4 bed detached house for sale

St. Pauls Road, Chichester, West Sussex PO19

Located just a short walk from the top of North Street, a surprisingly spacious and individual 3/4 bedroom attached period house with charming south-westerly garden and excellent potential to reconfigure into a more practical 4 bedroom, 4 bathroom, family home.

Description:

An exciting opportunity to acquire a very spacious and interesting former mixed-use attached period property with excellent potential to reconfigure into a nicely balanced 4 double bedrooms, 4-bathroom, family home through lapsed planning consent (Ref. 19/00638/ful).

The property is understood to have been formerly used as public house, cycle shop and a hairdresser, and is now used solely as a residential property, being owner occupied and offering approx. 2,743 sq. Ft of characterful, well presented, and versatile accommodation.

The two rooms to the front of the house, which have previously had commercial use, have a kitchen, bathroom and 2 bedrooms above which could make a useful self-contained apartment ideal for multi-generational living. Alternatively, this part of the building could be incorporated into the main house which has a large sitting room overlooking the garden, a separate dining hall, kitchen, shower room, family room/bedroom 4, bedroom 3 on the ground floor and a large cellar with bathroom, accessed via 2 staircases.

Outside the property benefits from a charming, secluded and good sized south-westerly rear garden with extensive patio area, well stocked mature flower borders and a selection of fruit trees. To the side of the house is a useful enclosed courtyard with a pedestrian gate providing access on to St. Paul’s Road.
