Price Guide £1,300,000 to £1,400,000.Set in the idyllic, leafy conservation enclave of Portslade Village, next to the Parish Hall, Whychcote is a magnificent, elegant mansion home relaxing behind an attractive flint wall and occupying a prime location opposite the village green. Built in 1888 this historic Victorian seven bedroom family home is a timeless treasure offering the privilege of a wealth of history both in its fabric and its past ownership. EPC rating FIn Brief The rich heritage of the building has been beautifully preserved as it has passed down to each successive owner, all of whom have felt a respectful debt to the past and a responsibility to the future in maintaining and creatively developing the home further. Whychcote was originally built as a house for successful local businessman and brewery owner Herbert Mews, whose brother and business partner owned Loxdale House, another of the village's substantial properties. In 1928, well-known theatrical impresario, Andrew Melville, proprietor of the Grand Theatre in Brighton, famous for his villainous roles, bought the property along with the village green, which was essentially his front garden until the road across it was developed. The green is now under a covenant stating that it can never be built upon.The current owners have worked hard over the past 13 years to continue restoring the building to its former glory following a period of semi-neglect. It is now a perfect example of the purest form of Gothic Revival contemporary Victorian architecture typical of the late 1880s. The exterior is characterised by a dramatic mix of gables, bargeboards, chimneys and leaded, diamond-paned windows, whilst the interior presents a profusion of oak, used in the floors, panelling and beams and a wealth of traditional materials. Whilst the building is imposing in its architectural presence and importance, the individuality of its interior, juxtaposing period features and historical detail alongside some perfectly appointed contemporary styling, makes this home aesthetically striking whilst eminently comfortable and welcoming, supporting and enhancing family life within.Arranged spaciously over three floors with a separate one-bedroom cottage attached, extensive gardens and an intriguing tunnelled entrance with cellar rooms, this versatile home is a unique piece of history. The building's orientation captures some stunning views of the village, its lush village green and the sea, whilst rewarding its interior with an effusive wash of light, illuminating every room in an individual manner and presenting a captivating vibrancy that makes every minute in this home a joy.As part of a village with some very old cottages at its heart, a wealth of heritage and listed buildings and with excellent road and public transport links to the City of Brighton and Hove and the capital, the location couldn't be any better, offering sublime country aesthetics with convenient access to the hub of urban city living. Local shops are a few feet away and nearby Portslade and Hove offer a broad range of independent retail outlets, restaurants, bars and amenities; the surrounding countryside offers some amazing walks and the coast with all of its attractions is a short distance south. Local schools are excellent and the sought-after private schools of Lancing and Brighton College are easily accessible. This prestigious property with its rich heritage and history, stunning views, peaceful gardens and versatility is a family home in the true sense of the word, but one of age-old glamour and style.In More Detail Front Garden Whychcote is enclosed within a flint and brick wall bordered with lush green plants and trees, imparting a privacy and sense of tranquility to the property. Access to the front of the property is from the street via a pretty archway set with original bolted gates positioned within the flint wall. From here a paved pathway leads directly to the impressive solid oak front d
