Breathtaking views and a glorious rural position: A substantial barn conversion with games room and paddocks, situated in a popular village at the foot of South Downs
Description
Nestled at the foot of the South Downs, and lying within the National Park boundary, The Granary is a handsome L shaped barn conversion, believed to date from the C18th, with classic downland flint and brick elevations set beneath a tiled roof. It offers enormous potential as a characterful family home, with the accommodation being arranged predominantly across the ground floor, and extending to about 2,130 sq ft, excluding the garaging and outbuildings. The house sits at the head of its grounds and commands spectacular views towards the South Downs and across its own extensive land.
The front door opens into a vaulted entrance hall, where French doors frame the delightful outlook over the rear garden and paddock. From here, the space flows into the impressive sitting room, also vaulted and triple aspect, providing a generous yet welcoming reception area. It is a wonderful setting for entertaining, while the woodburning stove in one corner lends an inviting, cosy atmosphere.
Across the hall lies the large open plan kitchen and dining room, with its French doors opening onto the south facing courtyard garden, creating a perfect place to sit and admire the backdrop of the Downs. The kitchen is well equipped with bespoke solid wood cabinetry beneath granite worktops, centred around a substantial island. Appliances include an electric range cooker, a microwave, a dishwasher, two fridges and a freezer.
Beyond the sitting room on the ground floor are two good sized bedrooms and a bathroom, with a dual outlet shower cubicle and bath; there is a cloakroom lying off the entrance hall.
The principal bedroom suite occupies the first floor, and comprises a vaulted bedroom with eaves cupboards and en suite shower room.
The Granary also benefits from a further spacious reception room, positioned across the loggia which links the barn to its modern outbuilding. Its versatility makes it ideal as a gym, home office, play/games or cinema room, and, together with the loggia, it presents excellent potential for conversion to an annexe or additional reception space, subject to the necessary consents.
Outside
The Granary is set well back from the road and is approached via a shared driveway leading to a private drive in front of the garaging and the courtyard garden. The garaging provides two bays and has internal access to a tool and garden machinery store.
The gardens and grounds lie mainly to the rear and are landscaped with an open, park like feel. Close to the house is an enclosed area of garden with a terrace and lawn, offering space for outdoor dining. There is an open garden store providing shelter and a secure garden machinery store.
The grounds slope gently away to the north east and were originally designed in harmony with the natural contours of the land. They include two ponds and a boardwalk that could be reinstated if desired. A circular hedge encloses a sheltered area ideal for barbecues and camping, and a picturesque stream runs along the north eastern boundary.
Agent’s Notes:
1. The title includes a shared driveway which is also used by the two neighbouring properties.
2. The ground floor wardrobes may be available by negotiation.
Location
Situated in the scenic South Downs National Park, on the western outskirts of Fulking, an exceptionally pretty downland village nestled at the foot of the South Downs. Fulking has a renowned public house, the Shepherd and Dog, and the neighbouring village of Poynings has a garden centre with cafe and farm shop.
For local amenities, the larger villages of Hurstpierpoint (five miles), Henfield (5.7 miles) and Steyning (5.6 miles) have an assortment of local independent shops together with public houses, restaurants and schools. Comprehensive amenities are at the seaside City of Brighton and Hove, which lies beyond the Downs to the south.

Racing is available at Plumpton, Lingfield and Goodwood, with show jumping at Hickstead. There are miles of footpaths and bridleways across the surrounding countryside and the South Downs Way runs along the hilltops which can be seen from the property.
The area is ideal for food and drink enthusiasts: There are many renowned gastro pubs and Michelin accredited restaurants locally, and the region is at the heart of England’s emerging wine scene. Spa and country house hotels include Wickwoods, South Lodge, Ockenden Manor, and Alexander House.
Sussex also offers a vibrant cultural scene, with world-class opera at Glyndebourne, and the annual Brighton Festival presenting a huge programme of theatre, dance, classical music and literary events.
Transport: Fulking is well-positioned for local, national and international connections. There are regular rail services from Hassocks (6.5 miles) to Brighton, and London Bridge/Victoria, journey time from 48 minutes.
