House For Sale £325,000
The cottage is in the middle of a small Victorian terrace with white-painted, rendered elevations and small-paned windows under a pitched and slated roof located in this pretty lane with a south-facing garden backing onto the millstream. The accommodation and pretty garden are perfect for a holiday retreat, popular holiday let, or simply a cosy country cottage. There is gas-fired central heating to radiators. No ongoing chain.
Mouse Lane is a peaceful setting just off the northern end of Steyning High Street, a few minutes' walk from the town centre. It is a deeply-cut lane leading to Wiston House and with direct access to miles of beautiful countryside on the South Downs. On the south side of the lane is a row of cottages built by the Breach family in 1845 and named in affection for the first member of the family to come to Steyning, George Thomas Breach, who came from Portsmouth. The house is within the Conservation Area and close to shops, Post Office, library, modern health centre, etc. There is a wide choice of leisure activities available in Steyning, and the sports centre with swimming pool is close by.
Approximate Distances: Steyning is a small town of historical interest which lies at the foot of the South Downs National Park about five miles from the coast at Shoreham-by-Sea (main line railway station to London Victoria) and eight miles from Worthing. Brighton is about 11 miles and Horsham 14, and Gatwick Airport can normally be reached in about 40 minutes by car.
