Summary

An impressive detached house built around the turn of the 20th Century. The substantial accommodation is arranged over four floors and is immaculately presented throughout, having been sympathetically enhanced to create comfortable modern living space for a family, with great attention to the preservation of the original features. Ceiling heights are generous and floorboards have been exposed, complemented by a neutral colour scheme and a selection of fine original fireplaces.

The spacious reception hall has a secondary staircase to the lower ground floor with a large games room/cinema and access to the secluded rear garden. The principal reception rooms enjoy a south-easterly aspect and double French doors from the sitting room open to a contemporary glazed balcony overlooking the garden and neighbouring lightly wooded grounds. The kitchen/breakfast room is a modern design with granite work surfaces and peninsula work station. The expansive seven-bedroom accommodation is arranged over two floors with luxury bathroom fittings and from these levels there are far-reaching views over adjoining parkland with the ridge of the Downs in the distance. There is an efficient modern gas-fired central heating system with twin boilers serving radiators. The property is of brick construction under a hipped and tiled roof with dormer windows. Early possession is available and viewing is highly recommended.

Location

Goring Road is a prime residential location on the south-west side of the town and it has always been the fashionable road in the town. Close to the southern end of the road, the property is within a short walk of Steyning High Street with shops, banks and Post Office. It is also ideal as a family house as it is within walking distance of schools as well as the various sporting, cultural and other recreational facilities, of which there are almost a hundred in Steyning. The small country town nestles at the foot of the South Downs National Park.
Communications are first class: There is a local by-pass which diverts most through traffic from the town and Worthing and Brighton are eight and 12 miles respectively. Horsham is about 14 miles to the north and Crawley and Gatwick Airport can normally be reached in about 40 minutes. The nearest main line railway station is at Shoreham-by-Sea (five miles).
