Stylishly presented detached contemporary home in an exclusive rural development, in the grounds of an Jacobean-style manor.
About this property
History Completed in 1901, Slaugham Manor was designed in the Jacobean Revival style by Arts & Crafts architect Walter Ernest Tower. Originally built as a private home, it was later converted to a hotel and then spent some 40 years as a training and conference centre for Sussex Police. In 2020, the building was converted into nine individually designed apartments and eight modern houses were built in the grounds.
