Property description

Occupying a convenient position within this popular West Sussex village, Treagust & Co are delighted to offer for sale this well presented Victorian family home with an outstanding 150' (45.7m) rear garden.

This sympathetically modernised home has been tastefully improved by the current owners and offers a great balance of traditional character features and modern conveniences.

The glazed front door opens into the entrance hall which provides access to the ground floor accommodation and has stairs leading to the first floor (storage cupboard underneath). Enjoying a southerly aspect, the sitting room with its double glazed sash window, features an open fireplace with wooden surround and tiled hearth. The kitchen and dining room are to the rear of the home and there is a stable-style door opening into the lean-to utility that has space and plumbing for a washing machine, and provides direct access to the garden.

On the first floor there are three bedrooms, two of which are doubles with built-in wardrobes, and the third has sea glimpses towards Chichester Harbour. The impressive family bathroom features a roll-top bath, corner shower cubicle and twin wash hand basins. A combined heated towel rail and radiator are located adjacent to the rear aspect double glazed window.

Outside

A wrought iron gate on the front boundary opens into the beautifully designed cottage style front garden with side pathway leading to the front door.

The large rear garden, extending to approximately 150' (45.7m) is arranged into many different areas of interest. To the rear of the house there is a large decked area with timber shed which is enclosed by panel fencing. The garden continues onto an area mostly laid to lawn with established beds and borders and a central fish pond with further seating area. The remainder of the garden is laid mainly to lawn and backs onto Southbourne Infant & Junior School. A large timber shed and greenhouse can be found at the end of the plot.

The Area

Southbourne has a good range of local amenities including convenience stores, railway station with links to Chichester and London, churches, and doctors surgery, all within easy walking distance of the property. A particular advantage of the location of this property is its close proximity to Southbourne Infant and Junior schools, the Bourne Community College is also within easy walking distance.
