Set on a highly sought-after private road within the South Downs National Park, the cul-de-sac of Shirleys has a history from 1631 when the land was given as a marriage settlement to Henry and Sarah Shirley. In the 1940s the land was an apple orchard and many of the trees remain in the gardens of the present houses.
Quinton Lodge has one of the largest West facing plots which is divided into three garden rooms, a main lawn, a small three tree apple orchard and an area which would make an ideal vegetable plot. At the other side of the hedge are horses and sometimes pygmy goats.
Upon entering, the ground floor opens to a dining room with double aspect windows, this leads to a triple aspect sitting room with beamed fireplace and fitted dresser with cupboards and open shelves. A second reception room with fireplace and tiled shelf recess has sliding windows to the south aspect side garden.
Adjacent to the dining room is a kitchen with all Bosch up-to-date appliances. The first floor is home to three good-sized bedrooms, one with an en-suite shower room. All have deep fitted wardrobe cupboards and there is a family bathroom on this level, as well as a loft hatch with pull-down ladder and lighting.
The attractive house is set back from the private road and has a gravel driveway with garage and parking for several cars. The front garden has a lawn bordered by high hedges, with access to the garage.
The large rear, with its westerly orientation is mainly laid to lawn bordered by plants, trees and shrubs. A spacious terrace area, ideal for outdoor dining, is surrounded by established trees and tall hedging providing a sense of seclusion.
The attractive, purpose-built garden room with WC offers a separate office space which could alternatively be used as a teenager’s room.

Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
