New house designed in the classical style with a cruciform plan pivoting on 2-storey circular galleries and staircase. Pavilions on either side provide vaulted kitchen and barrel-vaulted drawing room with venetian windows to capture the Sussex landscape. To preserve the classical balance and ordered facades of the principal front and rear elevations, french windows are avoided. Access to the garden is via 3 doors from the halls. The first floor is celebrated with a parapet that conceals the second floor service windows in the tradition of this style. Master suite with day shower-room and secret stair to second floor rooflit bathroom 'under the stars' and dressing room. Water garden loggia leads to indoor swimming pool complex, part of a range of outbuildings and garages arranged around a courtyard with 'coaching arch' entrance. For our keen gardening client, there is a walled kitchen garden with potting sheds and greenhouses.
