The property

Watersfield House is an attractive family residence of traditional Sussex architecture, offering well-proportioned accommodation across the main house and a substantial annexe and garage building. The property provides considerable versatility, with solid timber joinery and thoughtfully arranged living spaces designed to make the most of views across the private grounds.

A striking double-height reception hall with a timber staircase creates an impressive welcome and leads to the principal reception rooms. These include a generous double-aspect drawing room with a fireplace, deep bay window and glazed folding doors opening onto the garden terrace. A formal dining room provides space for entertaining, complemented by a front-facing study with bespoke fitted cabinetry and a separate family room. At the heart of the house, the spacious kitchen and breakfast room features traditional timber cabinetry, a central island with breakfast bar seating and a classic Aga. This opens into a vaulted conservatory overlooking the landscaped gardens. A utility room and cloakroom complete the ground floor.

The first floor is arranged around a galleried landing overlooking the reception hall. The principal bedroom suite enjoys dual-aspect views and includes fitted wardrobes and a spacious en suite bathroom with twin basins, a bath and separate shower. A second double bedroom also has en suite facilities, while three further bedrooms are served by the family bathroom. Above the detached garaging, an annexe includes a 24 ft multi-purpose games room and adjoining shower room, offering potential for guest accommodation, a home office or gym.

In and out driveways with wrought-iron gates open onto a sweeping gravel driveway providing extensive parking and access to the substantial garage building. The mature, secluded grounds are bordered by laurel hedging, established shrubs and specimen trees. A wide paved terrace extends along the rear of the house, providing space for outdoor dining and entertaining, with views across the level lawns to a charming corner gazebo.
