House For Sale £795,000
Melbourne Road, Chichester, West Sussex, PO19

A superbly realised and cleverly designed four-bedroom detached house, in our opinion impressively finished
to a high standard and situated close to the historic city centre of Chichester (distance 0.7 miles by foot).

Capturing contemporary living and providing thoughtfully laid out accommodation, this newly built detached house is arranged over three floors and incorporates a number of key features that
will resonate upon viewing.

The ‘hub’ of the house is without doubt the superbly appointed kitchen/dining room. Extending to 27’11 x 22’ this impressive space incorporates a comprehensively fitted kitchen with quartz work tops and integrated appliances. There is a kitchen island with breakfast seating, an additional dining area and a social/sitting room space. There is a wonderful connection to the rear garden in the form of bi fold doors which combined with a roof lantern ensures the whole is flooded with natural light. The kitchen is complimented by a utility room with access to the outside.

In addition, the ground floor provides a sitting room with wide bay window enjoying an aspect to the front, while the entrance hall provides access to a cloakroom and stairs to the first floor. The first floor is well thought out with a spacious landing and hosts three bedrooms and a family bathroom. The largest bedroom is equipped with an en suite, whilst two of the bedrooms enjoy a garden aspect. The second floor is given over to a most impressive principal suite with spacious en suite incorporating both bath and shower.

Outside, the rear garden is attractively landscaped with an extensive sandstone terrace giving way to an expanse of lawn with borders harbouring maturing flowers and shrubs. The rear garden also hosts a home office which could be purposed as a studio annex as it has an electrical supply with water and drainage currently capped off and ready for connection.

Parking in Melbourne Road is readily available via residents permit whilst it should be noted that the owners are currently processing a planning application to provide an off street parking space with an electric car charging point.
