DESCRIPTION

This attractive red brick Victorian semi detached house stands adjacent to the village tennis courts overlooking the park, right in the very heart of this historic and bustling village. First floor views to the south open up the Downs with a glorious panorama from the master bedroom. Extended about 30 years ago the property now has a spectacular orangery at the back creating a super spacious additional living area, the second floor has been converted to provide a further bedroom and bathroom and a useful ground floor WC added. Approached via Pitt Lane off the High Street the house is literally a few minutes stroll of the shops and facilities, yet enjoys a total peace, being located at the end of this no through roadway.

A shared entrance driveway leads to hard standing and parking for several cars. A storm porch protects the front door which opens into a capacious hall with stairs to first floor and connecting doorways to the sitting room and kitchen. The separate dining room has a wide opening from the living room area and both these reception rooms have fireplaces. The kitchen is well fitted with cupboards having black granite work tops and includes an electric oven and gas hob. There is a space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble drier in a plumbed cupboard and room for a standard dishwasher and fridge. The Travatine floor tiles extend into the orangery with its huge skylight and double doors to the side. A useful cloakroom off the orangery completes the ground floor accommodation.

Upstairs the landing leads to 3 bedrooms and a family bathroom with airing cupboard. The southerly views from here are memorable. A further flight of stairs lead to a second floor landing with loft bedroom (skeilings) and dormer overlooking the park and a second shower room. The property has gas fired central heating and double glazed windows. Outside the boundary to the north is and east is of high brick wall with a pathway between the orangery and the wall. The main outdoor space is to the front, being utterly secluded and essentially maintenance free, laid to gravel and paving, facing directly south. In one corner stands a small octagonal garden room. Offered with immediate vacant possession, internal inspection of this rarely available location is highly recommended. Council tax band C. Mid Sussex.
