Full description

Situated in a secluded and picturesque semi-rural setting, this two-bedroom end terrace cottage presents a rare opportunity for those seeking a property with excellent potential for modernisation and improvement. Nestled on the outskirts of Chichester, this charming residence offers a tranquil retreat while still being conveniently located just five miles from the town centre.

The property boasts ample scope for extension, subject to obtaining the necessary planning permissions, making it an attractive proposition for those looking to create their dream home in a sought-after location. With its own private garden, the property also benefits from an adjacent paddock. The total area spans approximately two acres, providing a sense of space and tranquillity rarely found in properties of this nature.

Upon entering the residence, there is an entrance hall leading to a sitting room. An inner hall flows into a separate dining room, and the kitchen. Additional features include a conservatory with underfloor heating, perfect for enjoying the garden, and a convenient wet room.

The first floor comprises a dual aspect principal bedroom, a second bedroom, and a bathroom complete with a classic rolltop bath, adding a touch of elegance to the space. The property also benefits from two allocated parking spaces, ensuring convenience for residents and guests alike.

The garden, which wraps around the property, is mainly laid to lawn, creating an ideal space for outdoor activities and al fresco dining. Beyond the garden, a woodland area provides a sense of seclusion and privacy.

Noteworthy to mention is the upcoming installation of a new shared waste treatment centre in autumn 2024. Once operational, the associated running costs will be evenly divided between the three cottages. The area shaded in pink on the plan is to be equally owned and maintained (shared cost) by the three cottages.

Why live in Chichester?

1 of 9

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.
