Enjoy the easy flow of this light-filled home where all of the elegant rooms embrace open views, making it unusually private. Tucked away on a tranquil no through lane with grass verges, which most people don’t even know is there, inside the spacious interior blends sophisticated living with subtle home comforts including the installation of energy efficient windows and doors, and old school style radiators.

At the front, a large lawn and smart, off street parking delivers an impressive approach and there is a detached garage just by the side gate to the garden. Through the front door, a broad hallway is inviting with storage and a stylish oak, glass and steel staircase rising to the upper floor.
To your left, the sunny living room has a ceiling speaker and plenty of space for sofas to deliver a great balance between private comfort and enjoying company. A broad bay window bathes the room in sunlight and there’s an easy flow to the kitchen diner which opens to the garden for seamless, al fresco entertaining.

Big and bright, the kitchen diner has been extended and stretches from front to back. Designed to be sociable, a central breakfast bar sits between the dining area and the working areas of the kitchen, so people can join you as you cook on the integrated hob but you can lift hot pots out of the ovens safely away from the in/out flow. Shaker units conceal sophisticated storage, the working surfaces are solid wood and the dishwasher is integrated for you.

Outside, the big garden is a tranquil sun trap, open to the east and west so there is always somewhere to sit in the sun. The spacious dining terrace is level with the house – a feature hard to find on the South Downs-and it’s made private by painted walls with raised beds for scent (or fresh herbs for the table). Looking over a lawn large enough for games, the borders have mature shrubs and plants for all year interest. The garage is reached through the gate, although you have plentiful off street and free street parking, so it could offer options, stnc.

Returning inside, the ground floor bedroom is a spacious double which although of dual aspect, so light and airy, it is not overlooked. There’s an entire wall of custom made wardrobes to fill, and next door, the luxury finish in the bathroom includes an iridescent border, a fashionable dual head shower system above the chunky, contemporary tub and a warming rails for towels.
Upstairs, two bright and cheerful bedrooms have ample, organised storage and with tree top views as far as the eye can see, both are private and peaceful.
