Property description

Charming red brick detatched three bedroom family home in quintessentially south downs sussex village of ditchling, with expansive garden, parking and garage.

Guide price £1,100,000 - £1,200,000

Set on a highly sought-after private road within the South Downs National Park, the cul-de-sac of Shirleys has a history from 1631 when the land was given as a marriage settlement to Henry and Sarah Shirley. In the 1940s the land was an apple orchard and many of the trees remain in the gardens of the present houses.
Quinton Lodge has one of the largest West facing plots which is divided into three garden rooms, a main lawn, a small three tree apple orchard and an area which would make an ideal vegetable plot. At the other side of the hedge are horses and sometimes pygmy goats.
Upon entering, the ground floor opens to a dining room with double aspect windows, this leads to a triple aspect sitting room with beamed fireplace and fitted dresser with cupboards and open shelves. A second reception room with fireplace and tiled shelf recess has sliding windows to the south aspect side garden.
Adjacent to the dining room is a kitchen with all Bosch up-to-date appliances. The first floor is home to three good-sized bedrooms, one with an en-suite shower room. All have deep fitted wardrobe cupboards and there is a family bathroom on this level, as well as a loft hatch with pull-down ladder and lighting.
The attractive house is set back from the private road and has a gravel driveway with garage and parking for several cars. The front garden has a lawn bordered by high hedges, with access to the garage.
The large rear, with its westerly orientation is mainly laid to lawn bordered by plants, trees and shrubs. A spacious terrace area, ideal for outdoor dining, is surrounded by established trees and tall hedging providing a sense of seclusion.
The attractive, purpose-built garden room with WC offers a separate office space which could alternatively be used as a teenager’s room.
