Description

This ancient estate, dating back to the 1830s, has been beautifully restored and now serves as a comfortable private family home. The manor house, built from knapped flint and featuring a traditional slate roof, boasts six reception rooms, a modern kitchen, seven bedrooms, and five bathrooms. The estate includes a range of outbuildings, including an entrance lodge, guest cottage, staff flats, and a stable yard with loose boxes and an outdoor manege. The gardens are stunning, with the South Downs providing a breathtaking backdrop. The property is situated at the end of a long private carriage drive, surrounded by the South Downs National Park, and is just a short drive from the historic town of Lewes and the coastal towns of Eastbourne and Brighton. The area is renowned for its excellent schools, and there are plenty of opportunities for outdoor pursuits, including sailing, walking, and horse riding.
