2 bed semi-detached house for sale

High Street, Steyning, West Sussex BN44

Council tax band: D

An attractive Grade II listed period cottage with flint elevations and brick quoins under a Horsham stone roof. Carefully maintained and improved by the present owner, this charming home has exposed timbering, cottage doors and small-pane windows, and the comforts of modern living with a well-planned kitchen, luxury bathroom, oak-effect flooring throughout and gas-fired central heating to radiators. Stepping outside, there is a secluded courtyard arranged for easy maintenance.

Towards the northern end of Steyning's highly picturesque High Street. Shops for day-to-day needs are at hand and many social, sporting and recreational facilities are also within walking distance, including leisure centre with swimming pool, tennis courts and local health centre. That end of the High Street is close to Mouse Lane: A narrow road leading to Wiston House without much through-traffic, but giving access to ancient drove roads which traverse the South Downs National Park. Thus, miles of open country are found virtually on the doorstep. The house is within the town's Conservation Area.

Approximate Distances: The coast at Shoreham-by-Sea (also mainline railway station) is six miles, Worthing ten miles, Brighton 12 miles and Horsham 15 miles. Gatwick Airport is usually within 40 minutes' drive and London is 53 miles.
