Property description
Occupying a favourable central location within this desirable West Sussex village, Treagust & Co are delighted to present this deceptively spacious Grade II listed character home which is beautifully presented throughout.
Forge Cottage has been cleverly extended to provide good sized family orientated accommodation arranged over two floors whilst retaining a wealth of period features throughout. The impressive kitchen/living room with its vaulted beamed ceiling features a great range of cream fronted kitchen units set under granite work surfaces, space for a range style cooker, utility cupboard and oak flooring which continues through to the living area which has a feature log burning stove and bi-folding doors opening out to the garden. The entrance hall with its cloaks/shower room and understairs storage cupboard also provides access to the spacious sitting room with open fireplace and a further reception room which could be used as a study or fourth bedroom if required.
Upstairs there are three good sized bedrooms and a family bathroom. There is a useful walk-in storage cupboard which can be accessed from one of the front aspect bedrooms.
Outside
At the front of the property there is off-road parking space and a larger than average single garage which has overhead storage space, two side windows and power/lighting connected. There is a small enclosed front garden area with pathway leading to the front door.
Offering a good degree of privacy, the partially walled generous rear garden has a full width paved terrace with central steps leading up to the lawn area. Planted borders feature a good variety of plants, flowering shrubs and small trees. Trellising with climbing plants at the end of the garden screens a garden store, oil tank and gate with pedestrian access.
Area
The property is situated in the popular village of Funtington. There is a village shop, farm shop, public house, restaurant and a 13th century church, all within easy walking distance of the house. With the South Downs being virtually on the doorstep there are numerous walks and rides to be enjoyed locally. The cathedral city of Chichester is situated approximately 5 miles to the east and offers excellent high street shopping and leisure facilities to suit all. Emsworth lies 5 miles to the west and has a good range of local shops as well as its quay fronting the head of Chichester harbour.
