Guide Price £1,100,000
Hurstpierpoint is a vibrant village with a bustling High Street including a greengrocers, deli, butchers, post office, 4 restaurants, 3 public houses and a church. The larger village of Hassocks with its mainline train station provides regular rail services to London. There are also a range of revered state and private schools locally.
Romantically positioned at the end of a highly sought after tree lined lane, this unique property is perfectly positioned providing a private countryside setting yet within easy reach of the centre of the village. Set within its plot of approximately 0.6 of an acre the timber framed house is humble in nature, yet considered to be of substandard construction and not acceptable to lenders. The reception space comprises a sizable open plan sitting/dining/kitchen area which is wonderfully light and exaggerated further by the vaulted ceiling and doors out onto the raised decked area. The sitting room boasts a wonderful reclaimed parquet floor along with a cast iron wood burning stove. A useful utility room off the kitchen provides space and plumbing for further appliances. As you continue along the hallway there are 2 large bedrooms each serviced by en-suite shower rooms along with a bedroom/office. The family shower room and boot room/utility room reside at the end of the house where a set of stairs lead up to the principal double aspect bedroom. Set within the plot is a sizable studio currently used as an artist workshop for pottery and woodwork. The studio benefits from a mezzanine space and cloakroom. The private gardens are predominantly laid to lawn bordered by mature hedgerow. Two raised decked terraces adjoin the rear of the property and there are various patios providing spaces to enjoy the ever-moving position of the sun throughout the day. A selection of fruit trees are scattered throughout the garden along with various timber garden sheds providing ample external storage. A shingle driveway with parking for several cars is accessed via a timber five bar gate.
