The Property
Situated within the heart of the picturesque and highly regarded village of Fittleworth, this beautifully renovated and substantially extended detached home offers an exceptional blend of contemporary styling and practical family living. Having undergone an extensive refurbishment in 2021, the property now provides spacious and versatile accommodation extending to over 2,000 sq ft, all within easy reach of the village amenities and the stunning South Downs countryside.

The property immediately impresses with its attractive oak-clad faade, which combines beautifully with traditional brick elevations to create a distinctive and striking appearance. Internally, the accommodation has been thoughtfully designed to provide flexible living spaces capable of adapting to the changing needs of modern family life.

The entrance hall creates a wonderful first impression, setting the tone for the light and airy accommodation that follows. At the heart of the home lies an impressive open-plan kitchen/breakfast room, providing an excellent space for both everyday family life and entertaining. The kitchen is complemented by a separate utility room, with courtesy door leading to the rear.

The spacious sitting room enjoys a particularly pleasant outlook over the rear garden and centres around a wood-burning stove, creating a cosy focal point during the winter months. Large tri-fold doors flood the room with natural light and seamlessly connect the internal living space with the garden beyond.

Further enhancing the flexibility of the accommodation is a study, which could equally serve as a fifth bedroom, together with an additional reception room currently used as a playroom/snug, offering valuable additional living space for growing families. A ground floor W/C, with walk in shower, completes the ground floor accommodation.

Stairs rise to the first floor, with the principal bedroom suite featuring a dedicated dressing area, fitted wardrobes and a contemporary en-suite shower room. Three further double bedrooms provide comfortable accommodation, all served by a well-appointed family bathroom. A second study offers an ideal home-working environment.

Outside
The property is approached via a generous driveway providing ample off-road parking for several vehicles, with an area of lawn helping to create an attractive frontage.

To the rear, the garden enjoys a high degree of privacy and seclusion, being enclosed by mature hedging and established planting. A paved terrace extends directly from the rear of the property, creating an ideal space for outdoor dining and entertaining, whilst the remainder of the garden is predominantly laid to lawn, providing plenty of space for children to play and keen gardeners to enjoy. The garden forms a wonderful extension of the living accommodation, particularly during the warmer months when the tri-fold doors from the sitting room can be opened to create a seamless connection between inside and out.
