Property description
A hugely flexible detached character home which has been enjoyed by the present owners for two families and presently has self contained living on both the ground and first floors. In its original format it was a substantial period property offering three spacious reception rooms and a large kitchen dining room and five first floor bedrooms but also now has a further two loft rooms (accessed by loft ladder) but which could be accessed via traditional staircase with ease.
Enjoying a wealth of character, it is an ideal place for the larger family or two family occupation and must be seen internally to be appreciated.
As for the area the convenience of Southbourne cannot be rivalled and yet it feels like it is tucked away from the hustle and bustle of modern day living. Excellent schooling for all age groups are with a few minutes’ walk as is a Tesco express, Co-op, chemist, doctor dentist, church, community centre, farm shop and friendly pub.
Miles of country walks spread out in all directions taking you to the South Downs national park or down to the coast at Prinsted for miles of costal paths and walks around the Chichester harbour. Whether you jump on a bike or pull on your boots or get on a horse the area is begging to be explored and if you like water based activities then Emsworth is a Mecca for sailing enthusiasts.
Please refer to the footnote regarding the services and appliances.What the Owner says:
This has been a great home for us and we have really loved living in such a friendly community with everything we need close at hand.
The house has been a great space in which to find our own solitude from each other but is also a wonderful place for larger family gatherings too. The character of the property is lovely with high ceilings and big rooms.
The private rear garden is particularly pretty and is accessed from both the first floor via a staircase and balcony and also the ground floor and with loads of parking to the front plus a large garage it provides space for all. As a family this home has been brilliant but it’s now time to sell and we hope that the next owners will enjoy it as much as we have!
