Full description

A character semi-detached cottages with views over farmland.

A charming three-bedroom semi-detached period cottage, beautifully and sympathetically refurbished, enjoying uninterrupted views across open farmland. Positioned in a most desirable semi-rural setting just three miles south-east of the historic city of Chichester.

Approached via gentle rising steps, the front door opens into a welcoming traditional entrance hall. The elegant yet cosy sitting room is rich in character, featuring a mellow exposed brick wall, a wood-burning stove and picturesque views across the farmland, a truly inviting space for relaxed country living. To the rear, the spacious kitchen/dining room is appointed with classic shaker-style cabinetry, a porcelain butler sink, integrated cooker hood and dishwasher, seamlessly combining timeless design with modern convenience. A useful utility room provides further storage, space and plumbing for a washing machine and houses the oil-fired boiler. The first floor offers three bedrooms, including two doubles and a charming single bedroom which is currently utilised as a dressing room, all served by a stylish contemporary bathroom.

Externally, the property continues to impress with a meticulously landscaped, secluded south-facing garden, designed for both relaxation and entertaining. An ornate extended patio provides two distinct seating areas, complemented by a lawn and a striking flint boundary wall with exterior lighting, elegantly adorned with climbing pink roses. Off-road parking for two vehicles completes this inviting home.

Why live in Chichester?

We consider ourselves very lucky to be working in a city that blends so many different architectural styles, from elegant Georgian buildings to contemporary new apartments and waterside properties that overlook the harbour.

In 2013, The Sunday Times listed Chichester as one of the top places to live in the UK with ‘something for everyone’ – and they weren’t wrong. Chichester is a cathedral city, a county town and home to some of the oldest churches and buildings in the country. There are many well-regarded public and state schools in the local area with further and higher education options available from Chichester College, West Dean College and the University of Chichester. Our great schools have always made Chichester very appealing for those looking for the perfect place to raise a family.

Our city centre is a shopper’s paradise and there are great places to eat and drink, from elegant restaurants to cosy cafés and pubs, all set along the city’s four main streets. Chichester Cathedral on West Street dominates the skyline and, on summer afternoons, its grounds are filled with local people enjoying picnics. In the evenings, the Cathedral plays a central part in the city’s nightlife by hosting classical music events.

Chichester has a number of public parks, the Chichester Tennis and Racquets Fitness Club and Westgate Leisure Centre, where you’ll find a large swimming pool and skate park and, if sailing is your thing, Chichester Harbour is a haven for you. There really is so much to do here you’ll be spoilt for choice; spend the day on one of the many local beaches, stretch your legs on the stunning South Downs or catch a show at the Festival Theatre before it moves to a permanent home in London’s West End.
