Located in one of West Sussex’s prettiest villages, bordering the rolling hills of the South Downs National Park, this generous two-bedroom bungalow is brimming with potential to add value and space for families and professionals alike. Hurstpierpoint get the best of town and country life with a vibrant village high street and a palpable sense of community which has led to its popularity for decades. Excellent train and road links to the capital and down to the coast also appeal to commuters who wish for a peaceful sanctuary to come home to each day after long hours at work.
Beautifully maintained by the current owner over 40-years of living here, it is possible to simply move straight in, yet the size of the plot and ability to extend into the loft will excite developers and families looking for additional bedroom space. It is rare to see homes of this calibre, with so much potential, come to market in this area, so it will be coveted by many.

Why you’ll like it:
Set back from the road behind a parking forecourt and an immaculate front lawn, this semi-detached bungalow is unassuming in red brick, with the classic gable and large windows expected of the era.
Stepping inside it feels immediately more spacious than the sweet exterior implies. The hallway is wide and welcoming, and the rooms are generous and naturally light. The sunny living room culminates in a sizeable conservatory which has been expertly maintained to look like new. In the lounge, there is a vast amount of space for formal dining alongside the open York stone fireplace and for comfortable seating in the evening. The decoration is smart and neutral to suit all styles of furnishing, creating homely spaces for use all year round.
Conveniently next door, the kitchen is well-appointed with ample storage at both base and eye levels alongside an integrated oven and gas hob, leaving space for other freestanding pieces. During summer, there is easy access to the garden for dining alfresco, plus the side door allows you to bring in muddy boots and the weekly shopping without traipsing through the house.
The garden is a delight with a lush green lawn surrounded by mature shrubs and flowering plants which bring colour, scent and wildlife into the garden while providing a lovely backdrop to many of the rooms. As a south facing space, it is a suntrap during summer and it is barely overlooked, with secure borders, so children can play in safety.
Returning inside, both bedrooms sit peacefully to the front of the house, away from the main living areas. They are double rooms with built-in wardrobes, and double-glazed windows to ensure a restful night’s sleep. They share use of a sizable shower room across the hall.
Agent’s thoughts:
This generous, chain free bungalow is immaculate throughout with a glorious garden, so you can move straight in, yet the potential to develop the plot is incredible – both up and out.
Owner’s thoughts:
“This house has been in our family for 40-years, so we have made so many memories here. The neighbours are lovely, and the location is amazing for convenience to the high street and the very best of country and village life. We have enjoyed many summer days in the garden, so it is a wrench to see it go. We only hope another family moves in and enjoys the space as we have.”
