4 AN INTRODUCTION Designed around the countryside views and access to the gardens, this luxury home sits within its own grounds in a quiet cul de sac of characterful buildings. Built in traditional style, inside the house has been refitted to an unusually high specification and now incorporates underfloor heating in the hallway and living room. ID-systems bi folding doors with solid wood spray painted frames are installed in both the kitchen and reception so both rooms enjoy the sunny garden to the full. THE SITTING ROOM Full of sunshine which pours through windows in three walls, the stunning sitting room has clean lines with slim coving around the ceiling and Italian porcelain underfoot. Inside, beautiful design culminates in a Chesney stone fireplace housing a contemporary real flame gas fire whilst the south west wall of German glass doors, shaded by a Silent Gliss Wave curtain system, brings the outside in and opens to a spacious terrace bordered by lavender. THE KITCHEN DINER & UTILITY The meticulous attention to detail continues in the streamlined Poliform kitchen of Italian design which has smooth silestone surfaces. The high spec integrated appliances include a Miele touch induction hob beneath a steel hood, Siemens combi and fan ovens with a warming tray, a full size Neff fridge and the Phillipe Starck lights above the breakfast bar would stay. The dining area looks over the beautiful gardens and you can retract the tall glass doors completely or centrally to bring the outside in. There's a separate utility room tucked away with its own door to the secluded rear garden and a side gate ideal for supermarket deliveries.

8 GOOD TO KNOW All of the designer furniture and fittings were purchased specifically for this second home, so there's a rare opportunity to negotiate to buy items of interest to you. THE ORIEL BEDROOM SUITE To the left of a broad, bright landing with large oriel window, the guest suite spans from front to back of this substantial building. A second deep oriel window and picture windows frame garden views which reach to the Downs to the south and fitted wardrobes are in place for your guests. The en suite shower room has high end fittings including a large walk-in shower and designer taps, there is a shaving point, plenty of storage and a heated rail to ensure your guests feel pampered. THE MASTER SUITE Privately at the right-hand end of the landing, the triple aspect master suite is designed to relax and refresh with generous proportions and restful views which reach over blossoming trees to gently rolling Downland whilst a velux allows you to drift off beneath the stars. There are ample fitted wardrobes - the walk in closet is also lit, and the exceptionally large modern en suite contains a bath with a shower attachment as well as a separate, walk in shower. Unusually private, thanks to the skylight, the skilful design extends even to the twin wash basins which have recessed storage below.

12 THIRD & FOURTH FIRST FLOOR DOUBLE BEDROOMS Ready for your move, both of the two remaining bedrooms are light and airy, peaceful, pristine and perfectly presented with large built-in wardrobes. In an idyllic setting, neither is directly overlooked. The fourth bedroom which has a view of the downs is currently used as a second study. The luxurious family bathroom is bright and spacious. The traditional white suite has a shower above the bath and there is also a large corner Aqualisa shower. A shaving point and heated rail complete the glamorous package and next door is a family sized airing cupboard. THE GARDENS & GARAGE LUXURY BEDROOMS & BATHROOMS South facing and scented, the charming flint walled garden wraps around the house. A brick path from the guest parking and garage leads past lawns and beneath an arbour draped in wisteria, roses and clematis to the paved sun terraces and welcoming oak framed porch. Ideal for entertaining, the garden also has secret nooks and crannies to explore. On a practical note, two sheds are secreted away behind a gate, and the garage, with an upper floor, raises interesting options.

13 LOCATION A quintessential English village, Rodmell was once home to Virginia and Leonard Woolf whose house is now a National Trust property. The Rodmell Horticultural society founded by Leonard Woolf remains very active today. The village has local amenities including a family run pub, and a lively community. The opera house of Glyndbourne and thriving shops of the medieval castle town of Lewes are within easy reach as are bridle paths and walks of the National Park. Sitting above the valley of the River Ouse, you can enjoy the restful pace of village life knowing that the bustling towns of Lewes, Newhaven and Seaford are close by, all offering fashionable shops, restaurants and bars as well as plays and music. The beach is within easy reach and the coastal City of Brighton and Hove is a reasonable commute - about minutes. For those needing to venture further afield, the railway station at Lewes, with a fast and regular service to Gatwick and London, is only 8 minutes away as is the port at Newhaven with its ferry service to Dieppe and access to the coast road.
