Heathfield Gardens, Midhurst, GU29

Full description

Occupying a delightful position within an established residential setting, this attractive 1930s family home has been lovingly maintained and enjoyed by the same family for more than 50 years. Full of warmth, character and cherished memories, the property combines original period features with thoughtful modern improvements, creating a home that is both practical for modern living and rich in history.

The property enjoys a fascinating heritage, having been built in the 1930s with connections to a well-known local family. During the Second World War the house provided accommodation for evacuees, and it has continued to play an important role in family life through three generations ever since.

Internally, the house has retained much of its original charm, including the original internal doors, staircase and handrail, all of which contribute to its characterful atmosphere. The well-balanced accommodation extends to approximately 1,077 sq ft and offers excellent storage throughout, reflecting the practical design of homes from this era.

The ground floor centres around a welcoming entrance hall leading to two generous reception rooms. The sitting room provides a comfortable retreat and flows through to the conservatory, which enjoys pleasant views of the garden. Opposite, the dining room provides an excellent space for family gatherings and entertaining, continuing a tradition of memorable family celebrations that have taken place here over many decades.

To the rear, the kitchen was extended in the late 1970s. Today it forms a practical and sociable hub of the home, fitted with a modern Howdens kitchen. A useful study offers flexibility for home working, hobbies or as a third bedroom. The shower room was modernised in 2010 and has been further enhanced with a replacement shower in 2020.

The first floor comprises two particularly spacious double bedrooms, both benefitting from extensive built-in wardrobes and vanity units. One bedroom incorporates a discreet WC, whilst the other has an airing cupboard, providing useful ancillary facilities.

A notable feature of the property is the abundance of storage. In addition to the fitted wardrobes, there are two loft spaces, including a substantial loft extending the length of the house. These areas provide exceptional storage potential and subject to the necessary consent, additional potential to extend/convert similar to others in the road.

Outside, the gardens have evolved to meet the needs of successive generations. The former front vegetable garden, now provides driveway parking alongside an area of lawn, washing line and a useful garden shed. To the rear and side, the gardens offer a wonderful blend of practical outdoor space and areas for relaxation, featuring a patio ideal for outdoor dining, a raised lawn and attractive flower borders.

The property has been carefully improved and maintained over the years, including replacement roof tiles in 2021, new carpets throughout in 2021, cavity wall insulation, and a Vaillant combi boiler installed in 2024.

A rare opportunity to acquire a much-loved family home with a unique local history, generous accommodation, excellent storage and beautifully established gardens, all within easy reach of the amenities and surrounding countryside that make this area so desirable.
