1 The Street, South Harting, GU31

From the moment the Sloe Blue front door of Belmont is opened you feel a sense of happiness, an instant urge to relax and make yourself at home. The beautiful symmetrical façade and stone frontage make this one of the stand out properties on The Street in the very heart of this hugely desirable south downs village. There is the local pub, where the proprietors know you by name, La Follia café and Lamb & Newt interiors shop, a destination for meeting friends or neighbours for a coffee and the well stocked Harting Stores for the Sunday papers and pint of Goodwood Milk, as well as, an abundance of rambling footpaths to be explored across the South Downs and neighboring villages.

Open the front door and the confident colour scheme and attention to detail creates a feeling of space and a warm and light atmosphere. The bright dual aspect sitting room is flooded with light and has a comfortable formal feel with woodburning stove, for cosy autumn nights in with a glass of wine and a movie. A hop across the hallway is the dining room or what is currently used as a Studio, a room that can only be described as a ray of sunshine and flexibility to be used as a second reception room for older children, work from home space or playroom.

Heading towards the rear of the property is what can only be described as the heart and soul of this outstanding home, the exquisite kitchen was designed and built by a local craftsman, offering floor to ceiling cabinetry, including a double door larder cupboard with electric for hiding the Nespresso machine and beautiful vintage island for entertaining. The open plan layout, plethora of windows and high ceilings create a feeling of space and the French doors frame the glorious green outlook and effortlessly lead onto the patio area for those balmy summer nights or autumnal Sunday mornings. Belmont is deceptively spacious offering everything needed for comfortable living, including a downstairs cloakroom and fully fitted separate utility room for muddy boots and dogs.

The pops of colour that make you smile do not stop downstairs, head up to the first floor and you are greeted with 3 bright double bedrooms. The master bedroom is dual aspect allowing natural light to flood in creating a calm and comfortable space, with a unique ensuite shower room boasting double washbasins and green canopy views. The two further double bedrooms are perfectly proportioned with pretty views across the village rooftops or gardens behind and built in wardrobes. The high standard of design and interior styling continues in the bathroom and shower room with walk in showers, free standing bath, bespoke his and hers sinks and accent tiles, make these spaces calm and comfortable, perfect for soaking away the stresses and strains of the day.

Outside
There is so much to shout about with Belmont but the piece de resistance has to be the picturesque and whimsical setting, the glorious garden is a sanctuary, with space to entertain and nurture or simply, sit, pause and be present. The detached garage offers space for storage or a classic car and there is ample parking just outside.
