Beautiful Two Bedroom Apartment - See Video Tour

This estate was opened by His Majesty King Edward VII in June 1906. This stylish apartment is in the main south building. And has been thoughtfully designed. It offers contemporary comfort with high-quality finishes throughout.

The sleek kitchen has crafted tall cabinetry painted in a Heritage palette which is complemented by elegant stone worktops, upstands and splashbacks. Integrated Siemens appliances includes a double oven; the smaller being a combi oven/microwave, ceramic hob, fridge/freezer and dishwasher. This kitchen is spacious and presently accommodates a 9ft dining table. It offers very pretty views through a tall lead light window; which has a bespoke thermal blind, across the gardens to the historical listed Chapel.

As the apartment is at the end of the westerly block it has three aspects, which very few apartments can boast. Windows overlooking north, west and south. There is a beautiful entrance to the building with what one might call a somewhat beautiful grand staircase shared only by three apartments.

The living and dining areas are bright and welcoming, enhanced by generous ceiling heights, with multi mood lighting, Oak engineered flooring runs throughout, and full-height doors lead out onto a private south-facing terrace balcony with beautiful views over to the South Downs, ideal for al fresco dining or simply relaxing in the sun.

Both bedrooms are well-proportioned and both have secondary glazing which helps create warmer space in the winter. They are finished with soft wool carpets. The Master Bedroom offers westerly garden views and bespoke spacious built in mirrored wardrobes. The second bedroom with the same views as the kitchen over to the chapel, has bespoke electric blinds; enabling you to open and close remotely and bedside wall lights.

The bathroom is luxurious yet understated, with natural Grade A Travertine tiles to the walls and floor, premium sanitaryware by Vitra, Hansgrohe brassware, and a sleek glass-screened shower. With added bathroom cabinet.

Additional features include mains-operated smoke detectors, Sky and Freeview provision, a chrome heated towel rail, and LED downlighters to the bathroom with extractor. Heating is provided via a communal gas-powered central system with radiators throughout.

Residents benefit from secure entry to communal areas and fitted burglar alarms. There are Gertrude Jekyll Gardens within this large estate and so too many measured pathways being restored within the approx. 165 acre Estate setting.
The allocated underground car parking, is within easy reach of this super apartment.

The Estate

Opened by His Majesty King Edward VII in 1906 as a specialist tuberculosis sanatorium and heralded as 'one of the three finest buildings of the time', the estate and buildings were restored and converted in 2015 by City & Country.

The award winning refurbishment pays meticulous attention to detail throughout the site including the corridors with original parquet flooring, teak cabinetry, original tiling and stunning lead light windows. The listed gardens designed and planted by celebrated Edwardian horticulturalist Gertrude Jeykll still feature the medicinal plants and stone pathways she created for the hospital visitors and patients to enjoy.
