Little Friston is a remarkable Arts and Crafts property that has undergone extensive renovations over the past decade, transforming it into a modern yet characterful family home. Originally purchased as a project, the house was entirely stripped back to the brick and thoughtfully refitted. Key architectural features from its Edwardian origins have been preserved, such as the exquisite stone entryway, arched window bays, and ornate stained glass details. Modern enhancements like reproduction doors and decorative elements blend seamlessly with these traditional aspects.
The inviting Neptune kitchen stands out as a focal point, featuring granite surfaces and an AGA cooker – ideal for families who enjoy culinary pursuits together. This impressive residence boasts over 5,000 sq ft of versatile living space across three levels, making it suitable for both entertaining and day-to-day family life.
Connected to the main house is a two-bedroom annexe that can function independently; currently operated as a successful holiday let, it presents an attractive opportunity for multi-generational living or income generation.
The property supports comfortable accommodation with three large reception areas on the ground floor, plus three generous double bedrooms (including one en suite) along with additional sleeping quarters on the upper levels. The beautifully landscaped gardens designed by RHS gold medalist Juliet Sargeant enhance outdoor living with minimal upkeep required. Various terraces promote relaxation while offering picturesque views of the surrounding countryside including Friston Forest and beyond.
With local amenities in the quaint village of Friston and renowned natural attractions within easy reach, this property not only offers a stunning home but also represents an excellent investment potential in a desirable area of East Sussex.
