Features and description
A beautifully restored Grade II listed cottage with a stunning southerly outlook in the heart of the South Downs National Park.
A very pretty Grade II listed property which, we believe, was built in around 1550 in the medieval hall-house style; very similar to one of the cottages located today at the Weald and Downland Open Air Museum, known as Pendean. We understand that the property was originally the farmhouse for Leggs Farm until it was converted into three cottages, with subsequent additions. The cottage most recently has undergone an extensive and sympathetic restoration throughout, which today provides a stunning family home with exposed beams
and Inglenook fireplace.
Leggs Lane is situated on the edge of the Downland village of Heyshott, which has a pub, church, village hall and farm shop. The village lies within the South Downs National Park and has the back drop of the South Downs, with wonderful views and many footpaths and bridleways directly from the house for walking and riding.
The historic cathedral city of Chichester offers comprehensive shopping facilities and a choice of social and recreational activities, all of which are easily accessible through the mainly level pedestrian areas of the beautifully preserved city. Cultural activities include the Pallant House Gallery and Festival Theatre. There are renowned schools in the area, both in the public and private sector, which includes the highly popular Seaford College and Midhurst Rother College.
Events and sporting activities in the area include the Goodwood Festival of Speed and Revival events for motoring enthusiasts, horseracing at Goodwood and Fontwell racecourses, polo at nearby Cowdray Park, golf at Goodwood, and bathing off the beaches at the Witterings. Chichester Harbour has a multitude of moorings (subject to availability). Other local attractions include: the Weald and Downland Open Air Museum (home of the BBC's "The Repair Shop"), West Dean Gardens, Goodwood House and Petworth House.
