From learning to ride bikes out the front in the quiet cul-de-sac to building dens in our woodland, this house has been at the centre of so many happy family memories.

The village has a wonderful family feel, with a real sense of community and fantastic neighbours of all ages. The renowned primary school is just a four-minute walk away and the bus stop for the Ofstead outstanding secondary school is only two minutes from the house, which has made family life so easy for us. We’ve loved the peaceful setting, hearing birdsong during the day while working from home and tawny owls at night, as well as regularly spotting deer in the garden. In spring, the garden comes alive with bluebells, foxgloves, rhododendrons, and azaleas bursting with colour. With beautiful walks nearby, lovely pubs and restaurants and the beach within easy reach, it’s been a wonderful place to live.

Sellers Insight “I will be very sad to leave Lion Court Lodge. This has been my much-loved home for 34 happy years, and I have always treasured the peace, privacy and tranquillity that comes with living on Dancing Hill. The views are something I will miss enormously. Waking up to the wildlife, with deer, woodpeckers and the dawn chorus, has been a real privilege. Some of my happiest memories have been spent around the swimming pool. On warm summer weekends, it has always been a wonderful gathering place for children, family and friends. Swimming and entertaining after dark, with the pool lights glowing and the stars overhead, has felt quite magical. After 34 years, the time has come for me to downsize.
