Full description
A hidden gem in the heart of Church Street dating back to 1870 with 3,198 sq ft of accommodation including an annexe and parking. Set in the heart of Church Street is Mant House, originally called Gedding, which dates back to 1870, when it was the home of Mr Parsons a local solicitor who used the garden room (now annexe) as his office. During the war the property was used by the Red Cross to house Belgian refugees. In 1979 it was purchased and turned into Pauline's Tea Rooms, where it served the village for many years.
On entering the property you are welcomed with high ceilings and many original features. The sitting room and dining room both have bow windows and feature fire places, are at the front of the property. To the rear is the kitchen which is fitted with a range of high and low level units, which leads to a Morning Room with gas Aga and built in storage. The ground floor accommodation is completed by a study with range of bespoke fitted units and a cloakroom.
On the first floor the master bedroom has a large dressing area with fitted wardrobes and an en-suite shower room. There are three further double bedrooms with wardrobes and the second bedroom has lovely southern views down Church Street and to the Downs beyond.
The basement provides ample storage and there is a sound proof room perfect for practising a musical instrument.
Outside there is a spacious detached one bedroom annexe with open plan sitting room / kitchen with a range of fitted units, including oven, integrated fridge, freezer, washing machine and dishwasher. The double bedroom has a cupboard and shower room. This would provide an excellent dwelling for a relative or provide an additional income as an Air BnB or similar.
The gardens are south west facing with a lovely pergola and number of pretty aromatic plants in the garden, perfect for sitting and enjoying the summer sun. At the rear there is gated access to an area accessed from Rectory Close, with parking for at least five vehicles.

Why live in Storrington?
This picture-perfect village lies at the foot of the South Downs National Park, halfway along the South Downs Way. Properties here include bungalows, family homes and the famous Wells cottages that were individually designed by the architect Reginald Fairfax Wells in the 1920s to look and feel like 17th century buildings with thatched roofs, small windows and whitewashed exteriors.
Many of the homes in Storrington have wonderful views across rolling countryside and a conservation area just off the bustling high street ensures Storrington will remain as beautiful as it is today for generations to come.Henry Adams LLP is a member of the NAEA.
