Description
Set in an elevated position up a private driveway, on the edge of the South Downs, Coast & Country by Henry Adams are excited to present ‘Open Country’ an exceptional family home offering panoramic views from every room, a sense of privacy, and effortless access to London via nearby Amberley Station — just one mile away.
Designed to echo the charm of a traditional Sussex barn, the house combines striking architectural features with warm, practical living spaces. A dramatic, double-height reception hall sets the tone on arrival, leading directly into a spacious drawing room with wood-burning stove and French doors to the garden with far reaching rural views beyond.
The heart of the home is the expansive open-plan kitchen, breakfast and dining area — over 30 feet in length and flows beautifully for everyday living and entertaining. There's also another spacious reception room off the kitchen diner currently a snug to the front of the home.
Upstairs, a galleried landing opens onto five well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal suite sits across the landing and enjoys vaulted ceilings, spectacular views, a walk-in wardrobe and a large en suite. Bedroom two also has its own en suite, while three further double bedrooms share a generous family bathroom.
Outside, the house sits in landscaped gardens and grounds of approximately 1.1-acres. A sheltered west-facing terrace sits between the house and double garage, with a heated outdoor swimming pool — a private, sunny space for summer days. The detached garage includes generous storage above which could be converted, subject to the necessary consents, ideal as a home gym, creative workspace or garden room.
With its rare combination of seclusion, space and convenience and every room designed to make the most of its views, Open Country is an impressive modern country home that offers a genuinely special way of life with easy commuting access to London Victoria in about 92 minutes.
