Set on the southern periphery of the glorious South Downs National Park, the property combines a peaceful village setting with excellent convenience, being just two and a half miles north of Chichester.
The house features attractive flint and brick elevations and is believed to have originally been built as a coach house, retaining much of its period character.
The accommodation is well arranged and versatile. An entrance hall leads to an L-shaped sitting/dining room with a feature fireplace and wood-burning stove, creating a warm and welcoming focal point.
The galley kitchen is fitted with shaker-style units and benefits from a stable door opening to the rear garden.
A conservatory, accessed via French doors from both the dining area and kitchen, provides a delightful space to enjoy the garden and views beyond.
On the ground floor there are two bedrooms and a shower room. The first floor offers two further bedrooms, each enjoying spectacular countryside views, along with a family bathroom.
Outside, the property is approached via a wide gravel driveway providing ample off-road parking.
To the rear lies a long garden, predominantly laid to lawn with a patio area, well-established borders and a high flint retaining wall to one side.
A gate at the far end of the garden opens directly onto a country pathway, perfect for walkers and nature lovers.
