A Secluded Haven with Panoramic Views in the Heart of the South Downs.

Nestled on the tranquil and highly sought-after Church Lane in the picturesque village of Kingston, Dormers presents an exceptional opportunity to acquire a spacious and beautifully appointed family home.

This charming residence, understood to have been constructed in the 1950s and thoughtfully modernised, offers an idyllic lifestyle with stunning views across the village and the breathtaking Sussex countryside, extending to the South Downs National Park.

A Welcoming Home Designed for Modern Living
Step inside Dormers and discover a home that effortlessly blends character with contemporary comforts.

The entrance, through a full-length glazed door, leads into a welcoming reception hallway, featuring solid oak flooring, setting the tone for the quality within.

The property boasts generous living spaces, including a stunning triple-aspect living room, bathed in natural light and offering incredible vistas across the neighbouring farmland. Imagine cosy evenings by a feature fireplace or opening French doors to seamlessly connect with the rear garden on warm summer days.

A second reception room provides a versatile space, perfect as a TV room or study, again benefiting from a delightful double aspect with large picture windows framing the beautiful Downs.

The heart of the home is undoubtedly the superb kitchen/breakfast room. With bespoke, hand-painted units, solid wood work surfaces, and integrated Neff appliances (including an eye-level oven, combi oven, plate warmer, and 5-ring gas hob), it's a chef's dream.

The ample space could accommodate a freestanding island or a dining table, making it ideal for family meals and entertaining. A separate utility room with additional storage and a downstairs cloakroom add to the practical appeal.

Comfortable and Private Retreats
Ascending the staircase, which gracefully divides at the top, you'll discover four well-proportioned bedrooms. The master bedroom is a true sanctuary, featuring a double aspect that captures delightful views, extensive fitted wardrobes, and a convenient walk-in dressing area. Bedroom two, also generously sized, enjoys a double aspect with views over the garden and some clever eaves storage.

These two bedrooms share a spacious family bathroom, offering a white suite with a bath and a separate shower cubicle.

On the other side of the staircase, two further bedrooms provide flexible accommodation. Bedroom three overlooks the serene rear garden, while bedroom four, currently utilised as an office, benefits from a double aspect to the front and side, once again showcasing those incredible views. These two bedrooms are served by a modern shower room with a corner shower cubicle.
Gardens and Grounds: An Outdoor Oasis

Dormers is set within an elevated and secluded garden plot, in excess of a quarter of an acre, offering a private and enchanting outdoor experience. To the front, a tiered, well-established garden with a meandering brick pathway leads up to a large decked veranda, perfect for al fresco dining and soaking in the panoramic views. The garden features lush lawns, vibrant flower borders, and even a charming summer house on rollers, allowing it to be rotated to follow the sun.

The rear garden rises away from the house, a beautifully arranged space with a series of grass and stone steps, five well-established raised beds (ideal for vegetables), a Cedar greenhouse, and a good-sized garden shed at the top. Fruit trees, including cherry, apple, pear, plum, and mulberry, add to the charm and provide a bounty of fresh produce. Multiple seating areas are strategically placed to capture the sun at different times of the day, and an old brick wall provides total privacy.

Location, Location, Location!
