Description
Quell Farm House occupies a truly wonderful location, with outstanding rural views, including of the River Arun and towards the South Downs, and benefits from direct frontage to the river itself, offering a rare opportunity for those who enjoy waterside living and access to the water.

An example of its period origins is the beamed ceiling in the sitting room, the focal point of which is the super fireplace, which houses a wood burner. The head height is good in the principal rooms and there is plenty of light. The newer stonework has been carefully blended in with the existing stone elevations, meaning very little discernible difference from afar.

There is a large terrace next to the kitchen, which overlooks the swimming pool area, enclosed within a walled courtyard, ensuring the utmost privacy and also making it an ideal sun trap. There is a further, wonderful paved terrace, also next to the kitchen, which superb views towards the downs.
