Set back in a peaceful semi-rural hamlet six miles from Chichester, this spacious five-bedroom semi offers versatile family living across a thoughtfully extended layout. The heart of the home is a vaulted sitting room with skylights and a wood burner, flowing into a generous dining/family area and a snug — ideal for relaxed everyday life and larger gatherings. A mezzanine study and a ground-floor bedroom with adjacent cloakroom make the house well-suited to home-working and multigenerational use.
The property sits on a huge west-facing plot with a covered stone terrace and a timber summer house, providing private outdoor living and scope for gardening or further landscaping. Off-street parking for multiple vehicles adds practical convenience. The house has been sympathetically extended from its original 1930s/40s build and retains character while providing contemporary, airy spaces.
Important practical points: heating is oil-fired with boiler and radiators, the cavity walls are assumed to have no retrofit insulation, and broadband speeds are average — factors to weigh for running costs and modern connectivity needs. There is an annual private road maintenance charge of £100. Local primary provision includes a nearby school rated ‘requires improvement’, while several secondary options hold ‘good’ Ofsted ratings.
Overall this property will suit growing families or anyone needing generous indoor and outdoor space with a semi-rural feel and good access to Chichester and nearby beaches. It offers immediate liveability with clear potential for energy and connectivity upgrades should a buyer wish to invest in further improvements.
