This four-bedroom link-detached house in Marden Avenue offers substantial scope for a family seeking space and long-term value. Set on a decent plot with an enclosed rear garden, garage and private driveway, the layout includes an open-plan living/dining room and a separate kitchen — a practical family arrangement that will reward upfront investment.
The property is offered with no onward chain and benefits from fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and proximity to good and outstanding schools, making it well-suited to growing families. It sits in an affluent, ageing suburban neighbourhood close to Chichester’s amenities, the South Downs and coastal attractions, with straightforward road and rail links for commuting.
The house requires modernisation throughout: the build era (1970s) means dated fixtures, double glazing installed before 2002, assumed uninsulated cavity walls and an EPC rating of D. There is one family bathroom for four bedrooms and council tax is listed as expensive — all factors to budget for when planning refurbishment. The single garage and driveway give useful parking and storage during works.
For buyers willing to renovate, the home presents clear potential to create a contemporary, energy-efficient family home in a desirable location. Investors may consider the rental prospects after updating, but should factor in costs to improve energy performance and modern living amenities.
