5 bed detached house for sale

Melrose Place, Storrington RH20

***Price Range £950,000 - £995,000***

Standing in secluded, mature gardens of almost a third of an acre, this Scandinavian designed property offers flexible, family friendly accommodation on the edge of the village, backing onto paddocks and with wonderful country walks almost from the front door.

Built in 1981 and fastidiously maintained since, the environmental credentials of this stunning detached house include triple glazing and two air source heat pumps. Designed to be warm and cosy in the winter and cool in the summer, the property features air conditioning and a lovely west-facing balcony off the lounge.

The "upside down" layout works really well, with a large, welcoming entrance hallway giving access to five ground floor bedrooms, all of which are doubles, a modern and surprisingly large Jack and Jill ensuite shower, refitted family bathroom and a useful utility room. On the first floor are two very generous reception rooms either side of the wonderful kitchen / family room with high spec integrated appliances. There's also a cloakroom/ wc.

There's a lovely calmness to the property, combined with plenty of space for children to play or for adults to relax with family and friends. Outside, the double garage features a room above, accessed via an external staircase and this would make a great home office, games room or teen den.

Less than two miles from Storrington's bustling village centre, all local amenities are within easy reach. A number of primary schools are nearby, with older children being in catchment for Steyning Grammar
