We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
This upside-down, period home has been comprehensively improved and remodelled in recent years to create a wonderfully spacious, coherent layout of light-filled rooms, all making the most of the views of the surrounding woodland and lake beyond.
Highlights include the delightful kitchen, adjacent and semi-open to the reconfigured sitting-dining room with its feature log burner and zoned dining area, with double doors opening onto the charming roof garden which faces the lake.
The top floor room with its various uses and the best of the views is another feature and offers myriad options as either a potential bedroom, further reception or study/studio space.
Downstairs, both double bedrooms are good-size and each has its own superb, contemporary, en-suite bathroom, with the principal bedroom also boasting an ample built-in wardrobe.
The property also includes a useful boot room/utility area with back door out.
Outside As well as the roof terrace, there is also a pretty courtyard garden and parking area beyond, whilst the westerly parking area is ample for 2+ cars and houses a useful wood store.
The courtyards on either side could easily be made into more of a garden area if desired.
Situation The surrounding countryside offers superb leisure facilities with a public footpath right across the lane ideal for dog walking, hiking, trail running or biking for miles around.
The village of Warninglid is roughly 1.5 miles away with the popular Half Moon pub.
Nearby Staplefield village has lovely pubs and cricket ground High street & local stores, cafés, bars and restaurants are to be found in Horsham, Haywards Heath and within the city of Brighton & Hove, less than 30 mins drive.
There is a great range of state and public schooling options locally, including Staplefield Primary School, Handcross Park & Primary, Ardingly College and Hurstpierpoint College, all within 20 minutes.
