From the lounge area a funky spiral staircase gives you access to a large first floor study with views to the side and rear of the property, doors from the lounge open into the family room, and in turn lead into reception room three/ bedroom five with en suite facilities but which is currently used to great effect as a games room.

There are two further bedrooms, plus a play room, the main family bathroom and a useful utility room.

The grounds of this property are as equally impressive as the living space, the barn is set well back from a country lane and owns the long driveway which serves only one other property however this entrance could easily be divided and gated if a buyer preferred a seperate entrance from the road, a five bar electric gate opens into a central courtyard which is for the most part paved but has an area landscaped with shrubs, inlcuding bamboo which gives some interest, shade and privacy to the main hall, access to the large double garage is also gained from the courtyard.

To the rear of the property is an expanse of lawn, an extensive terrace and a detached timber garden room with large decking area complete with an inviting hot tub, we dont know many people that will not be able to envisage themselves enjoying a cool glass of wine on a sunny afternoon or warm evening here, the garden opens out onto a large landlocked meadow which is owned by the Church commission but is now leased to the current owners at a nominal annual rent, beyond there is views of the beautiful West Sussex countryside and in the distance the South Downs Hills.
