Understood to have origins from the early 1900’s, Long Acre has been sympathetically renovated and significantly extended to an exceptionally high standard by the present owners. The house has predominantly white washed elevations to the front and rear, with timber infilling, all under a mainly pitched tiled roof. As part of the recent extension, there is a cedar clad garden room, which is under a copper pitched roof.
Long Acre is stylishly presented and has accommodation arranged over three floors. Internally, the property provides bright, elegant and exceptionally well-appointed accommodation. Features of note include a well-proportioned drawing room with oak flooring, a vaulted ceiling and a wood burning fire with feature floor to ceiling brick chimney. The Smallbone kitchen is the heart of the home and includes polished granite work tops, a double bowl butler sink, a four oven Aga complemented with a ceramic four ring hob and a central feature island including a refrigerated wine store.
The kitchen / breakfast room leads through to the garden room, both of which enjoy underfloor heating, and a travertine tiled floor. The double glazed doors open onto a westerly facing sitting area and the triple aspect gives wonderful views over the property’s garden and grounds and to the countryside beyond.
The well-arranged living accommodation is complemented on the first floor by a principal suite, a guest suite, further family bathroom and three further double bedrooms. Long Acre also benefits from two main staircases to the first floor, one of which is an elegant Victorian styled wrought iron spiral staircase. For further storage a third paddle staircase gives access to a second floor Attic room.


Long Acre lies in a rural situation, about 1.5 miles to the north of the pretty village of Nutbourne, which provides a church and a popular public house. Nutbourne is a small rural village dominated by surrounding farmland and part of the Parish of Pulborough in West Sussex. A significant portion of the village, together with the millpond and its surrounds is a designated conservation area.
Storrington which lies to the north of the South Downs and is about 6 miles to the south east of Long Acre, includes a Waitrose supermarket and a wide variety of other businesses and shops. For the commuter, there is a mainline train service from Pulborough Station (about 3.5 miles) to London Victoria (about 1hr 17 minutes). The historic market town of Horsham lies to the north east (about 12 miles).

From the delightful south facing garden there are wonderful far reaching views over the adjoining farmland. The garden is principally laid to lawn with various herbaceous borders and mature trees. Sussex post and rail fencing defines the border between the formal garden and the adjacent paddock. The garden at Long Acre provides a delightful and peaceful setting for the property and benefits from an outdoor heated swimming pool and a large south facing patio.
