An excellent opportunity to acquire this individually appealing barn conversion, set in a small courtyard development of just four homes within the South Downs National Park.

Available with no forward chain, this marvellous home is surrounded by open countryside with numerous walks on the doorstep, yet remains remarkably convenient for water sports enthusiasts, city life, and links to London, with the coast at Emsworth, Goodwood, and Chichester all within 20 minutes from this wonderful location.

Thoughtfully and carefully converted in the 1980s, Old Byre offers a generous four-bedroom, two-bathroom layout extending to 2300 sq. ft., with a wonderfully spacious feel throughout the home enhanced by the impressive vaulted and beamed ceilings.

Steps lead up to the front door, opening into a handy porch area, and continuing into the main living space. The spacious 23’ sitting room features a central focal point fireplace with fitted stove and offers direct access to the enclosed rear courtyard garden and the front paved patio area. The kitchen is open-plan to the dining area, equipped with a range of wall and base units, Aga, and planned appliance space. A rear door opens to the garden, and there is breakfast bar seating for three. From the dining area, a staircase leads up to the first floor, suitable for various uses such as a hobby space, with an adjoining storage room.
