A home of character in Idyllic South Mundham
Set amidst 1.43 acres of mature, park-like gardens, this charming residence combines timeless character of its Edwardian origins with thoughtful modern updates. Just four miles south of Chichester, it offers a rare balance of rural tranquillity and easy access to the city and coast.
From the moment you arrive, the long block-paved driveway creates a sense of approach, opening to a detached double garage and spacious workshops at the rear.
Inside, the home unfolds with a sense of warmth and versatility. The welcoming hallway sets the tone, leading to an elegant dining room where high ceilings and a feature fireplace hint at the property’s Edwardian origins. A bright dual-aspect study provides a perfect retreat for reading, working or quiet reflection, while two bedrooms in this wing offer comfortable family or guest accommodation.
At the heart of the home lies the kitchen breakfast room, a light-filled space refitted with classic shaker style cabinetry, Minerva worktops and quality appliances including a Neff double oven and AEG induction hob. For those who appreciate tradition, the oil-fired Stanley stove offers the pleasure of cooking in the old way while also serving the central heating. A handsome pine dresser in the breakfast area adds a touch of country charm.
Adjoining the kitchen are two interlinked sitting rooms, creating both intimacy and flow. The principal sitting room centres around a multifuel burner in a striking fireplace surround, a welcoming spot to gather on cooler evenings.
The principal suite enjoys its own private wing. A spacious, dual-aspect bedroom, a dedicated dressing room with wall-to-wall wardrobes and a large bathroom with a walk-in shower, designed for comfort and practicality.
Above, a vast boarded roof space with four Velux windows hints at further possibilities, whether for expansion, hobbies or storage.
Beyond the walls, the gardens truly define this home. With sweeping lawns, mature trees and colourful borders, they create a sense of peaceful seclusion while offering endless scope for outdoor living. Whether hosting summer gatherings, tending to the grounds or simply enjoying the wildlife that flourishes here, the setting is a constant source of delight.
