Sky House represents a unique opportunity to acquire a fantastic building plot in a prime location, in the much sought after village of West Harting. Enjoying unrivalled views, the site has planning permission for a superbly designed house, with accommodation of around 6,000 Sq ft, arranged over three floors.

The new house will be sited lower than the existing house (which will be demolished), in order to blend in with the landscape, without compromising on the far reaching views. The site sits within the South Downs National Park and great care has been taken to ensure that the design is compatible with the immediate surrounds.

The lower ground floor consists of a large hallway, off which there are four bedrooms, along with three bathrooms, (two of which are en suite). There is also a study, a cinema room and laundry room. In addition, there is a large family room with provision for a fireplace, sharing the chimney stack with formal living room above. A cloakroom and boot room complete the internal rooms. The design benefits from a two vehicle open underground garage with access to large workshop at the rear, through to a plant room.

On the ground floor, there is a spectacular terrace/garden area, benefitting from the wonderful views. There is also a formal sitting room with provision for fireplace, gym, sauna, and changing room with WC. A further WC and cloakroom area is tucked behind the kitchen, which opens on to the dining area, which affords access to the dining terrace. To support the “green” credentials of this outstanding house, there is also a “green roof” abutting the family room and dining terrace, with a raised bed planting area accessed off the terraced garden.

On the first floor is perhaps the “piece de resistance”, as a hugely impressive principal bedroom suite is situated here, incorporating a dressing room, en suite bathroom and bedroom terrace, all of which is accessed off a generous landing. The top floor also has a further “green roof” area and is arguably the best vantage point of the whole house.

The gardens and grounds comprise a long, sweeping driveway off Quebec Lane, various paddocks and a more formal area of garden. There is also a newly planted vineyard and the new house nestles just below a bank of woodland, abutting Collins Lane. Seclusion, privacy, but expansive views across farmland combine to make this a truly special site and property. The planning reference is SDNP/24/03214/FUL.
