Seller Insight

It was the stunning feature conservatory which first made us fall in love with the property,” say the current owners of this beautifully presented five bedroom detached family house, “as well as the generous master bedroom with walk in wardrobe and en suite bathroom for a touch of everyday luxury.”

“This is a truly modern home in a traditional village setting,” the owners continue, “with the heated swimming pool which we built in the lovely landscaped gardens making it a real standout party property. We have had so many wonderful barbecues by the pool, relaxing in the sun and enjoying flavoursome food with family and friends. The garden itself is extremely beautiful and easy to maintain, with plenty of room for grandchildren to run around! We have had many hours of fun playing games on the lawn with the whole family.”

Situated in a cul-de-sac on the edge of the semi-rural village of Small Dole, the location of the property also has much to offer, being within walking distance of the local shops and amenities. “The local pub is fantastic,” say the owners, “serving good portions of delicious homecooked food at a reasonable price. The larger village of Henfield is just up the road for a further choice of places to eat and a range of shops.” In the surrounding area are many miles of countryside walks within the South Downs, with the market town of Steyning around 6 miles to the south of the village. Schooling is available at Steyning Grammar, The Towers School for Girls, and St Peter’s CEP School, Henfield, with Upper Beeding Primary School also nearby. Shoreham train station is around 6 miles away for regular railway services to London, Brighton and the south coast.

“I love my luxurious bedroom with its en suite bathroom and wonderful walk in wardrobe. It makes getting up and dressed in the mornings a real pleasure.”

“We have a number of sheds in the garden, which have been amazing for storage as our family has grown.”

“We shall miss this house greatly, having made many happy memories here.”

“The stunning conservatory is larger than most, so is ideal for entertaining our huge family! We often put 3 long tables in a row at Christmas time to seat 20 people for dinner. The heaters in the room are very efficient so it is very warm even in the middle of winter.”
