Chestnut House is one of a pair of attractive, individual, detached houses built in a Sussex style with brick and tile-hung elevations under a pitched and tiled roof, with modern double-glazed windows and gas-fired central heating to radiators. The principal rooms enjoy a southerly aspect with a lightly-wooded and semi-rural outlook with the Downland skyline beyond. A large covered porch and front door open to the impressive reception hall with cloakroom off, storage cupboards and double-height ceiling with galleried landing over. The reception rooms are open-plan with oak flooring, and the sitting room has a country fireplace with efficient wood-burning stove and French doors opening to the rear garden. There is a study alcove overlooking the driveway and dining room with bay window and return door to the hall. The spacious kitchen/breakfast room has bi-fold doors to the garden and is fitted to a high specification with polished stone work surfaces, central island and integrated appliances. On the first floor the light and spacious galleried landing overlooks the hall and has twin linen cupboards. There are four bedrooms; the principal bedroom has an en-suite bath and shower, there is an en-suite shower to the guest suite and a family shower room. There is ample parking, and the detached double garage has been divided to create an insulated home office/games room. The rear garden enjoys a southerly aspect with a paved area adjoining the house and a well-tended lawn bordering a narrow watercourse with a small bridge to a natural wooded area beyond.

Approached by a private drive shared with just one other similar home and set back from the picturesque village street, enjoying an open outlook to the rear. Bramber is known for its Norman castle ruins and spectacular earthworks and for the high proportion of character homes. It is a small community adjoining the South Downs National Park, built upon a natural causeway, which runs from the castle to the river with local shops across the bridge in Upper Beeding. Steyning with good shops, health centre, leisure centre and schools is about a mile away.

Shoreham-by-Sea on the south coast is about five miles (with mainline railway station) and the larger coastal towns of Worthing and Brighton are eight and twelve miles respectively. Horsham, Crawley and Gatwick can normally be reached in about 40 minutes by car.
