A fine Grade II listed house, believed to date back to the turn of the 16th century, and retaining many period features including attractive exposed timbers and notable stone and brick fireplaces.
The beautiful farmhouse kitchen/breakfast room features a 4 oven Aga and a comprehensive range of storage units with granite work surfaces and there is a walk in larder. A back door entrance from the garden is nearby and there is a utility and guest cloakroom. The kitchen opens directly to both the dining room and to the comfortable sitting room. Both are double aspect rooms and have log-burning stoves in the fireplaces. In addition, there is a more formal drawing room with another open fireplace, and a south westerly aspect. The main living rooms interconnect to give a great flow to the ground floor, and all look out over the attractive and mature surrounding gardens.
On the first floor there is a wonderful main bedroom with a large dressing room and an ensuite shower room. There are 3 further double bedrooms with built-in wardrobes, and a family bathroom.
In addition, and near to the back door lies a detached outbuilding which is a very useful study/office with separate further utility room, and stores, as well as the boiler room.
Within the grounds there is a self-contained annex cottage. This has a large sitting room with a log-burning stove, a kitchen and shower room on the ground floor; and upstairs there is a double bedroom and a bathroom. To the rear it has its own secluded garden and a shed.
Outside
The property is approached via a gated driveway also leading to the annex and the triple garage. The driveway provides parking for numerous vehicles and there is an electric vehicle charging point.
Other outbuildings close by are stabling with 6 loose boxes and additional garden stores. There are 4 agricultural barns which benefit from separate access from the lane, and are set well away from the main house. These have in the past been let individually for storage and could be further improved and developed, subject to obtaining necessary planning consent.
The gardens and grounds surround the house and are a lovely setting with lawns, established flowering shrub borders, a kitchen garden with soft fruit cage, and a fenced chicken pen.
From the house, the lawn gently descends to a stunning pond which attracts a huge variety of wildlife. Beyond the gardens, the pasture land is surrounded by mature trees and hedging and to the South West there are beautiful rural views towards the Tote Monument.
Situation
Adversane is a rural hamlet with a thriving pub and village hall. It is located between the larger villages of Billingshurst (2.5 miles) and Pulborough (4 miles), provide for most everyday needs including supermarkets and mainline stations to London Victoria. Horsham (10 miles), Guildford (19 miles) and Chichester (20 miles) offer more extensive shopping, leisure, and recreational facilities, and there is a huge choice of excellent schools.
The surrounding area has much to offer with polo at Cowdray Park, horse racing, motorsport at Goodwood, and golf at the West Sussex, Cowdray Park, Goodwood and Pulborough, as well as sailing out of Chichester Harbour, and other centers along the South coast.
Bridleways and public footpaths are right on the doorstep which provide easy access for enthusiasts of riding, cycling, walking and running to explore miles of superb surrounding open countryside.
