House For Sale £925,000
Situated within glorious south facing grounds with views across the Lavant valley, Glebeside is a detached home filled with superb natural light, and is located adjacent to the church in the heart of this hugely sought after downland village.
Glebeside enjoys a superb semi-rural position with idyllic wraparound gardens and stunning outlook. Accommodation is arranged over a single floor, with superb panoramic views along the length and width of the valley and Goodwood estate. Upon entering via an entrance porch there is a central hallway which to one side opens through to a lovely sitting room, featuring exposed wooden flooring and a fireplace, with bi-fold doors opening onto a south facing patio. From the other side of the living room a further set of internal bi-fold doors opens through to dining room. This follows through to a functional kitchen with ample storage space. To the rear of the property there is a utility room and a larder. From the other side of the central hallway there are three double bedrooms (all with built in storage), one of which could form a substantial dressing room/study. This room enjoys a set of sliding doors opening onto the eastern side of the property and garden. Completing the accommodation there is a bathroom and a cloakroom.
Of note is that the property provides historic planning consent (SDNP/14/05026/HOUS), now lapsed, to convert the existing loft space to form a further two double bedrooms, both of which would be en suite. The proposed ground floor accommodation would include a substantial open plan entertaining space incorporating a kitchen, dining and family living room. There would be a further formal sitting room, two bedrooms (one en suite), bathroom, cloakroom, vestibule and a separate boot room; all ideally suited, in our opinion, for a family or those looking to downsize.
The gardens and outlook are a particular feature. The property sits centrally within grounds of just over a third of an acre. There are large expanses laid to lawn with a good variety of well maintained and flowering shrubs, plants and mature trees within the borders.
The property is approached on a driveway, allowing off street parking for several vehicles, and access to a detached and double length garage.
Glebefield occupies a superb and elevated position next to the church in the heart of the highly regarded South Downs village of East Dean, some 7 miles to the north of Chichester, close to Goodwood, and with far-reaching country views over the Goodwood estate. The village has an excellent public house (Star & Garter), well known for good food and hospitality and Singleton to the west has a primary school, as well as being home to the Weald and Downland Museum. A further popular primary school, along with local shopping facilities, may be found at West Dean.
The Cathedral city of Chichester offers an excellent range of shopping and cultural amenities, including the renowned Festival Theatre, galleries, museums and restaurants. A mainline railway station at Chichester offers services to London (Victoria and Gatwick), whilst Haslemere to the north provides a faster service to London (Waterloo). Leisure pursuits within the area include polo from Cowdray Park, horse racing and the annual Festival of Speed and Revival Meetings at Goodwood, golf and tennis. Sailing may be enjoyed from the many centres around Chichester Harbour and both kite and windsurfing from the well-known beaches at West Wittering.
