An attractive and substantial purpose built four-bedroom detached family home, redesigned into a 8-bedroom HMO by the current owners, with traditional construction, occupying a generous and mature plot within a highly desirable rural position on the outskirts of the historic village of Ifield. The property offers considerable scope for comprehensive refurbishment, redevelopment, or further enlargement, subject to the usual planning consents, making it ideal for purchasers seeking a long-term family residence or development opportunity.

The accommodation is well-proportioned throughout and arranged over two floors. On the ground floor, an entrance porch opens into a welcoming entrance hall, which forms the central hub of the home and features a staircase rising to a spacious and light galleried landing. The property benefits from an excellent range of reception rooms (all currently being used as downstairs bedrooms), including a formal living room and separate dining room, both ideal for entertaining, along with a family room providing more informal living space. Further reception areas include a sunroom and conservatory, both enjoying views over the gardens and providing a strong connection to the outdoor space.

The kitchen is fitted with a range of attractive wall and base units, complemented by roll-top work surfaces and a sink unit. Appliances include an integrated double oven and Aga hob, with additional space for a fridge/freezer. Separated from the kitchen is the utility room with plumbing for a washing machines. An outer lobby provides useful secondary access, alongside a ground-floor cloakroom/shower room

To the first floor, the galleried landing enhances the sense of space and natural light and provides access to four generous and well-lit bedrooms, all offering pleasant outlooks over the surrounding gardens or countryside. A family bathroom serves the bedrooms and offers further potential for modernisation.

The property benefits from oil-fired central heating and retains a number of original character features, adding charm and authenticity to this older-style home.

Outside, the property is approached via a large gravel driveway offering ample off-road parking and access to a detached double garage. In addition, there are several useful outbuildings, offering potential for storage, workshops, or alternative uses, subject to any necessary consents.

The rear garden is a particular feature of the property, being predominantly laid to a paved patio area which leads onto a large, expansive lawn. The garden backs directly onto open fields, providing uninterrupted views and a peaceful rural backdrop. To the front, a wooden gate opens onto a pathway leading to the front door, bordered by lawned areas, mature hedging to three sides, and well-established shrub and flower beds, ensuring privacy and an attractive approach.
