An attractive two-bedroom detached cottage in a small, well-regarded village development three miles east of Chichester. The property combines cottage character—exposed brickwork, pitched roof and a feature fireplace—with practical modern living including an open-plan kitchen/dining room and off-street parking for two vehicles via a gravel driveway and carport. The secluded, landscaped rear garden is low-maintenance and private, ideal for alfresco dining or pot gardening.
Built in the late 1990s by a reputable developer, the house is presented in good order and suits buyers seeking a compact, comfortable village home or a low-maintenance retreat close to the South Downs National Park and local amenities. Fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and very low crime levels add to everyday convenience and security.
Notable practical points: the property is freehold, has mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators, and comes with an annual communal upkeep charge of approximately £600. The home is assessed at EPC D and lies in Council Tax Band E (Chichester District), which prospective buyers should factor into ongoing running costs. The rear garden and modest plot size mean external space is private but limited, which may suit downsizers or those wanting lower-maintenance grounds rather than buyers seeking extensive gardens.
Overall this is a neatly presented, characterful village cottage that offers a convenient base for Chichester and the South Downs. It will particularly appeal to downsizers, part-time residents or buyers seeking a low-upkeep primary home with good local connections and a strong sense of place.
