An attractive, light, double fronted period four bedroom, three reception room house, with a large garden, a spacious terrace, and panoramic views over downland and the Weald. The house has an Arts and Crafts feel and with many original features. Totally re-furbished in 2022, the period feel of the house has been carefully maintained, whilst being insulated to a high standard. Farrow and Ball paints have been used throughout and a large terrace created to make the most of the outstanding views. The front door opens to a spacious and light partly-double height hall with access to the terrace and views through to the countryside beyond. Rooms open to either side. Engineered oiled oak floors have been laid throughout the ground floor, which includes a large double aspect drawing room with a wood burning stove, and original beamed ceiling, a bay window to the front, and with double doors to a glazed garden room overlooking the rear garden. To the other sided of the hall is a further reception room, currently a music room, with large bay window to the front, and attractive original beamed ceiling and picture rail. The large kitchen diner/ family room has large dual aspect sliding doors taking advantage of the magnificent views, and opening again, to the generous terrace. With bespoke shelving and limestone work surfaces, over the floor units, there is a range cooker and separate double oven with microwave. From the kitchen there is a utility room with extra storage and a door to the gated side access. There is a useful downstairs cloakroom with a shower. On the first floor there are painted floors throughout. The spacious landing with useful eaves storage and window to the views beyond, opens to a large double aspect master bedroom with ensuite bathroom. There is an attractive family bathroom with period radiator and very large walk-in shower. The second bedroom is again dual aspect to spectacular views.

The house is approached through its own driveway and front garden with off road parking. The front garden has a lawn and planting areas for shrubs and annuals. To the rear the enclosed garden has two large lawns with side beds planted with established shrubs and trees. At the furthest end of the large garden, there is an attractive original wall and again to the right boundary. The large limestone and gravel terrace has a curving brick staircase with an adjoining sloping bed and railings from Offham Forge. The base for the original greenhouse is at the end of the garden and there are attractive original brick paths meandering through the whole garden. A wonderful sunny family house with a huge terrace to spill out onto for meals and views to take your breath away.
