 The Property Occupying a truly elevated position atop a steep hill, Flat 5, Beedings Castle is a multi‐level wing of a historic 19th century castle with extensive far reaching views to the north and south. Historically the site itself is of archaeological significance with Neanderthal roots.

The property itself has undergone an extensive restoration and refurbishment programme within the last 2 years by a professional designer and is beautifully presented offering lock‐up‐and‐leave capability or as a permanent home. The property is wonderfully light with an extensive array of new double‐glazed windows giving access to the beautiful surrounding views across unspoilt countryside and the local vineyard.

Many period features have been classically restored such as mouldings, cornices, full height mullioned windows, period cast iron radiators to name but a few. Bespoke carpentry has created a most wonderful and opulent dressing room that anyone can appreciate and others will envy.

At the heart of the refurbishment plans was a desire to create a significant period home with all the modern expectations; LED lighting throughout, water softener, 6 underfloor heating areas and reverse osmosis purifying system for the drinking water.

Of particular note is the grand and principal room of the original castle, which has been lovingly restored to create a most unique and glorious, sitting room. The ceiling height is exquisite due to the full height restored and replaced mullioned windows that flood the room with light even on a dull day. From this room you flow effortlessly into the bespoke German kitchen with Corian worktops, all Miele integrated appliances and with dual full height freezer and refrigerator which is once again bathed in light from the impressive mullioned windows that adorn the breakfast area and mezzanine study.

It truly is a beautifully crafted home that requires a viewing to appreciate what is on offer.

Situation Beedings Castle is located in a truly rural setting close to the small hamlet of Nutbourne with Pulborough to the South West and Billingshurst to the north. The area itself is known for its vineyards and outstanding natural beauty complete with a network of footbaths and bridleways giving access to the extensive surrounding countryside, as well as its popular local public house, The Sun Inn, in Nutbourne village itself.

Shopping: Located approximately 4 miles away is the West Sussex town of Pulborough which offers extensive shopping facilities, including two large supermarkets and a mainline railway service to London Victoria and London Bridge as well as the South Coast. To the north Billingshurst offers additional shopping facilities also on the same mainline to London Victoria and London Bridge.

Sport and recreation: Sporting facilities in the area include golf at the West Chiltington Golf Club, the West Sussex and Slinfold Park Golf and Country Club, racing at Goodwood and Fontwell, polo at Cowdray and sailing at Chichester Harbour in Littlehampton.

Schools: There are a range of schools in the area including Millais, Tanbridge and The Forest schools as well as Handcross and Cottesmore schools.

Travel: Communications in the area are excellent with access to the A29 approximately 1 mile away giving good access both north and south to the motorway network beyond. Access to nearby Gatwick by road takes approximately 35 minutes or by rail from Billingshurst station in approximately 40 minutes.

 Garden and grounds The private garden which is a short walk from the property has been designed by Architectural Plants and has been planted in an Italian style to form symmetry with the nearby vineyard that it overlooks. This is the perfect spot to enjoy a bottle of your favourite fizz with your friends or family. The grounds extend in all to about 0.035 of an acre. The property also benefits from a double garage.
