A superbly presented and recently renovated former coaching house, situated within the heart of historic Chichester, with well proportioned accommodation throughout and the benefit of a garage.

Coachmans House is a fine example of a period townhouse located in a prime city centre position. The Pallants are designed in four parts, like the City Centre itself, north, south, east and west. The area was built mainly for residential occupation and is in the parish of All Saints. Arranged over three floors, the property provides extremely versatile accommodation of just under 3,000 sq ft. Combining contemporary living with period charm, this stunning property is ideal for city centre family living and has the ability to form eight bedrooms.

Upon entering the property there is a spacious triple height reception hall featuring a modern stairwell with glass balustrades. Beyond there is the main drawing room, with feature fireplace and two sets of French doors opening on to the garden. To one side you enter a dining room which is open plan to an extremely stylish kitchen, with ample storage and range of integrated appliances. To the other side of the drawing room there is a garden room/snug. A cloakroom completes the ground floor.

Upstairs the main bedroom is a particular feature. Situated towards the front of the property, with built-in wardrobes, there is a private circular staircase leading up to a modern Jack & Jill en suite shower room. To the rear of the first floor there is a media/first floor living room, and to the side two study's (one with a wood burning stove), and a first floor guest bedroom suite. On the second floor there are three further bedrooms (two en suite).

Ideal for entertaining, the private rear courtyard garden is accessed from both the main drawing room and garden room. A gate opens to a rear parking area, which has three parking spaces and access to a garage/workshop.

Location

Coachmans House is particularly well situated in this sought after road in the heart of the City Centre which is an easily accessible mainly level pedestrian area. The position is ideal, within a short walk to the excellent shopping facilities, the bus and railway stations. The beautiful cathedral City of Chichester has a fascinating history and considerable connections with the Roman Empire as seen by the archaeological remains of the city walls. Trade and prosperity flourished particularly during the early 1800's with the construction of the imposing Corn Exchange in East Street and the beautifully preserved streets of the City. There is a wide choice of social and recreational activities including a multi-screen cinema, sports centres with swimming pools, and a fine selection of restaurants, wine bars and bistros. In addition, for those in pursuit of cultural activities, there is the award winning Pallant House Gallery (located just around the corner) and the internationally renowned Festival Theatre.

There are excellent schools in the area. In the private sector are Prebendal, Oakwood, Great Ballard, Seaford College, Westbourne House School, Portsmouth Grammar and Bedales. Secondary schools in the public sector in Chichester are Bishop Luffa Church of England and the Girls and Boys High Schools. Chichester is unique in having both a College of Further Education and a University. Dell Quay, about 2.5 miles, is a wonderful yacht haven with excellent facilities including, a slipway, swinging moorings, storage area and boat yard. There are also good yachting facilities at Chichester Marina, Birdham Pool and at Itchenor, home to the Chichester Harbour Conservancy and the Itchenor Sailing Club. The Salterns Way footpath and cycle route is a 12 mile path running from Chichester via Fishbourne to Birdham, Itchenor and on to the lovely sandy Blue Flag beach at West Wittering. At Chichester it connects with the Centurion Way to provide access to the South Downs National Park. Further sporting activities in the area include; horse racing at Goodwood and Fontwell, polo at Cowdray Park near Midhurst, the Goodwood Festival of Speed and Revival events for motoring enthusiasts and golf at nearby Rowlands Castle and Goodwood.

Communications are excellent with a nearby mainline station providing a regular service to London Victoria, and Havant station which provides a fast service to London Waterloo in about 1 hour 20 minutes. The A27 trunk road provides access to Worthing and Brighton to the East and Portsmouth, Havant and Southampton to the west. There are several choices of vehicle access to London, but the closest is probably the A286 from Chichester via Midhurst, joining the A3 at Milford.
