Guide Price £1,200,000

Lying at the foot of the South Downs, Keymer is a quaint village playing host to a parade of local shops and a public house and church. The private lane on which Broadhill Farmhouse is situated provides direct access onto a wide all-weather Bridleway/footpath that leads to Oldlands Mill. From here the public footpaths take you either to Ditchling village, or into Hassocks village via a single track lane/footpath which leads onto the southern section of Ockley Lane. The larger town of Burgess hill, with its mainline train station is a short drive away and provides regular rail services to London. There are an array of local state and private schools for all ages.

Set in a secluded yet well connected location, this detached six bedroom property beautifully showcases the timeless appeal of period homes. Rich in Georgian origins, the property presents a rare opportunity to create a home that blends classic character with contemporary living. The ground floor offers generous living space, comprising three well proportioned reception rooms. At the heart of the home is the expansive drawing room complete with exposed beams and a striking focal fireplace, an ideal setting for entertaining guests. Flowing seamlessly from the sitting room is a thoughtfully updated kitchen including ample built in storage and a centrally positioned island unit. The additional reception rooms lend themselves well to a variety of uses, whether as a cosy winter snug or a dedicated home office for those working remotely. A convenient downstairs shower room adds to the overall practicality of the layout. Upstairs, four spacious double bedrooms are arranged off the landing. The two front facing rooms benefit from large sash windows allowing natural light to pour in. The family bathroom is traditionally styled and equipped with a panelled bath, bidet, and w.c. suite ideal for busy households. The remaining two double bedrooms are situated to the rear of the property within the annexe, accessed via a conjoining hallway from the kitchen of the main house. Thoughtfully designed to be fully self-contained, this versatile space includes its own kitchen, bathroom and a comfortable living area offering complete independence from the main residence. Whether utilised for multi-generational living, accommodation for an au pair or as a welcoming space for visiting guests, the annexe provides exceptional flexibility to suit a variety of lifestyle needs. The external grounds are truly captivating with mature trees, established shrubs and hidden corners giving the garden a distinct and enchanting atmosphere. Whether accessed via one of two rear doors or the wrought iron side gate, the expansive wrap around lawn and paved patio areas offer an idyllic setting for alfresco dining or a quiet retreat. Further enhancing the property are several useful outbuildings including greenhouses, sheds and a detached double garage. A spacious driveway provides off street parking for multiple vehicles.
