Weald View is a rare gem occupying an enviable edge of South Downs elevated position within the National Park overlooking the old market town of Steyning and with commanding views beyond the town for many miles over the Sussex Weald and across the Eastern range of the Downs. The handsome flint and brick faced and tiled bungalow built within the last 34 years occupies an excellent semi-rural location on the Southern edge of Steyning approached from the Bostal Road within a half a mile of the centre of town. The bungalow is surrounded by its own delightful, landscaped garden and grounds including a paved sun terrace, part enclosed by brick and flint walling with cascading water feature and thence giving way to the sloping pasture fields to the South and North sides with woodland edges to part. Approached by a long private entrance drive (initial short section being via a right of way shared with neighbouring fields) and passing the property's sloping pasture land to each side and then terminating at the side of the bungalow and a timber framed open-fronted store/car port.

The bungalow offers spacious accommodation with entrance porch into double aspect and semi open plan living/dining room including fireplace with wood burning stove, wood laminate flooring and then leading to the kitchen and conservatory with tiled floor and doors out to the garden. The kitchen includes a range of wood fitted units, sink, points for cooker, dishwasher and washing machine. Door to utility room with sink, fitted units, door to outside and door to cloakroom with w.c. and basin. There are three bedrooms, a family bathroom and ensuite shower room to the good size and double aspect main bedroom which also includes fitted wardrobes and wood laminate flooring. The primary feature of the property is the fantastic position with stunning views and with adjacent sloping permanent pasture land to either side of the bungalow and garden and being divided into four fields, which when combined with the attractive garden and terrace areas, provide a tranquil and peaceful setting and a perfect place for mixed livestock grazing and potential smallholding interests.
