Description
Moorcroft is a substantial detached country house set in eight acres of tranquil semi-rural grounds, offering stunning views of the South Downs. The property was built in 1995 to the current owner's design, on the site of a former mansion house, and features a classic Sussex style with a Keymer clay handmade tile roof and part tile hung, part brick elevations. The house has been a comfortable and loved family home, with plenty of reception space, including a formal drawing room, dining room, morning room, and study. The country farmhouse-style kitchen/breakfast room is the hub of day-to-day life, with a range of bespoke cabinets, an oil-fired Aga, and a separate calor-gas hob. The property also features a galleried landing, principal suite with far-reaching views, and four further bedrooms. The grounds are fully enclosed by hedging and stock fencing, with a circular gravelled driveway, detached double garage, and a range of agricultural outbuildings. The property offers excellent scope for further extension, if required, and is situated at the end of a long private lane, with a public footpath linking to miles of walks across the surrounding countryside.
