Full description
A charming barn conversion in a delightful village setting.
Forming part of the idyllic Saxon Meadow development, a characterful collection of beautifully converted flint and brick agricultural barns, this delightful home enjoys an enviable position within the sought-after Sussex village of Tangmere.
Approached via the picturesque Church Lane, passing the historic St Andrew’s Church, whose origins date back to the early 12th century, the development offers a peaceful semi-rural atmosphere whilst remaining conveniently connected to nearby amenities and transport links.
Occupying an attractive edge-of-development position, the property benefits from views over an adjoining meadow, currently being rewilded to encourage local wildlife, which is owned and maintained by the residents’ management company. This unique setting creates a wonderful sense of space and tranquillity rarely found in modern developments.
The accommodation is both bright and welcoming. The front door opens into a dual-aspect open-plan sitting room and kitchen, where a vaulted beamed ceiling enhances the feeling of light, character and volume. An inner hallway leads to a ground-floor bedroom and modern shower room. Upstairs, the principal bedroom enjoys pleasant views towards the meadow and surrounding countryside beyond.
Outside, residents enjoy access to beautifully maintained communal courtyard-style gardens, providing an attractive contrast to the natural meadow landscape at the rear. The setting is particularly appealing for those who appreciate wildlife, open space and a strong sense of community.
Further benefits include a private garage and additional allocated visitor parking within the development.

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.
