On the first floor there are two bedrooms (a good double and a single) and pretty, recently fitted bathroom with fabulous far-reaching views over the town with the South Downs beyond. On the second floor and approached via a generous staircase is a beautiful, vaulted double, third bedroom with a polished wooden floor, a wealth of exposed timbers and a wall of bespoke bookshelves with useful cupboards below.
A glazed door from the rear lobby on the ground floor gives direct access to the west facing walled garden.
