5 bed detached house for sale

Little Paddocks, Milton Street, Nr Alfriston East Sussex BN26

Affording exceptionally fine downland views - a spaciously proportioned 5 bedroom detached house with glorious gardens and grounds of about 8 acres. The property has been extensively improved over the ears and now benefits from a magnificent refitted Neptune kitchen. Spectacular downland views are afforded and the property secures a high degree of privacy. Properties with acreage in the downland villages rarely come to the market and an early appointment to view is strongly recommended to appreciate the high merit and appeal of this exceptionally fine setting.

Little Paddocks is enviably situated within miles of scenic downland countryside within the exclusive hamlet of Milton Street. The village of Alfriston is close by and offers excellent shopping facilities and fine dining opportunities as well as an ancient parish church. The glorious surrounding downland countryside of the National Park offers outstanding recreational opportunity. The sea is just to the south at Exceat. The principal nearby town of Eastbourne offers a wide range of amenities and private schools. There are rail services from Berwick Station, Polegate and Eastbourne to London Victoria and to Gatwick. World class opera is at nearby Glyndebourne and Channel ferries are from Newhaven.
