5 bedroom detached house for sale

Set toward the end of a private lane on the edge of Hill Brow and Farther Common, this individual detached family home offers an exceptional opportunity to enjoy tranquility, space and direct access to the surrounding South Downs countryside and woodland. The property sits within generous and wonderfully private gardens of approximately two-thirds of an acre, complemented by an oversized garage and newly landscaped driveway providing extensive parking.

The accommodation extends to around 2700 sqft across three floors and has been designed to provide versatile and practical living. An impressive entrance hall creates an immediate sense of scale, offering access to the principal reception rooms and staircases to the upper and lower levels. The main living room enjoys a double aspect and a multi fuel log burner, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The open plan kitchen, dining and living area forms a superb hub of the home, complete with quality fitted units, granite work surfaces, space for appliances and an additional log burner. This floor also includes a delightful bedroom with a modern en-suite and a door opening to a private balcony. A half landing from the main staircase leads to a study or fifth bedroom along with a cloakroom.

The lower ground floor provides an excellent opportunity for those seeking self-contained accommodation for a relative or older child. A practical laundry room, easily adaptable into a kitchen, opens to the outside. There is a comfortable sitting room with an adjacent shower room and bi-fold doors to the terrace, along with a spacious bedroom and a generous boiler and airing cupboard.

The first floor features a superb principal suite with a dressing area and en-suite shower room, alongside a further double bedroom and a family bathroom.

The property is approached via a gated driveway and is well screened from neighbouring homes, creating a real sense of peace and privacy. Steps lead to a paved courtyard and the front door, with access on both sides of the house to the beautifully landscaped rear garden and additional grounds. A raised sandstone terrace is perfect for outdoor dining and overlooks the garden, where an octagonal summer house enjoys far-reaching views towards the woodland. A wrought iron spiral staircase leads down to the lower patio, which features an ornamental pond and a substantial lawn. To the westerly side, a further area of sloping, wooded grounds provides additional natural interest.

Planning Permission has recently been granted for significant enhancements, including creating a new single storey extension to the side of the existing garage, a new adjoining garage and replacing the former stable block with a detached home office or gym.
