A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial detached house, with a gorgeous walled garden, in need of renovation, in the heart of this well regarded village, located to the East of Chichester.

Full Description

With a generous footprint, extending to in excess of 2,900 sq ft (to include the garage), 'Saxons' represents an exciting prospect for renovation and perhaps reconfiguration, in a sought-after village environment, close to Goodwood at the foot of the South Downs.

The property enjoys a secluded frontage, with a brick built retaining wall with mature shrubs also, with driveway parking for a number of vehicles. In addition, there is an integral double garage. Once inside the property, a spacious reception hall guides you into the kitchen/breakfast room. This spacious room enjoys a lovely view of the garden and located off is a utility room. The sitting room is a well-proportioned dual aspect space with three sets of glazed doors overlooking and connecting to the garden. Additional reception room space in form of a study/bedroom and a dining room/snug round out the downstairs accommodation, along with a shower room.

The first-floor accommodation is divided into two wings, with the main bedroom accessed via its own stairwell, with a dressing area, en suite bathroom and a extensive storage area lit by a skylight. In additional there are two further bedroom en suites, both with built in wardrobes and enjoying a lovely view of the garden.

The rear garden is a superb feature of 'Saxons'. There is an paved terrace that runs nearly the entire width of the property. The terrace gives way to an large expanse of lawn, secluded by mature trees and shrubs, all enclosed by a garden wall giving an excellent level of privacy.

The property is located at the heart of the popular village of Boxgrove, close to the historic 12th century Boxgrove Priory and church. The village has a local shop, primary school and village hall. There is a popular public house situated in the village of Halnaker, approximately 0.5 miles away. The Goodwood Estate, situated just to the north of Boxgrove, famously provides horse racing events and motoring festivals. Goodwood also has a golf club and health club, including a gym and swimming pool. The historic cathedral city of Chichester is approx. 4 miles away, and offers a wide range of shops and restaurants, as well as the internationally renowned Chichester Festival Theatre and Pallant House Gallery.

Communications are excellent with a mainline station providing a regular service to London Victoria in about 1 hour 40 minutes, and Havant station provides a faster service to London Waterloo in about 1 hour 20 minutes. The A27 trunk road provides access to Worthing and Brighton to the east and Portsmouth, Havant and Southampton to the West.
