Currently the former Granary has been converted on the top floor to provide a let-able 2 bedroomed flat. Outbuildings of interest include a Roundel close to the house, and a magnificent 100ft Sussex barn. The grounds in all extend to approximately 14 acres including formal gardens, paddocks and the sheltered court yard with swimming pool.

The rear of the house with its southerly aspect has a broad terrace overlooking the main lawn.On acquiring the property one of the previous vendors re-aligned the main entrance to the north side of the property, the Tudor façade, in order to leave the south side with its Sussex style elevation as the main garden area.The extensive range of old and more modern farm buildings include an Atcost barn, stabling with good sized boxes, barns and attractive Roundel. The buildings can easily be accessed from the top of the main drive via their own metalled drive, thereby enhancing their use as a separate unit from the residence, subject to planning consents.EPC RATING: F (34)
