A fine example of a Georgian farmhouse in grounds of circa 2 acres occupying the perfect rural position on the very edge of town within walking distance of a local pub along with garaging for 6-7 cars and a 1-bedroom chauffeur’s flat all presented for sale in excellent order throughout.

Lunces Common is a small piece of open ground and woodland just to the south of Fox Hill on the western side of the Ditchling Road as you head south out of the town, where just a handful of neighbouring cottages and houses have a small hamlet-feel about it. There are two footpaths close by providing some quite wonderful walks linking with the old village of Wivelsfield with its ancient church.

The property is Grade 2 listed and a few years ago was extended in an ultra-modern style to provide a glazed link to the older house to provide a fabulous triple aspect living room on the ground floor and a new master bedroom with high vaulted ceiling and en-suite bathroom to the first floor.

The accommodation has a wealth of character features yet has been sympathetically modernised and refurbished in recent years to a very high specification seldom found with homes of its age and is literally ready to move into. The security system including the entrance gate can be managed from anywhere in the world via mobile phone or the internet.

OUTSIDE: Approached through electric iron gates, the driveway leads into a large parking area where there is a triple garage with a 1-bedroom chauffeur’s flat above, ideal for family or to be rented out separately.

Additionally, a large timber framed garage provides for further vehicles which has an internal staircase leading up to a very useful attic room currently used as a gymnasium but also lends potential for alternate use STPP.

A stunning summer house by Crown Pavilions, to their premium Hampton design, sits centrally within the garden complete with heaters and a refrigerator.

The grounds extend to circa 2-acres and are arranged as formal gardens with partly enclosed iron estate fencing with numerous mature hedges and trees providing an excellent degree of privacy.
