A peaceful yet central village bungalow facing south that includes two detached one bedroom annexes, one of which is an historic Napoleonic watch tower
Tucked discreetly just off the picturesque High Street in the sought-after village of Hurstpierpoint, this utterly unique 1990s detached three-bedroom bungalow offers peaceful single-storey living within beautifully walled gardens, all the while enjoying a remarkably central location. With southerly views across the sweeping panorama of the South Downs, the property combines tranquility, convenience and historic charm in equal measure.
Approached through electric gates at the rear or a wrought pedestrian entrance from the High Street, a winding path bordered by box hedging and ornamental trees leads to the side porch. From here, access is provided both into the main residence and conveniently through to the rear gardens and parking area. The setting, once part of the grounds of the village’s grand Mansion House, ensures a sense of seclusion rarely found so close to local shops, cafés and everyday amenities.
The Main Bungalow
The principal home is thoughtfully arranged for comfortable single-storey living and benefits from full double glazing and gas-fired central heating via a modern Worcester boiler.
Generous lounge with feature fireplace and delightful garden outlook
Separate dining area ideal for entertaining
Well-fitted kitchen plus practical utility room
Three double bedrooms, some with built-in wardrobes
Two bathrooms, including an ensuite, each with both bath and separate shower
Excellent storage throughout, including deep hall cupboards
Extensive boarded loft accessed via ladder, providing substantial additional storage
Additional Accommodation & Outbuildings
A particular highlight of the property is its remarkable secondary accommodation, offering exciting possibilities for extended family, letting, staff use, or creative workspace.
The Napoleonic Watch Tower
This striking Grade II listed circular flint-faced tower spans three storeys beneath a crenelated roof with skylight. Historically used as compact one-bedroom accommodation, it currently provides:
Kitchenette and bathroom at ground level
Small sleeping floor above
Studio living space at the top
With mains water and electricity connected, it presents a fascinating restoration opportunity.
Detached One-Bedroom Annexe
Likely early Victorian in origin, this former agricultural outbuilding has served as a modest residential annexe. It benefits from independent gas heating, hot water and electricity, though some modernisation would enhance its comfort and value.
Outside Space & Parking
The mature walled gardens provide privacy and year-round interest, while the southerly aspect ensures excellent natural light and open views.
Electric gated vehicular access
Ample off-street parking
Pair of garages with up-and-over doors — a highly prized feature in the village centre
A Truly Special Opportunity
Properties combining single-level living, central village convenience, historic outbuildings and such spectacular views are exceptionally rare. This distinctive home will particularly appeal to buyers seeking peace, practicality and character — especially those requiring additional accommodation for family, guests or staff.
A one-of-a-kind residence offering charm, flexibility and enormous potential in an enviable setting.
