An enchanting spacious detached cottage enjoying secluded gardens in a peaceful setting. The property is of brick and tile construction, the original part having colour-washed walls and exposed oak joists and rafters; a later extension is in stock brick. The garden is on two levels and both main bedrooms have French windows opening onto the higher lawn and there is a delightful walled courtyard approached from the sitting room. A buyer will see the opportunity to further modernise and improve one of Steyning's gems. The majority of windows are double glazed and there is gas-fired central heating to radiators.

It is also convenient for primary and secondary schools, leisure centre with swimming pool, library, modern health centre, and churches. Steyning lies at the foot of the beautiful South Downs National Park which provides lovely walking country.
