House For Sale £1,500,000
A sizable and unique, character filled property having been significantly updated and extended, situated in a highly enviable location with a beautiful landscaped and private rear garden
Ditchling, nestled within the South Downs National Park, is a historic village playing host to a selection of local shops, cafes, a church and two public houses which include The Bull, an award-winning gastro pub. The larger village of Hassocks is a short drive away, as is the city of Brighton and Hove, both offering mainline train connections to London as well as a greater array of shops and restaurants. This area of Sussex also benefits from a variety of superb private and state schools for all ages, within easy reach of the village.
Having been extended, re-configured and significantly updated over the years, ‘Three Beams’ is a unique period property situated in a quiet and enviable location within the village. There is a wealth of period and character features throughout with oak flooring to the majority of the ground floor along with vaulted ceilings in the family room and guest suite. Accessed via the reception hall, the large sitting room sits centrally within the property with bi-fold doors opening out onto the rear decked terrace and views over the landscaped gardens. A modern style burner sits proudly in front of a focal fair faced wall. The kitchen with a range of modern units and electric ‘Aga’ flows through to the dining and family area boasting a marvellous vaulted ceiling and 2 sets of bi-fold doors, leading out onto the rear decked terrace. 3 ground floor bedrooms reside on one side of the property with a modern fitted family bathroom. An en-suite shower room services the designated guest suite, which also benefits from a vaulted ceiling and patio doors out to the rear garden. A contemporary oak and glass staircase rises to the principal suite on the first floor, flooded with light from the french doors that open out onto a balcony with glass balustrade. The large en-suite bathroom houses a free standing slipper bath and separate shower, there is also an adjoining space acting as a dressing room. The wonderfully landscaped rear garden extends to the west and comprises multiple seating areas including a sizable elevated decked terrace that adjoins the rear of the property. The lawn runs to the end of the garden where there is a summer house currently being used as a games room. Strategic planting softens the garden, injecting colour throughout the seasons and creates a private space to enjoy all year round. An extensive shingle driveway at the front of the property provides ample parking for several cars along with access to the detached garage.
