A spacious two bedroom ground floor apartment forming part of an attractive flint and brick purpose-built building comprising just seven apartments on the popular Roussillon Park development about one mile north of the city centre.

Currently arranged as a one bedroom home, the present owners have created an archway between bedroom two and the living area to create a study/music room. However, the stud partition wall could easily be reinstated if required. The property is accessed via a communal hall serving each of the apartments which has a security entry phone system. A private front door opens to the bright entrance hall which has a window allowing natural light to flood in. The main open living space has a sunny dual aspect with the well-appointed kitchen at one end and the sitting room at the other. The kitchen has integrated appliances including a gas hob, cooker hood, electric oven, fridge, freezer, dishwasher and washer/drier. A square opening leads to the study/second bedroom. Bedroom one and a bathroom complete the accommodation.

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.
