Situated in a 1930s estate with a private lane, the detached house spans over 3,500 sq ft.

The property has been extended to include a bright open-plan dining and kitchen area which looks out onto the terrace and garden.

The entire back of the house has triple glazed floor-to-ceiling glass, providing a wall of light throughout the day.

A garden room next to the kitchen is the perfect space to curl up with a book and look out on the garden, while there is also a separate play room away from the main living area, which is a homely space with a woodburning stove.

Upstairs there are four bedrooms, including one with a balcony, while the master bedroom on the ground floor has a grand en suite with underfloor heating throughout.

An outbuilding is currently used as a home gym, but as it has heating and electricity it could also make for a games room or study.

The garden includes mature ash and oak trees and an outdoor kitchen, and backs onto Ditchling Cricket Club.
