We are delighted to offer this stylish and contemporary three bedroom ground floor apartment featuring a private south facing garden terrace on the historic and stunning King Edward VII Estate near Midhurst West Sussex. The Nurses House is just 15 minutes south of Haslemere (London Waterloo 55 minutes) and close to the excellent amenities of Cowdray Park and Midhurst. The area’s natural beauty, walks and commutability to London makes this property an extremely attractive residential proposition. This beautifully finished apartment is located on the ground floor of the Nurses House which was lovingly refurbished by award winning developer City & Country and as such holds a unique distinction as it is part of a select few properties on the historic King Edward VII Estate near Midhurst. This adds a sense of character and history to the apartment, giving it a distinct identity within the overall estate. A pretty courtyard entrance is landscaped with box hedging, thoughtfully planted borders and leads to the apartment front door of no 14 The Nurses House. Entering into a hallway with high ceilings and engineered hard wood flooring one is immediately immersed in period charm from Edwardian style radiators and original tall sash windows. The spacious living/dining area is characterised by its generous size and features French double doors that lead out onto the south-facing patio, providing a seamless transition between the indoor and outdoor living areas. The high specification kitchen in this apartment was meticulously designed and installed, featuring luxurious stone worktops and elegant bespoke painted wooden cupboards. These cupboards provide ample storage for kitchen necessities while enhancing the room’s overall aesthetic appeal. Premium Siemens appliances, including a double oven, full-size dishwasher, and integrated fridge freezer, ensure functionality and efficiency. The central island offers additional workspace, storage, and a breakfast bar for casual dining or socialising. Large south-facing sash windows allow an abundance of natural light to fill the space, creating a bright and inviting atmosphere while offering views of the surrounding scenery and the exquisite historic chapel. The principal bedroom is of a very generous size and features beautifully crafted bespoke fitted wardrobes, high quality wool carpet and pretty garden views. There is a luxurious tiled en-suite bathroom with a rainfall shower, bath and large sash windows which give plenty of natural light. High ceilings create an airy and spacious atmosphere, while the large windows allow for views of the beautiful surroundings and contribute to a bright and inviting living area. The second bedroom is double in size, whilst bedroom three is a single. This single bedroom could alternatively provide a separate and dedicated space for work or study, ensuring a quiet and focused environment. Having a designated office space within the apartment is useful and convenient for professional, creative, and academic pursuits. Alternatively, if a dedicated office space is not required, the single bedroom can also be repurposed as a nursery, guest room, a hobby room, or a cozy reading nook. There is a second luxury tiled bathroom with walk in shower, chrome fittings and tall heated towel rail. The apartment has a utility area for washer/dryer machines and some shelving as well as an additional storage cupboard. The combination of modern living spaces and historical elements in this property creates a unique atmosphere that is both inviting and inspiring.
