Full description

Edwardian cottage with period charm and a south facing garden.

A beautifully restored Edwardian cottage backing onto the ancient city wall, this home perfectly blends period character with stylish contemporary living. Steeped in charm, it retains numerous original features including picture rails, fireplaces and panelled doors, while offering modern comforts throughout.

The welcoming entrance hall leads to a sitting room with an open fireplace and surround, a separate dining room and a classic Shaker-style kitchen fitted with integrated appliances including an electric oven, gas hob, cooker hood and integrated dishwasher. Beyond the kitchen, the utility area is equipped with a microwave, fridge and freezer, and gives access to a ground floor shower room and WC.

Upstairs, there are two well-proportioned bedrooms with the main bedroom to the front having built in wardrobes along one wall. There is a spacious bathroom, finished with a freestanding bath and a deep walk-in shower. Each room has been thoughtfully designed to combine traditional character with a fresh, contemporary style.

Outside, the property enjoys a low-walled forecourt garden to the front. A side gate opens to an open-fronted shed and a path leading to the delightful south-facing walled rear garden. The garden features a large patio, a small lawn, decking at the far end and well-stocked borders, creating a private and inviting outdoor space ideal for both entertaining and quiet relaxation.

Located just steps from the pedestrianised city centre shopping precinct, this charming home offers an exceptional combination of style and convenience.

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.
