8 bedroom house for sale

The house offers a balance of both formal and informal living spaces. The grand wide reception hall leads to the substantial formal drawing and dining rooms, each defined by generous proportions, high ceilings and period detailing. Complementing these are a relaxed sitting room, a sizeable utility/laundry room and guest cloakroom and a substantial basement having a wine cellar with racking for 850 bottles and space for further lifestyle use.
The heart of the home is a well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room, finished in a traditional country style and forming the natural hub for everyday family life. From here, a thoughtfully conceived two-storey extension opens into a striking double-height studio/library, having bespoke shelving and a mezzanine-level office. This versatile space, with its fully air-conditioned office enjoying far-reaching views to the South Downs, is ideal for modern living — whether as a creative studio or work-from-home retreat.
The extension also links seamlessly to a series of converted outbuildings, now forming a spacious self-contained annexe — perfectly suited to guests, extended family, or staff.
To the first floor the principal suite is positioned to enjoy dual-aspect views across the gardens and countryside, with views north to the South Downs and the Cathedral spire, complemented by extensive fitted wardrobes and an en suite bathroom. A further four generous double bedrooms occupy the first floor, each benefiting from excellent natural light, ceiling heights, and period character.
On the half landing to the second floor stairs lead to a substantial attic room giving great scope for future adaptation, subject to the necessary consents
The second floor provides two further large bedrooms, both enjoying uninterrupted views of the surrounding landscape.
