Full Details for 3 Bedroom Semi-Detached for sale in Chichester, PO18 :
A genuinely rare opportunity to acquire this truly stunning home set in a quiet rural lane, south of the A259, and within a short walk of the harbour foreshore.
As the name suggests, this impressive home was originally built as a farm workers cottage in 1956, and has since been cleverly extended and comprehensively modernised by the current owners to create a beautiful home in these idyllic surroundings.
Forming part of an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this superbly presented property offers good sized accommodation arranged over two floors and has been finished to a particularly high standard throughout. This exceptional home really must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
The oak pillared porch entrance with a solid oak door opens into the spacious entrance hall. There is a cloakroom and return staircase to the first floor (storage cupboard underneath). Tiled flooring (with under floor heating) has been installed in the cloakroom, utility room and kitchen. The utility room has a range of fitted units, built-in washing machine, dryer and freezer, and a rear door to the paved courtyard garden area. The dual aspect kitchen/breakfast room features an excellent range of hand painted wall and base units with Corian work surfaces over. There is a built-in full sized dishwasher, range cooker and space for a breakfast table. The spacious and thoughtfully designed ground floor layout incorporates two formal reception rooms and an additional 'L' shaped living space which is currently used as a sunroom and family area.
Upstairs the landing with hatch to the insulated loft space provides access to the three good sized double bedrooms, two with bespoke built-in wardrobes, and a beautifully appointed family bathroom which features a large bath and separate shower cubicle. The master bedroom has the additional benefit of far-reaching views over adjoining farmland towards Chichester Harbour.
Outside
At the front of the property there is a graveled off-road parking area with space for up to four cars. A five bar gate opens to an additional driveway area, which continues onto the brick built garage/workshop. This has a remote controlled door, power and lighting connected, and a useful overhead storage area. The rear garden lies to three sides of the house and is predominantly south facing. Mostly laid to lawn and having a large paved patio area at the rear of the house, the garden offers a good degree of privacy and enjoys rural views to the south-east. A paved courtyard area, accessible by a gate and also the utility room can be found to the eastern side of the house. A particular feature of the garden is the purpose built, high quality home studio/office, which has double glazed windows and power and lighting connected.
The Area
The property is situated in a convenient location between Emsworth and Chichester. Nutbourne railway halt and the main bus route are both within walking distance of the property, providing links to Chichester, Portsmouth and beyond. The cathedral city of Chichester is situated approximately 6 miles to the east and offers excellent high street shopping and leisure facilities to suit all. Emsworth lies 3 miles to the west and has a good range of local shops as well as its quay, fronting the head of Chichester harbour, where many harbourside walks can be enjoyed. A footpath at the end of Farm Lane leads down to the foreshore and onto both Prinsted and Chidham.
