Bury Lodge is a handsome Grade II listed Regency country house built in the early 1800's, originally being a hunting lodge belonging to the Duke of Albemarle. Built in 1800, the original house was demolished and re-built in its current location and completed in 1808. It was requisitioned by the Royal Artillery during the Second World War and it was from here that King George VI inspected the troops prior to D-Day. Gothic by design, faced with ornate flint walls and a slate roof with wraparound veranda supported by round flint columns. Situated in the middle of its own mature parkland of about 50 acres and approached on a rising driveway, there are far reaching rural views. The parkland provides a private and picturesque setting, nestled in he southern corner of the South Downs National Park.

The current owners have completed a substantial renovation of the fabric of the main house which includes a complete roof and window overhaul throughout, a restored wrap around veranda, well house and outbuildings.
The floor plans in this brochure are the proposed layout for which the current owners have listed building permission. There are a wealth of period features that have been maintained and repaired.

Of particular note is the main entrance porch which is flanked by octagonal buttresses containing a pointed archway with two doorways, set at an angle to each other. The main reception hall has a full height vaulted ceiling and a minstrel's gallery. From the hallway you are lead through to the main drawing room and dining room, with the former having a curved wall. Both rooms have parquet flooring, open fireplaces, doors onto the veranda and views across the parkland. Beyond the dining room is the proposed breakfast room and then the kitchen, which will be light and spacious. On the first floor the principal bedroom will have an extensive dressing room space and a large en suite bathroom. There will be six further bedroom suites, an additional two bedrooms and a family bathroom. In the west facing curved room with bay window the plan is to use that as a study, as the views are impressive over the parkland and beyond. Also included there will be a useful large laundry room.

There are two further attic rooms on the second floor.

Across the drive from the house is the Coach House, which is a superb four bedroom cottage and has been fully renovated encompassing a modern fully fitted kitchen, sitting room, three double bedrooms one of which is en suite, a single bedroom and two further bathrooms.


The property is accessed from a single-track lane, with the gravel driveway sweeping through the parkland up to the house. There are formal lawns surrounding the house, which on the southern elevation are accessed from the veranda and many of the main reception rooms in the house. Steps from the southern lawn lead up to a further raised lawn area which wraps around the back of the house and down to the Coach House. Outbuildings include a former brick and flint store which is used for general storage, a new oil tank and future boiler room and a log store. There are also three garages and a garden store. There is an attractive former well house which has been substantially overhauled and still retains the original workings.
