In recent years the house has been subject to a renovation, including converting the orangery to the rear into a new kitchen area opening to the garden, which has traditional flint walls to complement the age and style of the original house. The interiors have been redecorated to a high standard, featuring an elegant colour palette of neutrals and heritage hues, exquisite cabinetry and natural wood elements as well as premium flooring – a stylish harmony of old and new when combined with the original fireplaces and exposed beams of this Georgian house. The accommodation is extremely versatile and offers a great deal of flexibility, with a choice of reception rooms for entertaining, eight bedrooms plus additional private living spaces on the upper floors, and a useful basement area on the lower ground floor for storage.
In the original, double-fronted part of the house, two generous reception rooms overlook the driveway and there is a large sitting room to the side with a large bay window looking onto the garden. There is a formal dining room towards the rear, a utility room and a ‘lobby’ area where there is a separate staircase up to the principal bedroom. The kitchen/dining/family room is located at the back of the house; it’s fitted with stylish Magnet units, Smeg appliances and a sliding glazed doors opening to the garden.
Upstairs, the first floor has four bedrooms (two of which are en suite) plus a family bathroom, while there are a further four bedrooms on the second floor.
Outside
The Manor House is tucked away within a lovely conservation area at the heart of Southwick, which is fantastically central yet surprisingly quiet. To the front, a tree-lined entrance opens to a gravel driveway providing parking for several cars, with a side gate opening to the wonderfully mature and well maintained gardens which are situated on the south side of the house and fully enclosed by a variety of well established trees and shrubs which add to the feeling of seclusion. The garden is mostly lawned, with wide borders and flowerbeds adding interest, and there’s a gravel terrace adjoining the house with space for garden furniture. An outbuilding provides useful storage. There are a number of seating areas nestled around the garden – it’s a real oasis in the heart of the town. To the rear there is a courtyard which contains several outbuildings, including a shed and woodstore, which also leads to the bin store and street beyond.
Situation
Southwick Street has a great location at the heart of Southwick’s Conservation Area, with a wealth of amenities on the doorstep. A number of shops can be found moments away in Southwick Square, which has Southwick Green located at the bottom for recreational use, and there are further amenities on the seafront including a marina. Hove Lawns and Brighton Seafront is a little way along the coast. A number of schools can be found nearby including Eastbrook Primary Academy, Glebe Primary, Shoreham Academy and Sixth Form, with a wider choice of schools in nearby Brighton and Hove. Southwick also benefits from its own station which connects with London Victoria via Brighton in about 70 minutes, making the area ideal for both families and commuters alike. The A27, A23 and Gatwick can be easily accessed by local road communications.
