4 Bedroom Attached For Sale in The Street, Bramber, West Sussex, BN44 3WE

Summary

An impressive and substantial house, built probably in the latter years of the 19th Century, of traditional brick and tile construction with whitened elevations and decorative timber studding, and standing in mature gardens with an overall plot measuring 0.70 of an acre. The house is approached by a long, gated driveway and due to the south-west orientation, room layout and generous grounds, one has to be reminded that Highcroft is attached on the eastern boundary. The nicely proportioned rooms radiate from a spacious staircase hall with feature stained-glass windows to the entrance and first floor landing, and the architectural theme continues with fine joinery, open fireplaces and an exceptional oak-panelled dining room. This is a fine family home with a country house feel; stylish d�cor, a recently fitted kitchen, high quality sanitary ware and the modern practicalities of replacement double glazing to the majority of windows and gas-fired central heating with modern boiler and period-style radiators. Secluded gardens with a lightly wooded section and outbuildings including a three-bay part-open garage block complete the picture.
