Shiprods Manor is believed to originate from the late 1800's, with Edwardian additions dated as 1905, and offers spacious family accommodation arranged over three floors. It is approached from the lane over a long private drive, bordered by lightly wooded parkland on either-side and terminating in a large gravel parking area to the front of the house. The accommodation, including the attached garage, extends in all to over 7,000 sq ft and from all principal rooms there are fine rural views stretching beyond the paddocks, and over the surrounding countryside to the South Downs in the distance. Leading from a spacious reception hall is the drawing room and dining room, both elegant well-proportioned reception rooms with high ceilings. Beyond is a large kitchen/breakfast room and spacious laundry and storage facilities. The second floor accommodation, which includes a large studio/office/games room, could provide a separate apartment if required.<br/><br/><b>Outside</b><br/><br/>There is a brick and tiled stable block comprising five stables with central store/feed room.

Stone terracing adjoins the south and west elevations of the house with sweeping lawns beyond, inset and bordered by fine mature trees. To one side is a walled courtyard creating an entertaining area with a barbeque.
