Super detached period house, offering versatile and well presented accommodation, set in an idyllic village location. Super views over adjacent vineyard.
Situated in the picturesque hamlet of Madehurst, in the heart of the South Downs National Park, Stable House is a beautifully presented country home enjoying delightful gardens, wonderful rural views and an abundance of character.
Believed to have origins as a former stable building, the house has been thoughtfully converted and extended to create a welcoming family home that combines period charm with practical modern living. Exposed beams, vaulted ceilings, oak joinery and bespoke architectural details sit comfortably alongside bright, well-proportioned accommodation.
The heart of the house is the impressive kitchen/breakfast room, fitted with a traditional AGA and an excellent range of cabinetry, opening naturally into the adjoining garden room where large windows and doors frame views across the terrace and gardens. The adjoining dining room provides an elegant space for entertaining, while the generous sitting room enjoys a central fireplace and a lovely outlook over the grounds. A separate family room offers further flexible reception space.
The bedroom accommodation is equally versatile. The principal bedroom suite enjoys an en suite bathroom and doors opening onto a private balcony overlooking the gardens and surrounding countryside. A neighbouring bedroom is served by a further bathroom, while two ground floor bedrooms each benefit from their own en suite facilities, providing excellent guest or multigenerational accommodation.
A bespoke spiral staircase leads to two additional first-floor rooms, currently arranged as a study and bedroom, creating ideal home-working space, hobbies rooms or further guest accommodation.
Outside, the gardens are a particular feature, with beautifully planted borders, mature trees, wide expanses of lawn and a generous terrace ideal for outdoor dining. The property enjoys a peaceful rural setting with far-reaching views across the surrounding South Downs landscape.
Completing the property is a substantial detached garage with an excellent games/snooker room above, together with a useful range of stores and outbuildings offering excellent storage or potential for a variety of uses, subject to any necessary consents.
