Fern Road, Storrington, RH20 4

REF RM1298

Perfectly situated, sat back off the road behind a gravel driveway with a private layby to the side for two cars parked side by side rather than nose to tail, Fern Road is the kind of spot where you're a five minute walk from either the village centre or open downland.

The entrance porch gives guests somewhere to wait before you open the door properly, leading into a hallway with stairs on the left and a WC tucked beneath them. The living room sits to the right, herringbone flooring underfoot and enough space for a proper sofa arrangement. The kitchen looks straight out over the garden through the window above the sink, grey shaker units run along with contrasting dark worktops throughout, a stainless steel range cooker under its own extractor and a wine rack built into the cabinetry, all on its own tiled floor. Through into the dining area, the herringbone from the living room continues underfoot, tying the two rooms together, and French doors open straight onto the garden so the space works as one whether the doors are open or shut.

Upstairs, three bedrooms share a family bathroom, the primary bedroom easily taking a double bed and wardrobes without the room feeling like a corridor. A second double and a third bedroom, which is a much larger single than some of the competing homes at this price point, finish the floor.

The garden is fully enclosed, and it's a bright house, catching sun to the front and back through most of the day. At the far end sits a separate studio, currently set up as a home office, gym and music room, with its own power, light and utility space for a washer and dryer. Work from home, train at home, or just have somewhere for the drum kit. Whatever you need it to be.

Location & Lifestyle

Storrington sits at the foot of the South Downs, with the South Downs Way itself running along the ridge above the village, the waymarked path continuing east to Sullington Hill, Highden Hill and on to Chanctonbury Ring. In the village there's a Waitrose, Costa Coffee and a run of independent shops. Joanna's Boutique Tearoom is the one for afternoon tea, and Antique 'N Eat does coffee and brunch upstairs among the antiques, most of which are for sale along with your breakfast. For an evening out, The Village Taverna on the High Street covers Greek and Mediterranean, and Chanctonbury Leisure Centre has a gym, studio classes and sports halls for anyone who wants more than the walk up to the Downs.

Storrington Primary holds a Good Ofsted rating, with children moving on to either The Weald or Steyning Grammar at secondary level. Pulborough station is a short drive away with a half-hourly service into London, and the A283 gets you to Worthing and the coast without much fuss.

Three bedrooms, one bathroom, just over 1,100 sq ft, plus a separate garden studio.
