Description

Set in the heart of the South Downs National Park, Warren House comprises a good size home plus two separate fields set off the South Downs Way and being rurally situated, but in a non-isolated position with the house forming part of a cluster of houses and buildings near the top of the Downs at Truleigh Hill.

The house enjoys sensational views in particular to the South-East towards Brighton in the distance and across a wide expanse of the rolling Downs and out to sea including to the Rampion wind farm in the far distance. The detached home forms a conversion and extension of a range of former farm buildings with part brick and flint and part rendered elevations with double glazed windows and offering adaptable accommodation across two floors.

The highlight is the family kitchen/living room being triple aspect and enjoying the statement views to the East as well as a range of fitted kitchen units to one side. From the entrance hall with fully tiled floors to much of the ground floor there is a useful utility room with mains gas fired boiler, range of further fitted units and sink.

From the hall there is a cloakroom, South facing study with fitted cupboards and a garden/sitting room which equally could be a ground floor bedroom with cupboard and basin to one corner and French doors to the garden. The inner reception hall with staircase to the first floor provides further entertaining or recreation space and thence leading to the good size South facing living room with feature woodburning stove and wood block floor. To the first floor from the South facing landing is a principal bedroom with walk-in cupboard and ensuite shower room with double bedroom two to the other end of the house and two single bedrooms at the rear as well as a family bathroom.

Outside, the driveway offers parking and turning for several vehicles and is adjoined by an attached outbuilding forming garage/workshop space, overall approximately 1,684 sqft with space for a campervan and historically used for internal stabling plus with plans previously passed (now lapsed) for conversion to ancillary accommodation. The garden lies to the South and East side of the house with wonderful viewpoints and is primarily laid to lawn and with occasional planting to the edges.

Located within walking distance or a short drive are the two separate pasture fields, the first being to the South off a bridleway and farm track and extending to approximately 2.44 acres, whilst the slightly further away field is to the North-West adjacent to the Youth Hostel field and with access from the main track which also forms the South Downs Way. This North-Western field extends to approximately 2.56 acres. In total the property including the household plot extends overall to 5.35 acres.
