This tranquil no through road has only 4 detached luxury homes on it facing a tree-lined green with a pond. Built in traditional Sussex style with beautiful architectural detailing including knapped flint, expert landscaping delivers a particularly inviting approach to this large home and its off street parking with space for 3 large cars. Inside, this big, bright home blends a sophisticated lifestyle with home comforts including energy efficient windows and doors, and solid venetian blinds in all rooms except the garage. Through the front door, a bright hallway has a flawless finish- and discreet guest w.c.
To your right, an inviting home office is big enough to share with inspiring views over the lily planted pond. Across the hall, the sophisticated living room has picture perfect leafy views, streamlined storage and plenty of space where friends and family can relax and enjoy a real flame effect fire. At the far end, glazed French doors frame the garden and open to the high- spec kitchen diner, perfect for everyday but also for parties.
A glamorous, sun-lit sanctuary lined with glass, the kitchen dining room is a beauty with a choice of ambient lighting for the evenings. Bi-folding doors in the east wall fold away to the dynamic landscaping of the extensive garden and there is plenty of space for a big family table where guests can relax – amazingly unseen! High spec, the streamlined kitchen is safely tucked away from the social flow and has plenty of storage topped by glittering quartz. Good to go, top grade appliances include a Bosch touch induction hob beneath a Faber fan, twin Bosch grill/fan ovens are at eye level, and a dishwasher is also integrated for you. A wine cooler is an added bonus to the integrated fridge and freezer, and tucked away, the meticulous attention to detail continues in the spacious utility which has ample storage, power and plumbing for 2 machines and a door through to the gym/ salon.
A good size with air con already in place, the gym/ salon has plumbing, power and the wired in fire alarm system extends into this space as well. There is an impressive glass entrance behind the wooden doors from the off street parking as well as an internal door to a secure courtyard with a gate to the parking and another to the garden.
A big sun trap, the garden is thoughtfully landscaped for family friendly al fresco summers. By the house, the large, prime composite deck looks over a wildflower garden to help our precious pollinators and has space for both a seating and eating area. Wide, shallow steps lead to the sculpted lawn, flat enough for ball games – a feature not always easy to find on the South Downs. Bordered by beds where mature shrubs, climbers and seasonal flowers provide privacy and scent it is also child and pet secure, and at the far end, there’s a seating area for catch ups when children or guests have retired for the night.
Upstairs, a bright landing has an organised airing cupboard and a hatch to the attic which may be possible to extend into, stnc.
At the top of the stairs, the first of the double bedrooms has garden views, and is currently used as a dressing room. Central to this level, the light, airy bathroom has a shower above the bath and traditional fittings. Next door, also with views over the leafy back garden, the second of the double bedrooms is not overlooked and has both a mirrored and an oak fronted wardrobe. Quiet and comfortable at the front of the house, the third family room is a restful retreat looking over the pond and has a deep, walk in closet.
Completely private, the principal bedroom is a peaceful refuge with views over the leafy green. Beautifully decorated with a wall of mirrored wardrobes to reflect its unique setting, it’s a dream come true complete with a chic en-suite shower room.
