Riddens Farmhouse is a wonderful example of Victorian architecture, classically proportioned, with high ceilings, pine panelling, cornice detail, original pine staircase and deep set architraves, now in need of some updating.

The property offers light and very spacious accommodation over two floors and has been a much loved family home, providing comfort and elegance for both family life and entertaining.

There is a large 31' formal sitting/dining room with large square bay windows which face south. The kitchen is double aspect, reminiscent of a bygone era, with a two oven, oil fired AGA and space for a breakfast table. To the side of this room is a snug which opens onto the glorious gardens and grounds beyond. In addition there is a well appointed utility room, with door leading outside, a family room with open fireplace, a study and a cloakroom complete the ground floor accommodation.

Leading up the turned pine staircase with feature arch window on the upper landing are seven double bedrooms, leading off a generous landing. The bedrooms are flooded with natural light and there are two family bathrooms and a plethora of built-in storage.

Riddens Farmhouse is set on a large, beautifully landscaped plot of circa 3.8 acres with wonderful gardens, terraces and views across the Sussex countryside. There is a large parking area to the side of the property and a lovely stone wall which wraps around the main house.

The gardens are quite magical, full of romance with formal hedges and roses, beautiful mature specimen trees and herbaceous and perennial borders.
