Description
Kings Farthing is a charming period house full of character and charm, and is situated in the centre of the picturesque village of Jevington which lies within the South Downs National Park.
The house has been sympathetically improved by the current owners, providing a well-presented three/four bedroom family home. Externally the house presents attractive brick, flint, tile hung and weather board elevations. There are beautiful exposed timbers, wood and quarry tile floors.
The house provides very generous accommodation of over 2,300 square feet and has a wealth of period features and is full of romance and colour. There is a well-proportioned, double aspect sitting room with painted bressumer beams and a wood burning stove in the original inglenook. There is a dining room and a gorgeous study with open fireplace and extensive builtin bookshelves. The kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of cupboards and drawers and includes a four oven Esse range. Beyond the kitchen is a lovely garden/breakfast room. A cloakroom completes the ground floor accommodation and there is a cellar in the basement.
Upstairs there are three/four double bedrooms, together with a family bathroom, an ensuite bathroom and separate cloakroom. The entire house is full of period features typical of a house of this era.
The gardens and grounds are an absolute delight and are a major feature of the property. There is a large garden studio/office in the grounds, which could be ideal for working from home. There is off road parking for several cars together with a detached brick and tile garage and a wood store just outside the kitchen door. The garden includes numerous well stocked flower beds and various lawns and terraces. From the formal gardens a gate leads through an old flint wall to the property's pasture from which there are lovely views over the surrounding countryside and to the far end of the pasture is a tractor and wood store.
Kings Farthing is in the centre of the picturesque village of Jevington at the foot of the Downs which has the Eight Bells pub and a church. Polegate station is 2.2 miles away with trains to London Victoria via Lewes and Gatwick, and links to Eastbourne, Hastings and Ashford International. The Downland village of Alfriston is circa 7.2 miles away with the larger towns of Eastbourne, Lewes and Brighton also accessible.
