A beautiful period farmhouse with English country garden, detached tithe barn and a Steddle studio, occupying a particularly attractive plot of just under an acre. The farmhouse has immense character with exposed beams throughout, all with excellent head heights, and a magnificent inglenook fireplace.

The house is listed Grade II, with the listing stating “C18 front to an older building” believed to date from the Tudor period. The main elevations are of beautiful mellow stone, the stone mullions, flying buttresses and leaded light windows under a hipped and tiled roof. Internally there is some magnificent oak joinery with heavy oak ceiling and wall beams throughout, and a superb working inglenook fireplace in the main sitting room. There are four double bedrooms on the first floor with a further two accessed by separate staircases in the roof space.

The ground floor reception rooms are full of character, with the sitting room having door onto the south facing loggia and garden, a separate dining room with fireplace and study, whilst the kitchen has doors to a three-room cellar.

The house requires modernisation and refurbishment and is grade listed, and within the conservation area in one of the most popular and sought after villages in the South Downs, and will provide a lovely family home once completed.

Of particular note, is the lovely garden and environment. The rear gardens are beautifully divided into several sections which flow incredibly well into each other. They include a kitchen garden with a greenhouse, an orchard and a wonderfully secluded swimming pool area with flagstone paving. The main garden consists primarily of lawn, with the main paths lined with rose bushes.

The grounds face predominantly south are is away from main roads and passing traffic. The tithe barn provides useful storage and covered parking and has an adjacent period workshop, and there is a Steddle studio with kitchen, bathroom, sitting room and bedroom, which may be deployed in any number of different ways. There is extensive private parking between the house and tithe barn.

Bury is one of the oldest villages in Sussex, and is mentioned in the Doomsday book. It is a particularly attractive period village leading down to Bury Wharf and the River Arun, with Dorset House School dating back to the time of Edward the Confessor. The village has a thriving local community, with a popular parish hall and church, and a village pub. The village is in the heart of the South Downs National Park, around 5 miles north of Arundel and south-west of Pulborough.
