4 bedroom detached house for sale
Key information
Property description & features
- Tenure: Freehold
Formally arranged as two estate cottages, and now requiring renovation throughout, Philliswood today presents an ideal opportunity to form a superb country home. With brick and flint elevations under a pitched tiled roof, and with a wealth of further period features, the property could be extended to create additional accommodation, subject to the usual planning consents.
On the ground floor there are two reception rooms with the double aspect sitting room providing an inglenook fireplace with wood burning stove. Wooden casement windows overlook the garden and grounds to the rear. To one side there is a further room, which has a doorway opening towards the driveway. To the rear of the secondary reception room doors lead to the kitchen, an inner hallway and a cloakroom. Beyond the kitchen there is a throughway vestibule with the integrated garage attached to one side. On the first floor, accessed from a long landing, there are four bedrooms (one en suite bathroom) and a further bathroom.
The garden, grounds and location are a particular feature. Extending to approximately 0.83 acres and mainly laid to lawn, there are many flowering shrubs and plants within the borders along with some mature trees. To the rear of the house an area of the grounds have been arranged as a kitchen garden, where there are two greenhouses. To the front of the property there is a good sized driveway allowing parking for a number of vehicles, along with access to the garage.
Tucked away in the secluded and rural setting of the South Downs National Park, the beautiful hamlet of Hooksway lies between the city of Chichester and market town of Petersfield. The hamlet has a fascinating history including the historic 16th-century public house, The Royal Oak. The well known West Dean Estate surrounds the hamlet, with direct access to the undulating hills and wooded valleys of the downs, with its diverse wildlife and historic monuments.
The village of Compton is nearby and offers a further very nice pub, village shop and post office. Petersfield is 8 miles distant, where there is a variety of shops, a farmers' market, a mainline railway station, with services to London (Waterloo) and the A3 which provides access to London, the coast, as well as to both Heathrow and Gatwick airports.
The cathedral city of Chichester offers a broad range of cultural, leisure and shopping facilities, including the historic cathedral, renowned Festival Theatre and Goodwood, with golf, horse racing, as well as the Festival of Speed and Revival motor racing events. Sailing is extremely popular from the many villages surrounding Chichester Harbour, with the famous south coast beaches such as West Wittering. Schools in the area include West Dean Primary, Compton and Up Marden Primary, Oakwood School, Bishop Luffa C of E, Churches and Seaford College.
