3 bedroom detached house

Tangletrees sits in mature and private grounds of about seven acres, with a wide frontage facing the Downs in the thriving village of Graffham, which is located within the South Downs National Park. The village caters for day-to-day needs with an award-winning community owned village store, mobile post office (twice a week) and two public houses, most notably The Foresters Arms.

Dating we believe from the late 1940s, Tangletrees has been much enhanced during our client's ownership with a great focus on making the most of the outstanding views directly to the Downs.

To the ground floor are the spacious and bright reception rooms, all orientated due south with large windows. The living room is a well-proportioned room with an American log stove at its heart. The room also benefits from a folding stair access to an attic space above. This room has a long built-in window seat and enjoys the open views and across the front garden. The dining room is located adjacent to the living room and is conveniently located for the kitchen which has a Rayburn range, a separate electric oven, and generous pantry. A highlight to the ground floor is the studio/fourth bedroom which, with its triple aspect, is flooded with natural light throughout the day and has sliding door access that lead directly onto the front gardens. This room additionally benefits from a WC and a shower room.

To the first floor are two double and one single bedrooms and a family bathroom with separate WC.

While the property has been well maintained by its current owners, the house offers the incoming purchaser an excellent opportunity to adapt, extend or modernise subject to the usual consents.

The gardens and grounds of Tangletrees are a particular highlight of the property. Set in just under seven acres of formal gardens, paddocks and woodland, the plot is exceptional creating an extremely exciting and unique prospect to the market.

In addition to the two garden stores attached to the house (but accessible directly from the gardens), are a wonderful oak-framed garage, apple, and log store built in 2009, and a summer house.

The front gardens are formally arranged with lawns and well-stocked borders and are bounded by mixed hedging. There are also plentiful apple trees around the property. The remainder of the land comprises the rear garden, paddocks and woodland which are interspersed with walks, an attractive man-made pond, and areas of wildflowers. Other plants featured in the across the land are primroses, cowslips, wild orchids, bluebells and snakes head fritillary.
