House For Sale £2,000,000
The Manor House is a striking brick-built residence which has been expertly restored to luxury contemporary tastes whilst retaining its array of handsome period features. This includes fine stone mullion leaded windows, lofty ceiling heights, exposed beams and original fireplaces. The accommodation flows from a central reception hall with stairs to the cellar, which comprises a cool utility space/wine store, cloakroom and steps with double doors opening to two unique lower-level covered areas with stone-built arches. The ground floor comprises a drawing room, with a vast inglenook timber beamed fireplace, log-burning stove and flagstone heart and a family room. The stylish ground floor bathroom features a beamed ceiling and a freestanding rolltop bathtub.
Adjacent is a tranquil bedroom with a view and access directly to the grounds. There is a library and playroom, both with direct access onto the decked balcony. The substantial kitchen/dining
room is well-appointed and of a traditional and in-keeping style, with a large central island and inset modern induction hob, a range of bespoke neutral shaker-style cabinetry and stylish granite
worktops, a dual butler sink and inset aga range stove. Tall vaulted ceilings with exposed timbers add to the feeling of open space, with wooden framed glazed doors opening onto the sunny south-facing rear terrace. On the first floor are six tasteful bedrooms. The principal suite has a dressing room and bathroom. An additional bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes, a charming window seat, an original arched stone doorway and a rolltop bathtub with a peaceful view. An elegant family bathroom and a further family shower room complete the first floor.
Situated within the coveted village of Chiddingly, close to the popular South Downs National Park, the village offers an array of amenities including a local shop, two public houses, a primary school and church. The renowned opera house at Glyndebourne is within easy reach, whilst historic Lewes is just over 10 miles distant, boasting an even more comprehensive range of amenities, as well as a mainline rail station with regular connections to London (Victoria) in just over an hour.
The property is approached via a private pillared entranceway enclosed via wrought iron gates which open onto the driveway, sweeping alongside the handsome home, whilst the double garage with attached garden store provides additional covered parking. The property sits well in its generous plot, which features a wide expanse of west-facing level lawn bordered by mature trees and a curved paved sun terrace ideal for dining al fresco. An additional south-facing paved terrace sits beside the formal landscaped garden, which is divided into neat level lawned sections with
topiary, separated by rich red-brick and stone paving, beside a multitude of arranged, amply stocked and vibrant flowerbeds. There are also a variety of additional useful buildings, to include a second garden store, log store, large greenhouse, wood store and tool store.
