These particulars are intended only as a guide and must not be relied upon as statements of fact. Your attention is drawn to the Important Notice on the last page of the text. The Property Blackfriars dates back, we believe, to the mid 1600’s making it one of the oldest houses in Rusper. Presented as brick with tile hung elevations under a tiled roof, this charming family home has many character features synonymous with its period. The current owner has blended the beautiful original features with a modern finish to create this wonderful family home. It is situated in a discreet position down a country lane leading to its long privately owned drive. As you approach the house you pass its delightful gardens and grounds on either side of the drive including the well‐ stocked orchard. The accommodation of the main house is principally arranged over two floors, with exceptional living accommodation on the ground floor including the beautifully appointed dual aspect kitchen and the wonderful formal drawing room that looks out over the beautiful grounds. The first floor is equally expansive as the ground floor and is home to the superb dual aspect master suite complete with dressing room and large bathroom. There are two further double bedrooms on this level one with shower en‐suite and the large family bathroom with separate shower and bath. To the second floor there are two further bedrooms which have wonderful light via the twin dormers and Velux windows which look out to the nights sky. The detached annexe known as Blackfriars Cottage is of a similar age, we believe, to the main house and is also in superb decorative order. It boasts a beautiful sitting room, 3 double bedrooms, three bathrooms and a wonderful studio.
