useful village store and a variety of shops and galleries. The surrounding downland countryside offers wonderful recreational opportunity and the sea is nearby at Cuckmere Haven. The principal shopping centre of Eastbourne is easily accessible as is Seaford and the county town of Lewes. There are rail services to London Victoria and to Gatwick from nearby Berwick Station. There is world class opera at nearby Glyndebourne and channel ferries are from Newhaven.
