A beautifully renovated family home in the South Downs National Park, offering striking symmetry, light-filled interiors, and seamless indoor-outdoor living. With five bedrooms, a stunning kitchen/family room, and landscaped gardens.
Approached by a gravel driveway, the symmetry is noticeable. Steps lead up to the entrance door, which opens to the reception hall. From here, stairs rise to the first-floor gallery, with doors leading to the office, sitting room, and glazed doors opening to the newly created kitchen/dining/family room.
The kitchen is centrally located, forming the true “heart” of the home, with bifold doors opening onto the rear terraces. It is fitted with wall, base, and drawer units, a hot water tap. Modern integrated appliances, and a large central island beneath an overhead lantern roof, allowing for an abundance of natural light. This space has underfloor heating, and seamlessly opens into the dining area which features a further set of bifold doors leading to the terrace.
The sitting room is a dual-aspect space with windows to the front and bi-folds to the rear, centred around a fire place. The property also includes a cloakroom, a utility/boot room, and a bike/cycle store – accessed by an internal door.
On the first floor, the galleried landing overlooks the reception hall and leads to five bedrooms and a family bathroom. Bedroom 1 benefits from an ensuite bathroom, while Bedroom 2 has an ensuite shower room.
The renovations extend beyond the house, transforming the outdoor spaces into a blend of terraces, lawns, and planted borders, all fully enclosed by mature hedges.
As part of the improvements, the property now features a smart integrated lighting and security camera system, electric roller doors for both the garage and workshop, and a newly installed boiler.

The next steps...
1
Establish funds
How will you fund the purchase?
Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.
Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.
To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.
They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
Their wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
They offer more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
They can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
They are typically easier to get in contact with, and are less bureaucratic.
However advantages of working with your bank are:
You may be able to build off an existing relationship (and gain discounts if you have a checking or savings account)
You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
Banks may be more accountable than a smaller shop
They may offer lower interest rates in some cases
Their ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.
