Petworth, West Sussex

Commercial Mortgages & Property Finance in Petworth

Petworth is a small West Sussex town dominated by Petworth House, one of the National Trust's greatest properties with an art collection including works by Turner. The town's narrow streets, antique shops, and galleries create an intimate, cultured atmosphere. Petworth's position in the South Downs National Park constrains development but supports very high property values.
