Full description
55 Elmleigh, also known as Woodpeckers, is a substantial four-bedroom detached family home, beautifully presented and significantly improved in recent years. Nestled in a peaceful and secluded location, the property is just half a mile from the centre of Midhurst – a charming and historic market town offering a wide range of everyday amenities.
The accommodation is spacious, well-arranged, and thoughtfully designed for modern family living. The welcoming entrance hall leads to a versatile study, which could also serve as a fifth bedroom. The heart of the home is a large, fully fitted kitchen, ideal for entertaining, featuring a five-ring gas hob, two electric ovens, integrated dishwasher, and fridge. This flows effortlessly into the dining area, with access to a utility room, conservatory, and a generous drawing room. The drawing room is divided into two comfortable seating areas, one with a woodburning stove, and double doors open out onto a decked terrace and the rear garden.
Upstairs are four well-proportioned double bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from an en suite bathroom, while a second bedroom includes an en suite shower room. A stylish family bathroom completes the first floor.
The property is approached via a private brick-paved driveway, offering ample parking and access to a large garage with an electric door. The front garden is lawned with mature hedging and a charming picket fence. The rear garden is equally attractive, featuring two decked areas, a paved terrace, and well-stocked borders providing year-round interest.

Why live in Midhurst?
Midhurst lies on the River Rother, just 12 miles north of Chichester, and has the remarkable claim to fame of being the home of British polo thanks to the Cowdray Park Polo Club on the local Cowdray Estate, but there’s so much more to this pretty market town. It’s centuries old, boasting more than 100 listed buildings with a charming mix of medieval, Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian architecture that sits comfortably alongside more contemporary new homes.
The narrow lanes of Midhurst’s old town offer a fantastic variety of places to shop with an abundance of small independent boutiques all housed in ancient buildings. There are plenty of places to dine in and around the town centre, too, with options ranging from up-market restaurants specialising in local produce to high street favourites and charming tearooms where you can enjoy your favourite afternoon treat.
