DESCRIPTION
William H Brown is proud to present this lovely Georgian country house, set well back behind wrought iron gates, almost hidden from the road at the end of a curved high hedge and tree lined driveway. The house stands in around 1.3 acres (STS), with lovely features, such as an original part walled garden, lawn tennis court, topiaries and several impressive mature trees with preservation orders (none too close to the house).

This property is surprisingly not Listed and has evolved over the years with many historic extensions/alterations. The gross floor area is around 520sqm (5600sqft), but please verify this if it is of importance. With large Georgian windows the house has a spacious light and airy feel. Significant wrap around sandstone and limestone flag patio.

History: In the 13th Century the quite remarkable St Mary's Church with its detached bell tower was constructed by the Lewes Priory. The area of the village where the property stands was known as the West Walton Lewes until recently.

The property was built in C1785 as a rectory for the church. A second rectory in another part of the village was later created in C1820 for a second minister.
