House For Rent £2,000
Once part of the Woodend Estate, an attractive converted former stables set in this lovely downland location close to Chichester, Goodwood and the coast.
The house has two spacious reception rooms each with 10ft high corniced ceilings. The sitting room has an impressive open fireplace with raised stone flagged hearth and exposed brick chimney breast. Two sets of double casement doors open south onto a sheltered terrace and garden. The kitchen/breakfast room has a good range of matching units with black granite work surfaces, fitted appliances and breakfast area with doors opening onto the terrace. A separate utility keeps the white goods away from the main living areas.
Three bedrooms on the first floor include a generous principal bedroom suite with bathroom and dressing room. Two further bedrooms are served by a well-appointed shower room.
Outside
The house is approached by way of a private driveway leading to Woodend. To the south of the house is a detached brick built double garage providing secure parking with remote controlled up and over door, light and power. The easily maintained south facing gardens are laid mainly to lawn with well-established shrubs and borders. A sheltered terrace is approached by way of doors from both the sitting room and kitchen/breakfast room.
The downland village of West Stoke lies some 4 miles to the north west of Chichester. A particularly pretty hamlet, houses are seldom available here and are much sought after, surrounded as it is by some of the best countryside in the county and close to the famous walks through the ancient yew forest of Kingley Vale. From here walkers can reach the crest of the South Downs with panoramic views over the Sussex Weald. The surrounding countryside is home to many pretty villages and country pubs. An ideal place for walks, horse riding and mountain biking. The area is also well placed for access to the waters of Chichester Harbour with Bosham and its famous sailing club being only 4 miles distant. There are further sailing clubs at Itchenor and Chichester Marina, providing access to The Solent and some of the best sailing within convenient travelling distance of London. A few miles to the east lies the Goodwood Estate, already famous for its internationally known racecourse, but also playing host to the Festival of Speed and the Revival at its historic motor circuit which are now prominent events on the social calendar. Goodwood also has a private members club, The Kennels, and a country club providing tennis courts, golf courses, gym and indoor swimming pool. The airfield at Goodwood provides facilities for private aircraft.
The cathedral city of Chichester has a vibrant centre with a wide choice of shopping facilities, bars and restaurants. Pallant House Gallery houses one of the most important art collections in the south of England and Chichester Festival Theatre continues to attract large audiences providing a full and varied program of drama and concerts throughout the year. Mainline stations at both Chichester and Havant provide rail services to both London Victoria and Waterloo respectively.
