THE PROPERTY
Church House is a most attractive period home boasting substantial accommodation of nearly 4,000 sq ft and stands within picturesque gardens next to the medieval Church of The Holy Innocents and enjoys a wonderful private setting. Built in the early 1800s by the Bunbury estate, this impressive unlisted house presents brick, flint and plain lime-rendered elevations under pantile and slate roofs with barley twist chimneys and further charming original period detail. Extensively remodelled, including upgraded insulation and double glazing, it was extended in 1998 by Purcell Miller Tritton architects, it has generously proportioned accommodation throughout, which is principally arranged over two floors with a large cellar.

The entrance porch leads into a reception hall, which has windows to the front aspect, oak floorboards and an open fireplace with marble surround and leads into the inner hall, which also has oak floor boards and features the stairs to the first floor with a cupboard under. The dual aspect dining room has an open fireplace with marble surround and the large drawing room features dual windows to double aspects and has a marble fireplace with an open Jetmaster fire. The most impressive kitchen/breakfast/family room measures 34’ x 17’ and is fitted with a bespoke Andrew Bannister kitchen comprising a comprehensive range of base and eye level units with a combination of granite and solid wood worksurfaces and integrated appliances include a dishwasher, fridge and a Britannia gas range oven. There are oak floorboards throughout and the family area has a rear and side aspect and double doors lead onto the terrace and garden. The side hall leads into a utility room fitted with a range and base and eye level units, single drainer sink, plumbing for automatic appliances and houses the Vaillant gas boiler. Access is gained to the extensive cellar, consisting of two rooms and a further vault. Continuing on the ground floor there is a study, which could be used as another bedroom, and a cloakroom. On the first floor the half galleried landing leads to five double bedrooms with the majority enjoying built-in or fitted wardrobes and the master bedroom has a dressing area and en-suite ‘Jack and Jill’ Goodwood bathroom shared with the adjoining bedroom and two further Goodwood bathrooms, all with Lefroy Brookes taps. The whole first floor enjoys beautiful views over the garden and surrounding countryside.
