Chain-free Grade II listed cottage on a third of an acre with private chalk stream and pond views.
Grade II listed cottage with mill pond views
A Grade II listed semi-detached cottage set on about a third of an acre with uninterrupted views over the village mill pond. The plot is unusually large for the property size and includes private woodland and a chalk stream running into the pond opposite. Two garages and generous off-street parking are accessed from Watery Lane.
The cottage offers two bedrooms, a sitting room with pond views, a kitchen and a bathroom within approximately 883 sq ft. Heating is by room heaters and wood logs; the building has solid brick walls and is assumed to lack modern insulation. Broadband speeds and mobile signal are average to slow in this rural setting.
This is a substantial renovation project with excellent potential. Chain-free sale makes progression straightforward, but the Grade II listing will limit structural and external alterations and may complicate planning or refurbishment. Buyers should factor listed-status constraints, the need for full renovation, and traditional heating when budgeting.
For someone wanting a peaceful countryside retreat close to the South Downs National Park and five miles from Chichester, this property is a rare canvas: character, water frontage and large private grounds, balanced against the cost and restrictions of sympathetic restoration.
