Chichester, Horsham & Brighton have the top High Street names and host a variety of theatre, entertainment & cultural events. The property This enlarged semi-detached cottage is one of a group with an interesting history; having been built for returning servicemen as Homes for Heroes in the late 1940s. The position is outstanding, looking straight across the lane to rolling farmland and trees on the slopes of the South Downs - a view that changes daily with the light and weather. The layout is practical and surprisingly roomy, including a bright, cottagey sitting room and at the rear; a large extension providing a really superb 18ft dining/kitchen. This opens into a further reception room which has a luxury shower/cloakroom at the rear. The separate original dining room now provides the option of a study or 4th bedroom. There are three good size bedrooms upstairs and a re-modelled bathroom. Outside, the traditional English garden has sunny sitting areas and a home produce section. A garage/workshop and 3-car parking is at the rear. Heating is oil-fired, with double glazing.
