An attractive town house with substantial exposed timbering suggesting ancient origins and now re-fronted with attractive tile-hanging to the first floor above flint walls with brick quoins; the whole under a tiled roof. This is a comfortable and stylish home with a secure landscaped garden to the rear. Unusual characteristics of the cottage are the sensible ceiling heights and selection of windows, which provide a light and welcoming atmosphere and charming glimpses of the neighbouring architecture. There is gas-fired central heating to radiators. No ongoing chain.
Church Street is in the very centre of Steyning, close to shops and Post Office, the Steyning Centre, library, parish church and a whole range of other local amenities. The road contains some of the most attractive small-scale domestic architecture in the county and the house is close to the former grammar school, which is a mid-15th Century building. It is all within the Conservation Area.
