Duncton House is a very fine period village property, listed Grade II, with charming and adaptable accommodation. Period features include exposed timbers and deep fireplaces; the drawing room and the sunny kitchen/breakfast room are particularly attractive, while the conservatory leads off the kitchen and serves as a useful family room.
Upstairs are five well-proportioned bedrooms with views out to the Downs. Outside the gardens include a formal lawned area and a sun terrace overlooking the fishpond. A path descends to an area of fruit trees and a small stream at the foot of the slope.
