A substantial family home in a desirable location, situated between Milland and Midhurst
The Plough is an immaculately presented family home, built in 2002/03 by our clients it blends seamlessly the convenient practicalities of a modern house for example in terms of its secure construct on piles, double glazing, underfloor heating throughout, generously proportioned rooms across the ground and first floors, whilst also being in-keeping with the local vernacular being constructed of Fittleworth stone and brick, a part-oak frame, hung-tile elevations and a clay tiled roof. Internally the house benefits from a mix of black slate and oak floors, plentiful reception rooms, all of good size and enjoying access via French doors to the surrounding terrace. The kitchen/breakfast/family room is a practical, open plan space, and the hand-built oak kitchen features a gas AGA and plentiful storage. The drawing room at the far end of the house features a large multifuel burner, exposed beams, and a triple aspect; from here one can access the loggia and Indian sandstone terrace to the rear and on to the garden. Further to the ground floor are the dining room with open fireplace, a study/playroom, utility room, and cloakroom. To the first floor are five bedrooms in all. The principal bedroom suite has a wonderful vaulted ceiling, plentiful windows with a triple aspect, a dressing area and bathroom en suite. In addition there are three further double bedrooms (one with a bathroom en suite), a single bedroom and a spacious family bathroom. The majority of bedrooms all benefit from built-in storage. Gardens and GoundsIn addition to the house, our clients added a substantial car barn featuring three car bays, workshop and bicycle storage. Up an internal flight of stairs is a first storey space, which has been used as a children's hang-out and overflow storage. The surrounding formal grounds are a real highlight to the property. Painstakingly conceived and implemented by our clients, the beautiful borders surrounding the house on three sides are bursting with a stunning variety of plants, trees and flowers. Particular plants of note are a wonderful wisteria at the front of the house, a verbena, plentiful acers, hydrangea and eucalyptus. The formal lawns to the front and rear of the property are perfect for games and entertaining during the summer months; the top lawn features fruit trees including apple and pear and there is a gate through which one can directly access Older Hill. The Plough is entered via a set of electric wooden gates onto a shingle driveway with plentiful parking in addition to the car barn.ViewingsAll viewings are strictly by prior appointment only with Knight Frank the sole selling agent.
