Property description

THE PROPERTY This stunning and unique Grade II listed period cottage would appeal to anyone wishing to live in an historical property with all the benefits of contemporary style living.



Situated in a conservation area this house is within easy walking distance from the riverfront and Littlehampton‘s long sandy beaches, the mainline train station and comprehensive shopping/leisure facilities.



This beautiful home has been sympathetically restored whilst retaining a wealth of original architectural features including original sash windows and doors, fireplaces, exposed flint and brickwork, original lime plaster and old pine floorboards.



On the ground floor there are three reception rooms, the drawing room which looks out onto the pretty front garden has listed building consent to reinstate the walls with iron railings atop (LU/194/15/L) alternatively may provide off street parking (subject to the usual consents) the formal dining room (which could be used as a third bedroom) with views of the garden and the breakfast room which looks out onto the side terrace.



The kitchen boasts a cathedral ceiling complete with conservation window, copper worktops and access to the walled garden which has a brick terrace leading onto a lawn surrounded by herbaceous flower beds and seating. There is gated access to the side gravel garden and a brick outbuilding, which would be useful for storing bicycles and garden furniture.



The cellar is wonderfully spacious with a restored original brick floor, exposed beams and good head height. Of additional interest are the services running to this area, allowing it to serve as a utility room.



On the first floor, stepping into the bathroom you could be forgiven for thinking you were in a luxurious hotel, this is furnished with a period freestanding bath situated by the fireplace, period washstand and contemporary glass shower enclosure. The master bedroom boasts enviable river views whilst the guest bedroom looks out onto the delightful walled garden.

 

THE LOCATION The property is in River Road, within a minute‘s walk of Littlehampton town centre and the mainline railway station with direct access to London Victoria. Littlehampton Harbour provides access and mooring for yachts and pleasure craft.

Littlehampton lies within sight of the South Downs, between Chichester and Brighton and has become a popular location for second homeowners commuting from London.

There is a wide choice of sporting and recreational activities in the surrounding area including horse racing at both Goodwood and Fontwell park; Car Racing at Goodwood Motor Circuit famously hosting it‘s annual Festival of Speed and Revival meetings; polo at Cowdray park; glorious beaches at the Witterings; dinghy sailing from numerous clubs along the coast with substantial harbours and marinas at Chichester and Littlehampton for mooring larger yachts; numerous golf courses; walking and riding in the rich surrounding countryside.

Littlehampton is an ideal location for anyone interested in a weekend or summer retreat.
