Full description

A fine Grade II character home situated in a mature village setting about two and a half miles south of Chichester

Believed to date back to the late Victorian period, The Old Post Office served as the central hub of North Mundham village while housing both the Post Office and the Telegraph Office when the telephone was introduced in 1903. Since then, the property has been thoughtfully converted and extended to offer a generous family residence exuding charm and character.

This delightful home seamlessly blends traditional features with modern amenities tailored to suit contemporary living requirements. Upon entrance, a welcoming hallway with a convenient boot room leads to a spacious sitting room boasting French doors and steps leading up to the rear garden. The heart of the home resides in the kitchen/dining/family room, featuring high-quality Sylvarna oak fronted units, granite worktops and a central island/breakfast bar complete with a vegetable preparation sink unit. The kitchen also includes integrated appliances such as a dishwasher, washing machine, fridge, and freezer, along with ample space for a range style cooker. Additionally, there is a study/bedroom 5 providing a separate retreat area. Upstairs, the property comprises four bedrooms and a family bathroom. The dual-aspect principal bedroom showcases a distinctive oriel window and an en-suite bathroom while the landing boasts a quaint seating area and a spacious walk-in wardrobe.

Outside, a private driveway accommodates parking for two cars, with a side gate granting access to the south-facing rear garden. This outdoor space features an extensive lawn, a spacious patio, a west-facing summer house, mature borders. A brick built workshop equipped with lighting and power supply is perfect for DIY enthusiasts.

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.
