Detached house for sale in High Street, Shoreham TN14

Enjoying a coveted setting in the heart of highly desirable Shoreham is this grand Victorian detached property, which benefits from a wonderful garden and off-street parking.

There are lovely views over the village to the front, and over the expansive rear garden towards Shoreham Memorial Cross on the hill to the rear.

The well-presented accommodation offers fantastic scope for personalisation feeling spacious and bright. On the ground floor, the central hallway leads to a study, sitting room, dining room, kitchen and utility room, plus a cloakroom with WC and a useful cellar for storage on the lower level. Upstairs there are three good-size double bedrooms, a family bathroom and a further separate WC.

The garden also benefits from a wood store, workshop with power and light, and a storage shed.
