Full description
This exceptional apartment forms part of a sympathetically converted Grade II* Listed King Edward VII, set within 165 acres of parkland and surrounded by the rolling countryside of the South Downs National Park.
Positioned on the highly sought-after south-facing elevation of the main building, the apartment occupies the top two floors, benefitting from complete privacy with no residences above and only partial accommodation beneath. Conveniently, a lift provides direct access to the entrance, opening adjacent to the front door.
A defining feature of this residence is its magnificent private terrace, offering an unrivalled space for outdoor dining and entertaining. Detached from neighbouring terraces, it affords total seclusion and uninterrupted panoramic views across the South Downs – truly the best vantage point on the estate.
Internally, the property combines elegance with comfort. The principal living spaces are light and generously proportioned, enhanced by high ceilings and original mullion windows that frame the spectacular southerly outlook. The specification is of a high standard throughout, including decorative cast-iron radiators, bespoke storage solutions, quality wooden flooring, and luxurious bathroom fittings.
Externally, residents enjoy access to the beautifully landscaped Gertrude Jekyll–designed gardens, as well as two allocated underground parking spaces.
The wider estate has been meticulously restored, preserving the grandeur of its early 20th-century origins while providing a range of amenities for modern living. Facilities include a residents’ gym, indoor swimming pool, extensive private woodland walks, and a guest suite for visitors. A dedicated on-site building manager is also available to provide assistance and ensure the smooth running of the estate.

Why live in Midhurst?
Midhurst lies on the River Rother, just 12 miles north of Chichester, and has the remarkable claim to fame of being the home of British polo thanks to the Cowdray Park Polo Club on the local Cowdray Estate, but there’s so much more to this pretty market town. It’s centuries old, boasting more than 100 listed buildings with a charming mix of medieval, Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian architecture that sits comfortably alongside more contemporary new homes.
The narrow lanes of Midhurst’s old town offer a fantastic variety of places to shop with an abundance of small independent boutiques all housed in ancient buildings. There are plenty of places to dine in and around the town centre, too, with options ranging from up-market restaurants specialising in local produce to high street favourites and charming tearooms where you can enjoy your favourite afternoon treat.
