Horton Farmhouse is a distinguished Grade II Listed detached residence, showcasing charming traditional architecture with a blend of flint and brick on the principal elevation, complemented by a striking mansard clay tiled roof. The property dates back to the 17th century or earlier, with a later addition from the 19th century. Having been in the same family for over four decades, this home presents an excellent opportunity for prospective buyers to modernize and refurbish according to their tastes and needs.
The interior features spacious living areas spread across three levels, including a cellar. The ground floor consists of two generous south-facing reception rooms, one equipped with a wood-burning stove and French doors opening onto the garden. A beamed dining room with an inglenook fireplace adds character, while the kitchen/breakfast room, also beamed, offers fitted units and direct access to the garden through a rear hall.
On the first floor, you’ll find two sizable bedrooms in the 19th-century section, along with two additional bedrooms in the older part of the house that boast exposed beams. A family bathroom and separate shower room provide convenient facilities. The top floor accommodates two more bedrooms which could serve as study spaces or playrooms; both enjoy stunning views towards the South Downs.
The exterior features include a private driveway leading to carports and stores that require renovation or potential replacement (subject to necessary permissions). The south-facing garden is lush with lawn and various mature plants bordered by hedges and trees.
This property not only holds historical significance but also significant potential for refurbishment, making it an appealing investment opportunity.
