An exquisite and characterful home, nestled within a secluded country house estate in the beautiful South Downs National Park.

Originally serving as a support building to the main house, The Granary is an elegant residence with generously proportioned rooms, high ceilings and character features, and includes a useful self contained annexe. The property has its own private garden and uninterrupted views over rolling countryside. The main house is a 19th century mansion, an architectural masterpiece designed by Alfred Waterhouse, the visionary behind the Natural History Museum.

Upon entering, you are welcomed into an entrance hall, with original parquet flooring, a testament to the home s timeless charm. This inviting space provides access to the principal ground floor accommodation. The parquet flooring continues into the spacious and light filled sitting room, where a dual aspect design allows natural light to pour in, enhancing the room s warm and welcoming ambiance. A charming log burner serves as a delightful focal point, perfect for creating a cosy retreat on chilly winter evenings.

At the heart of the home lies a beautifully appointed elegant and classic country style kitchen and dining area. This space is thoughtfully designed, featuring a traditional Aga, a classic Butler s sink, and bespoke wooden cabinetry.

Off the kitchen, there is a self contained annexe. With its own private entrance from the outside into an inner hallway, this area comprises a cosy sitting space, a comfortable bedroom, and a well appointed shower room ideal for guests, extended family, or independent living. The ground floor is further enhanced by a utility room with a sink and access to the rear courtyard, as well as a convenient WC.

On the first floor, you will find four double bedrooms, each with character features. The main bedroom suite is particularly impressive, boasting an array of built in wardrobes and a wonderfully bright atmosphere, thanks to its dual aspect design. Two beautifully designed family bathrooms complete the first floor accommodation.

Outside, the property is approached via a private driveway that leads to a double garage and workshop, complete with electric roller doors. The expansive, well maintained garden is predominantly laid to lawn, interspersed with mature shrubs, flower borders, and a charming pond. A sweeping patio runs along the rear of the house, providing the perfect setting for al fresco dining while soaking in the far reaching views and breathtaking sunsets. A summer house, shed, and log store further complement the outdoor space, offering excellent storage solutions for garden essentials.

A truly unique and distinguished residence, The Granary seamlessly blends historical charm with modern comfort, all within an idyllic countryside setting.
