INTRODUCTION Having been in the same family since 1934, Hyman Hill are delighted to offer this rare opportunity to purchase a fantastic piece of local history.

Constructed in the 1600's, 41 The Green is an attractive Grade II listed vernacular low rise building, originally thought to be constructed in the pattern of a Hall House once open to the rafters from the ground floor. Well constructed with good quality materials for the period, many architectural features remain in-situ providing a wealth of history and character.

The building has a traditional timber-framed pitched roof clad with clay tiles. The external walls are of solid construction formed of flint,beach pebbles, field flints and brick dressings in lime mortar. Internal partitions are of framed panelling and older timber (oak) framing with infill panels of lath & daub

Internally, the property offers accommodation to include; two principle ground floor reception rooms, kitchen, utility room, WC, two first floor double bedrooms and a shower room. To the second floor there is a large second bedroom with access to either a fourth bedroom or study. Externally, there is a stunning rear garden boasting a favoured sunny westerly aspect with substantial boundary walls of flint.

The property benefits from stunning uninterrupted views directly over Southwick Village Green to the front and is situated on level ground within easy walking distance of Southwick Square with its comprehensive range of corporate and independent shops, bus routes, library, doctors surgery and community centre. Southwick railway station is also within easy walking distance offering coastal routes east and west with links to London.

Reputable primary and secondary schools fall within the catchment, many of which have 'outstanding' Ofsted ratings.
