The ground floor has wood flooring throughout and the Sitting room has an open fireplace with gas flame fire. The Kitchen with its Beech worktops is fitted with integral appliances. On the first floor both the Master Suite and Bedroom 2 have built in cupboards whilst the second floor Studio/Bedroom 4 has extensive easily accessible eaves storage.

From the Kitchen and Sitting room, French doors open to a small enclosed terrace to the rear of the house providing just enough outside space to enjoy the open air and tranquillity of Burton Park.

Residents have the use of the parkland with its pastures, woodland and lake along with direct access to miles of footpaths and bridleways through glorious West Sussex countryside. This is a rare and protected environment well away from roads and traffic and bordered by conservation woodlands and Sites of Special Scientific Interest which attracts a wealth of wildlife. In addition residents have exclusive use of the beautifully restored Formal Garden.
