4 bedroom detached house for sale

SITUATION:
The property is situated on the northern fringe of Petworth, just half a mile and 15 minutes walk from the town centre and within 500m of the entrance to Petworth Park. The historic market town of Petworth lies at the heart of the South Downs National Park and is perhaps best known for the National Trust owned Petworth House with its beautiful 750 acre parkland. The town also benefits from a regular farmers market, first class deli and shops catering for most everyday needs. There are annual Petworth music and literary festivals and a range of vibrant activities, clubs and societies. Sporting activities include golf at Cowdray Park and horse and motor racing at Goodwood. More comprehensive shopping facilities, including major supermarkets, can be found in Chichester (12 miles) as well as the renowned Festival Theatre. Communications with London are surprisingly easy with mainline stations at Haslemere (12 miles, Waterloo 60 minutes) and Pulborough (4 miles, Victoria 70 minutes). The A3 (M) is within a 17 mile drive.
