Full description

An impressive semi-detached home with planning permission for a substantial rear extension in sought-after Parklands.

A bright and spacious traditional 1950s semi-detached house, situated in a highly sought-after location in Parklands, approximately one mile north-west of Chichester city centre and within easy reach of local schools and amenities.

The property is tastefully presented throughout and benefits from planning permission for a full-width single-storey rear extension under planning application CC/26/00973/DOM, creating an excellent opportunity to enlarge the existing accommodation with a new kitchen/family room if desired.

The accommodation comprises an entrance hall with a shower room to one side and a dual-aspect sitting room featuring a recessed wood-burning stove with oak beam above. Double-glazed sliding patio doors open into a garden room/conservatory, which has a solid vaulted ceiling and French doors leading onto the rear garden.

The spacious kitchen/diner is fitted with mid-oak-fronted cupboards, an integrated electric oven and hob with cooker hood over, together with a glazed door providing access to the rear garden.

On the first floor are three bedrooms and a newly created family bathroom with a separate shower over the bath.

Outside, a wide block-paved driveway provides parking for two cars, with the remainder of the front garden laid to lawn and enclosed by fencing with attractive brick piers. The enclosed rear garden features a paved patio, raised decking, lawn and established borders, providing a pleasant and versatile outdoor space.

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.
