## Description

A beautifully renovated three-bedroom end-of-terrace, flint-fronted character home, perfectly positioned in the heart of Steyning.

This charming property blends period features with thoughtful modern updates, creating a warm and inviting home throughout.

At the front of the house, the first reception room is currently used as a cosy snug, complete with a large window and original shutters that enhance its character. The main lounge also enjoys original shutters and a feature fireplace, with décor chosen to complement the heritage style of the home.

To the rear, a spacious open-plan kitchen and dining area offers excellent cupboard and worktop space, with room for a full-sized dining table. High-spec integrated appliances, including a fridge freezer and dishwasher, provide modern convenience while maintaining a clean, elegant look. Off the hallway, a side door leads directly to the rear garden, and there is a generous storage cupboard ideal for household essentials.

Upstairs are three well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal and second bedrooms both feature fitted wardrobes, making excellent use of space. A recently renovated bathroom completes the first floor, finished to a contemporary standard.

The current owners have undertaken various renovations of the property, including the installation of new windows, ensuring comfort and efficiency while respecting the property’s traditional charm.

The mature, cottage-style rear garden offers a peaceful retreat, with established planting and outbuildings providing additional storage. Side access makes it particularly practical for returning from countryside walks, perfect for those muddy-boot days.

Situated in the very heart of Steyning, the home is moments from the village’s delightful boutiques, cafés, and amenities, while also being positioned at the foot of the South Downs, ideal for scenic walks and outdoor adventures.
