Steeped in history, Kerwood House now presents an exquisitely refurbished, award winning family home. The current owners have undertaken a masterly remodelling of the interiors which includes carefully restored original window shutters, concealed underfloor heating on the ground floor and bathrooms on each level. This sympathetic restoration has been recognised by the Sussex Heritage Trust and awarded a small-scale residential award in 2020, as well as being featured in a number of magazine articles.

On entering the home, the high ceilings and stylish-presentation is immediately apparent, with the ground floor offering a classic-contemporary kitchen with adjoining dining and garden rooms providing a sociable heart of the home. Bespoke navy cabinetry in the kitchen is topped by white Carrera quartz surfaces and includes an impressive wall of display shelving providing a modern-take on a Victorian dresser. High quality appliances, a Quooker hot water tap and space for an American style fridge/freezer complete this impressive room.
The lower ground floor rooms are cleverly designed, with one of the rooms featuring double doors which open on to the large light well, and the other providing a cosier environment with scope for flexible living space according to needs. The elegant drawing room on the first floor offers a relaxed setting, with a flexible-use study adjacent.
The bedroom accommodation is arranged over the two upper floors, with the principal bedroom mirroring a boutique-style retreat with decorative vintage fireplace, excellent wardrobe storage and a truly luxurious en suite bathroom. This floor also provides a laundry room which has been designed with practicality and convenience in mind.
At the top of the house, two bedrooms are adjoined by a smart shower room and large storage cupboard.
