Goring Road, Steyning, West Sussex BN44

Council tax band: G

An attractive and individual detached house built in the early part of the 20th Century of traditional construction with painted pebbledash elevations under a tiled roof. The house occupies a generous plot with a secluded rear garden and there are some fine views to the ridge of the Downs. With feature fireplaces, original picture rails and panelled doors, this is a welcoming family home with two good reception rooms and an adjoining spacious terrace overlooking the gardens. There is gas-fired central heating to radiators, and kitchen and bathroom fittings are relatively modern but a buyer will see the opportunity to further modernise to suit their needs. Outside, the gardens are mature with a good degree of seclusion and sufficient space for a home office building or safe space for children. There is no ongoing chain.

Goring Road is a prime residential location on the south-east side of the town. Steyning lies at the foot of the South Downs National Park and its High Street is one of the most attractive in the county, containing many listed buildings from the Middle Ages onwards. There is a wide choice of leisure activities available, including the local sports centre with swimming pool, tennis courts and lovely walking country. Steyning has a good range of shops, Post Office, infant, primary and secondary schools, library and churches and a modern health centre.
