House For Sale £1,250,000
Set within eighteen acres, Huntswood House offers breath-taking views of the landscape and a wealth of potential to be updated and transformed to create a contemporary family home styled to suit your own tastes and needs.
Beautifully light and bright, the large hallway creates a welcoming feel and great sense of space. The warm tones of its parquet floor flow into the impressive proportions of a double aspect living room where wide bay windows look out onto the surrounding greenery. A distinguished open fireplace is an elegant focal point and makes this a great place to relax and unwind. The picturesque vistas continue across the hallway in the notably sized kitchen/dining room. Fully fitted with an integrated hob and traditional wood cabinets that provide an admirable amount of storage, its generous layout is perfectly suited for both family meals and entertaining, while a glazed door makes it easy to enjoy outdoor meals in the garden. Accessed from both the living room and kitchen, a study adds to the versatility of this home and an additional utility room has space for your laundry appliances.
The wonderful outlook is echoed upstairs in each of the three bedrooms. Opening onto a wrap-around balcony, the principal bedroom produces a truly tranquil feel and benefits from a wall of fitted wardrobes. Two further bedrooms (one with fitted wardrobes) produce an ideal amount of flexible family accommodation and a family bathroom has a full size bath and separate shower cubicle.
Downstairs the basement includes a workshop and store rooms.
Situation
Located on the edges of Streat close to the South Downs National Park, the delightful village of Streat is surrounded by beautiful natural scenery. Nearby Hassocks offers excellent transport links and benefits from a bustling High Street with restaurants, independent shops and convenience stores, a monthly farmers’ market offering local produce, and a mainline train station with fast and frequent services to London Bridge/Victoria (approx. 55 minutes) and the South Coast. The M23/A23 provides good access to Gatwick and the national motorway airport. The semi-rural location allows for stunning local walks over the Downs at Ditchling Beacon and the Devil’s Dyke and leisure pursuits such as golf at Hassocks Golf Club and Singing Hills, racing at Brighton and Plumpton, showjumping at Hickstead and sailing from Brighton Marina.
Outside
A long private driveway leads up to the house giving a real sense of the outstanding natural beauty that surrounds it. Encompassed by eighteen acres of grounds, fields and paddocks, the rich greenery of mature trees lend a vibrant backdrop and steps lead up to the covered doorway.
With fourteen stables, a hay barn, static caravans, a warehouse and a training ring, there is ample scope for equestrian families.
