Description
A handsome and spacious four bedroom family home located on the slopes of the downs in an elevated and secluded garden plot in excess of a quarter of an acre (measured via Promap). The property is understood to have been constructed in the 1950s and has been considerately modernised and re-modelled by the present owners in order to maximise the wonderful views across the village and Sussex countryside. Recent works have included a state of the art hot water system, supplemented by a new gas boiler, steps leading to a large decked veranda with wrought iron railings leads to the full length glazed entrance door with fixed glazed panels either side. A further wooden door, the original front door, opens into the reception hallway with solid oak flooring, to the left is a reception room which offers a double aspect with large picture window to the front. The sitting room enjoys a delightful triple aspect with large picture window to the front and glazed French doors leading into the rear garden. There is a large recessed area for an entertainment centre which has shelving and storage facilities. The kitchen has a range of bespoke, hand painted floor and wall mounted units with solid wood work surfaces. There are two large cupboards, tiled floor, one and a half bowl sink with mixer taps, eye level oven and microwave combi oven with plate warmer, 5 ring gas hob with stainless steel extractor hood, integral dishwasher and fridge (all appliances are Neff).
