Description:

This important Grade II listed Sussex house has an interesting history with various castles and houses having stood on the site since the 13th century.
The Henderson family transformed the neglected house and garden in the late 19th century into what is seen today.

Still privately owned, the current proprietors have also made their mark, with extensive renovation and redecorating. Arranged over three floors, the house exudes Edwardian elegance and grace with refined formal south-facing reception rooms on the ground floor and 15 bedrooms on the upper floors. The house has been used occasionally for weddings, open days for the local community and also as a residential wellness centre at weekends, and would lend itself very well to a boutique hotel, retreat or similar, subject to the necessary planning permissions.

The West Wing remains an exciting project for the next owner, and lends itself perfectly to varying configurations.

The gardens and grounds at Sedgwick Park House are simply stunning and were the brainchild of the mistress of the house, Mrs Emma Henderson, who enlisted the help of Harold Peto, during the family's tenure. Parkland, meadows, with rare species of wild flower, and woodland surround the house, extending to approximately 56.3 acres. The formal gardens are worthy of special mention and include a south terrace, formal and informal lawns and a spectacular Italian-inspired garden featuring 20 interlinking ponds, an impressive ship themed water garden known a the White Sea. Within the grounds there is also a swimming pool and a turf labyrinth with superb views over the South Downs
