An old Victorian School House is converted into a stunning five bedroom family home

Back to school

Occupying one of the best locations in the picturesque village of Pulborough, this stunning five bedroom family home is not only the last remaining property at the now completed Reside Developments’ site in Lower Street, but is without doubt the best property in the development.

Occupying one half of the lovely old Victorian School House that was formerly Arundale School, this expert conversion offers purchasers a substantial, superbly specified, spacious family home, together with outstanding views over the surrounding countryside and a delightful village lifestyle.

Sensitive to the historical character of The School House and its beautiful surroundings, Reside Developments has retained and restored many of the building’s original features. Careful thought has been given to the choice of kitchen and bathroom fittings, doors, ironmongery and floor coverings – including a striking Victorian-style striped stair and landing carpet, to ensure the new and old merge skilfully to create a character property with all the contemporary comforts of 21st century living and a very high level of ‘green’ features.

The spacious accommodation provides great versatility and comprises a large designer kitchen/dining room with double doors opening onto a private deck overlooking the rear landscaped garden and a sitting room with bay window on the ground floor. The first floor offers master and guest bedrooms, both with en-suite facilities, and a third bedroom or possible study depending on requirements. Two further bedrooms and a family bathroom occupy the second floor, with the large bedroom at the back affording the option of a further sitting/family room to take full advantage of the panoramic views over the Pulborough Brooks.

In addition, this property has two amazing bonus features: a large cellar that would provide a perfect wine cellar or storage area and a separate building, The East Dairy, which could be a home office or work room, a dedicated hobbies room or a teenager’s games room.

This exclusive new home ticks all the boxes for a perfect family lifestyle. Beautifully designed to merge perfectly with its village environment, the property has direct street access via a gated path and two private parking spaces which are off-road and approached through an arched entrance into a private courtyard. The development is within just a few minutes walk of the village shops and local amenities, an energetic walk of the local primary school and within easy reach of Pulborough Station, which provides
a direct service to London Victoria.

This highly individual property is priced at £550,000 and Reside Developments is currently offering to pay the Stamp Duty. Interested purchasers and those requiring further information are invited to contact the developer’s selling agents, Cubitt and West on 01798 875151.
