Family home on three floors Marringdean House, an excellent family home with accommodation laid out on three floors with the principal rooms facing south, is for sale with a guide price of ÂŁ1.175million. The house stands on the southern edge of the semi-rural area lying south of Billingshurst, set back from a lane and very conveniently located within about a mile of Billingshurst station. The gardens and grounds lie on three sides of the house with an excellent annex/studio facility on the

north side. The property is approached via a gravel drive which meanders through the east garden. The accommodation in all extends to about 2,700 sq ft and comprises entrance hall, cloakroom, double reception room with two separate areas comprising drawing room with open fireplace and a sitting room with a wood burning stove. Both rooms have glazed double doors opening to the south facing terrace. There’s also a garden, study, kitchen and breakfast room, separated by a peninsular unit and pro-

vides ample space for a small dining table. The dining room is a very attractive room which could be incorporated with the breakfast room. The staircase rises to the first floor galleried landing giving access to bedroom 1, a beautiful light room with bay providing views over the adjoining countryside, shower room en-suite, bedroom 2 with a similar south facing bay and a shower room en-suite, family bathroom and bedrooms 3 and 4. Further staircase rises to the second floor landing giving access to

bedroom 5 and bedroom 6 which has been partitioned into two very useable rooms. Outside the annex building lies adjoining the drive and was converted from former stables to accommodate a family member but is now used as a studio. The conversion has been undertaken to a very high standard and comprises principal room with oak flooring throughout, full height south facing windows and incorporating a small kitchenette. There is also a separate bathroom. The adjoining garage was also

formed from part of the former stable buildings and adjoins the studio. The gardens provide a very attractive feature with large areas of lawn bordered by shrubs and ornamental trees and a stone paved terrace and pergola. Beyond this is an area of orchard with a variety of apple trees and a further section of informal grass bordered by a wooded area.
