1 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

A charming semi detached period cottage which has been extended and updated by the current owner with the benefit of off-street parking and storage opposite the property.

DESCRIPTION:

Located just 2 miles from Chichester city centre in the popular village of Hunston, Loreto is a deceptively spacious and surprisingly light semi-detached period cottage with many character features including beamed ceilings, exposed brickwork and a secluded, well-stocked, mature rear garden and terrace.

GROUND FLOOR:

The front door leads into the sitting room with bay window with shutters and window seat overlooking the front garden, feature wall and wood burning stove. In the corner of the room is a spiral staircase leading to the first floor behind which is a ‘quirky’ cloakroom with low level WC, industrial style wash hand basin and exposed brickwork.

An opening from the sitting room leads into a beautifully appointed kitchen extension with a range of base and wall cupboards, breakfast bar, Butler sink, range cooker, tiled floor, exposed ceiling beams and a roof lantern which floods the space with natural light. Glazed double doors lead to the terrace and garden.

FIRST FLOOR:

From the sitting room the spiral staircase leads to the first floor bedroom with roof light, fitted hanging space and window overlooking the front with shutters. A door leads to the stylish bathroom which has a heated towel rail, gas boiler, low level WC, wash hand basin and bath with tiled surround, glazed screen and shower over.

OUTSIDE:

To the front of the property is a small walled garden with mature plants and shrubs and a pedestrian gate.

To the rear is an east facing garden with a decked area directly accessed from the kitchen leading to a paved pathway bounded by specimen trees and shrubs providing an excellent degree of privacy. At the far end of the garden is a small timber shed.

The vendor has advised that there is a paved hardstanding opposite on other side of road providing off-street parking leading to a useful large metal storage container.

LOCATION:

Hunston sits just to the south of Chichester city centre and benefits from a local public house, Post Office and shop. There is a regular bus service to Chichester and the cottage is very close to the canal path which offers a pleasant walk into the city centre.

Chichester offers an excellent range of shops, supermarkets, restaurants and bars with many leisure facilities including parks, the renowned Festival Theatre, Pallant House Gallery and the historic Chichester Cathedral. There is a mainline railway station with services to London Victoria and along the coast to Portsmouth, Brighton and Southampton.

Located to the north of Chichester is the Goodwood Estate, which is famous for its many sporting event days including the much-celebrated Festival of Speed and Goodwood Revival for motor racing enthusiasts, and a season of horse racing including the Glorious Goodwood Festival. The South Downs National Park is within easy reach and Chichester Harbour, along with Chichester Marina and Birdham Pool, are also within close proximity, the harbour being home to several popular sailing clubs. To the south west is the sandy beach at West Wittering and the National Trust’s East Head sand dune spit at the stunning entrance to Chichester Harbour.
