Casa, Aldsworth, Emsworth, West Sussex

Aldsworth House is thought to date back to
before 1785 with later additions, sitting in the
middle of its own land it is approached through
electric gates onto a sweeping driveway. From
the house, there are stunning views across its
beautiful gardens, and farmland to the South
Downs beyond. Aldsworth House has the
advantage of being located only a few miles from
the popular waterfront of Emsworth.
Aldsworth House has wonderful character and
fabulous ceiling heights throughout, giving a
sense of grandeur on entry. The reception rooms
each have their own unique style, all with great
proportions, especially the dining room and
drawing room that both overlook the stunning
spring flower meadow. The kitchen/ breakfast
room is light and bright, with an electric AGA,
and a mezzanine above the entrance, which
is currently used for storage. There are three
further reception rooms and a bedroom/study
towards the back of the house, as well as a
boot room and utility room, with an additional
bedroom above. The cellar and wine cellar are
accessed off the Reception hall, next to the
kitchen.

The sense of space continues on the first and
second floor, with the abundance of large
bedrooms, all fitted with original fireplaces
and many with far reaching views across the
landscaped gardens and paddocks beyond. The
first floor has a striking landing which leads to
the principal bedroom, study and three further
bedrooms, two bathrooms and two cloakrooms.
Four further bedrooms, with two bathrooms,
are found towards the south side of the house,
thought to be the original part of the house,
which are set over two floors.

To the north of Aldsworth house, you will find
the magnificent indoor pool, which is linked to
the main house by the garden room. The pool
house creates a beautiful architectural statement,
similar to an orangery, which encapsulates the
style of the property beautifully, and one’s eye is
drawn to this the moment you drive through the
electric gates.
