The Property
Frogmore is a charming property tucked away in the country hamlet of Bepton and is set in delightful secluded gardens with views towards the South Downs. Built of stone and brick under a clay tiled roof, the house is approached down a gravelled driveway leading to a generous parking area for several cars. The original stone cottage was built in 1840 and has been extended and modernised over the years to its current layout.

The spacious hallway leads to a generous triple aspect sitting room with a charming open fireplace and double doors to the garden. The dining room features a wood burning stove, lovely exposed beams and an original stone wall. There is also a dual aspect study/family room overlooking the gardens towards the South Downs and a hallway cloakroom. The fully fitted kitchen has lovely views of the garden and adjoining fields. An adjacent utility room provides access to an enclosed rear porch leading to further storage rooms and a workshop which has the potential to be used as an office or studio.

The first floor has a generous main bedroom with eaves storage, three further double bedrooms, a family bathroom and shower room.

Gardens and Grounds
There is a wonderful open vista leading up to Frogmore and the area to the east is bounded by a belt of ancient woodland. The garden surrounds the property and is mainly laid to lawn with mature shrubs and trees. There are areas of wild meadow, fruit trees and woodland featuring a natural pond. There are several outbuildings currently used for storage, some of which may have the potential to be incorporated into the house subject to the usual planning consents. In total, the grounds extend to approximately 1.69 acres.
