Why You’ll Like It:
New life breathes through this stately Art Deco, semi-detached house with bright, classic interiors which is set well back from the quiet road by a long lawn surrounded by scented borders and a driveway leading to the gated garage. A loved family home for many years, all improvements have been unfailingly sympathetic to this spacious property where the sensitive blend of old and new begins with double glazing in the broad bays and oriel window and the original, sheltering porch remains. Inside the hallway is broad with good storage and ahead, ideal for entertaining, the gracious proportions of the living dining room provide an inviting space in which to spread your wings.
Sunlight streams through this room of understated elegance. A rounded, Art Deco bay almost fills the front wall, the ceiling is high and gleaming floorboards ensure a fuss free flow through French doors to the garden. With ample space for time together or for entertaining in relaxed seclusion whilst enjoying garden views, this is a restful retreat come rain or shine, with a flaming gas fire within the classic fireplace to bring a warm welcome.
There’s a level flow into the kitchen which also opens to the garden, ideal for pets or a growing family. Lined with windows it’s bright and cheerful both day and night with a choice of lighting levels. A classic black and white which won’t date, it’s well planned with streamlined units providing ample storage and practical working surfaces which flow well from the fabulous, Stoves muti-fuel range – which even has warming drawers.
Outside, the big garden is a tranquil sun trap, facing east but open to the south so it gets the sun for most of the day. The spacious dining terrace is level with the house – a feature hard to find on the South Downs- and it looks over a long lawn broad enough for games. Child and pet secure, the borders have mature shrubs and plants for all year interest and intended to be easy to maintain so you have more time to relax in the Sussex sunshine. The garage is reached through the gate, although as you have plentiful off street and free street parking, it could offer options, stnc.
Up newly carpeted stairs to hush any footfall, the big landing has access to the large attic which many neighbours have extended into with dormer windows, so this home could possibly grow with you stnc.
Quiet and comfortable at the back of the building with restful garden views, two bedrooms are ready to move into, one with a built in wardrobe. At the front of the house the principal bedroom is a peaceful refuge to return to at the end of the day. Bathed in sunshine there’s a generous 3.73 x 3.47m (12’3 x 11’5) in which to unwind and mirrored wardrobes to fill, and next door the family bathroom is light and airy with a shower over the bath.

Agent Says:
“Big and bright with large gardens at the front and back this stylish home is perfect for those who want to enjoy a sociable lifestyle but quiet nights within easy reach of Brighton, Burgess Hill, Lewes, Gatwick and London.”

Owner’s secret:
“Opening to the garden in summer, and with big windows in every room, the house is always light, even in winter. The easy, level flow of the ground floor is perfect for pets, a growing family and for entertaining – and the house has a great flow to the garden which has space for everyone of any age to enjoy, and being large enough for ball games means you don’t have to go to a park, you can just relax at home! Ideal if you work in the city or at the airports there are buses to the station if you don’t want to drive – or it’s about a 10 min cycle. If you have children, there’s a good school nearby and it’s easy to meet other local families either at the school gate or in the local parks, we have 2 parks within a 4 min drive although both are within a 10-15 min walk for older children. The area is safe and quiet with friendly and considerate neighbours, and good for dog owners as well as kids, there’s easy access to nature with countryside walks on the doorstep and the beaches of Hove between 20-30 mins drive.”
