5 Bedroom Detached For Sale

Property description

The "Glen" was built in the 1920s and is an Edwardian Arts & Crafts Villa. It sits in its own gardens in a large plot in the region of half an acre. Benefiting from total privacy and comparative solitude, it boasts beautiful views over the South Downs.



Before the current sellers it was owned by Cornelia James (the author Peter James's mother) who made gloves by Royal appointment in Havelock Road.



Over the years the current owners have considerably improved the property. They have added a large carport, better roofline, several bathrooms, bi folding doors, easy parking and electric gates.The gardens have been extensively enhanced and planted with much care and love. Externally they have created areas that benefit from the vagaries of our British climate whatever the time of year, so it's perfect for sitting outside all year round.



Inside the house it is spacious and warm with period 1930s radiators, most of which have been reconditioned. There are also two open fire places and the main kitchen has a gas Aga. There are plenty of rooms to live and sleep in with the opportunity to get away from one another!



The "Glen" would certainly suit a family as it is surrounded by great schools both public and state. Preston Park Station is within walking distance making this ideal for anyone looking to commute to London. There is also easy access to both the seaside and countryside if you're feeling in the mood for an adventure.
