A beautiful Victorian semi detached family house having been substantially enlarged and exquisitely updated with contemporary landscaped gardens and off street parking
Guide Price £950,000
Ditchling, nestled within the South Downs National Park, is a historic village playing host to a selection of local shops, cafes, a church and two public houses which include The Bull, an award-winning gastro pub. The larger village of Hassocks is a short drive away, as is the city of Brighton and Hove, both offering mainline train connections to London as well as a greater array of shops and restaurants. This area of Sussex also benefits from a variety of superb private and state schools for all ages, within easy reach of the village.
This striking semi detached Victorian home has been substantially and sympathetically extended, effortlessly blending period charm with modern design. The ground floor offers a wealth of reception space with two elegant rooms positioned at the front of the house with the family room benefiting from a focal wood burning stove. To the rear, the heart of the home is a stunning kitchen/dining room, showcasing vaulted ceilings, purposefully exposed beams and expansive bi- fold doors that open directly onto the landscaped garden and patio area. The bespoke kitchen is beautifully appointed with a range of luxury integrated appliances and a central island unit, while underfloor heating runs throughout the addition, adding a layer of modern comfort to the timeless character. The first floor provides three well proportioned bedrooms and a stylish family bathroom all finished to a high standard. Occupying the second floor, the principal suite offers wonderful space complete with a dedicated dressing area and a luxurious en-suite bathroom. The rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped in a sleek contemporary style featuring a large terrace with an integrated barbeque and seating area. Steps lead to a level lawn, bordered by well stocked shrub and plant beds and complemented by a timber clad garden studio and attached workshop, both equipped with light and power and having a multitude of uses including home office. Mature shrubs and quintessential cottage planting provide colour and depth interspersed and border the wonderful garden spaces. A private driveway provides off street parking for two vehicles.
