Guide Price £1,150,000
Albourne is a quaint village with a local village school and church, surrounded by beautiful farmland providing an excellent backdrop for walking and other recreational activities. The larger village of Hurstpierpoint is within walking distance and, with its bustling High Street, provides a comprehensive array of shopping, including a post office, butcher and delicatessen. Hassocks, with its mainline rail station providing easy links to Brighton and London, is the next village along. The area plays host to a number of highly regarded state and private schools.
Situated in a semi-rural location, this well-maintained beautiful Grade II listed house has wonderful far reaching views over neighbouring farmland. The property bears all the hallmarks of its era with inglenook fireplaces, exposed beams and quarry tiled floors that seamlessly blend with recent contemporary updates and additions including a refitted kitchen/dining room with vaulted ceiling and bi-fold doors out onto the garden. There are two further reception rooms and a sizable reception hall with bespoke fitted storage cupboards. The sash windows have recently been fully reconditioned. A notable feature of the property is the master bedroom suite with dressing area and en-suite shower room. There are three further bedrooms and a bathroom on the first floor. The gardens wrap around the property with the majority on the southern, eastern and western sides of the property. The gardens are predominantly laid to lawn and bordered by mature hedging. The southern boundary of the garden borders neighbouring farmland and provides glorious views beyond. A sizable shingle driveway provides parking for several cars. There is also planning permission to erect a detached double garage with room above (planning ref DM/19/0050).
