Why you’ll like it:
A listed treasure, this beautiful home in an exclusive location opens to a living dining room of timeless elegance. Tastefully decorated in historic hues with stripped floorboards to ensure a fuss free flow, 3.63x 3.45m (11’10 x 11’3) delivers a perfect balance between private comfort and enjoying company. There is ample floorspace for a sofa and a table, and the cast iron wood burning stove offers a warm welcome.
Next door, the user friendly kitchen dining room has plenty of storage and practical working surfaces. Perfect for everyday but also for parties everything flows from the gas hob and oven, and it looks over the garden. There’s 3.63 x 2.54m (11’10 x 8’4) to play with – and it’s sociable with a breakfast bar cleverly tucked beneath the stairs.
Across a lobby with access to the garden, the spacious bathroom has natural light and stylish tiling with a rain fall shower head and a wand shower above the bath.

Outside, the garden is a restful retreat. By the house, a private courtyard leads to the brick built out building of 3.75 x 1.43m (12’5 x 6’) which is currently used as an all-weather space for entertaining as it leads through to the main garden but with insulation, power, water and smart lighting it offers versatile options – and it may be worth noting that no. 157 up the road was given planning consent to incorporate their outbuilding into the kitchen, stnc and regs. There is a long lawn made child and pet secure by fencing and at the far end, a big, private sun deck has power, ideal for an al fresco lifestyle. Designed for low maintenance, you’ll have more time to have fun in the sun.

Upstairs, the first of the double bedroom has fitted wardrobes to fill and relaxing views over a sea of gardens which also makes it unusually private for this fabulous location. At the front, the calmly decorated principal bedroom has plenty of character of its own, 3.45 x 3.08m (11’3 x 10’1) in which to unwind and organised storage.

Agent Says:
“Radiating historic charm with a beautiful sunny garden and an outhouse for work, rest or play, this spacious home is in a great village location within a few mins walk of shops and a popular school with easy access to a station, the National Park and the A23.”

Owner’s Secret:
This wonderful historic house is a light, sociable and happy home. The garden is a private refuge which we have always enjoyed, and is perfect for entertaining. The location is ideal with the shops, station, schools and park all within easy distance, and it is lovely being at the centre of village life, a few steps to the recreation ground, home to the historic St Lawrence Fair and host of the Hurst Festival. Being on the high street, it is easy to pop out for a pint of milk, to go for a leisurely stroll at the weekend or to visit one of the excellent restaurants, the pub or to pick up a takeaway in the evening. The train station is just a few minutes’ drive away, and serves Burgess Hill, Gatwick and Brighton if you want to go to the beach, and the trains also go to many London stations as well as further afield.”
