This beautiful and stylishly presented country house is set in a tranquil position close to the South Downs.

The house is believed to date from the early 19th century and includes later additions.

The current owners have comprehensively renovated and updated the house which is now stylishly presented. The kitchen/ breakfast room was recently featured in Essential Kitchen, Bathroom and Bedroom magazine.

With a vaulted ceiling which is part glazed, and bi-folding doors giving access to a sheltered paved sitting area, the kitchen/breakfast room is the centre of the house.

The well-proportioned and double aspect drawing room has an inglenook fireplace inset with a Chesney wood-burning stove and there are double doors giving access to the garden.

The principal bedroom suite is a particular feature of the property which has a spacious bathroom with an Imperial roll top bath, a walk-in shower and Italian ceramic tiled floor with underfloor heating.

From the bathroom double doors lead to a dressing room fitted with a range of oak cupboards.

Other features include extensive use of engineered European oak flooring and Brazilian green slate flooring with underfloor heating in the entrance hall and kitchen/breakfast room.

Little Stream Farm is approached from a minor country lane through a five-bar wooden gate and via a gravel driveway which leads to a wide parking area to the front of the house and an area of decking leading to the front door.

Adjacent to the south side of the house is a wide paved terrace with raised flower beds and a mature cherry tree. Beyond the terrace the garden is mainly laid to lawn interspersed with some mature fruit trees including apple and plum.

To the south side of the garden is a substantial weatherboard barn/studio, with a decked terrace which overlooks the pond, now in need of renovation. To the east side of the garden is a hot tub set on a raised area of decking and a short distance to one side is a fire pit with a circle of log seats. The paddock area is situated to the northeast side of the house and is bordered on the northern boundary by an avenue of mature poplars. The productive vegetable garden has four large raised beds and is enclosed with rabbit proof fencing.

A stream flows along the south and eastern boundary of the garden.

In all there are around 1.4 acres of grounds.
