About this property

A beautiful early 19th-century Grade II Listed cottage, presenting a striking exterior of flint and red brick. Shared with its attached neighbour, the property perfectly balances its historic charm with tasteful, modern styling. Ideally positioned on St. Paul’s Road, it sits just a short distance from the northern city walls, with resident permit parking available in marked bays nearby.

The interior retains significant original character, beginning with an inviting hallway featuring ceramic floor tiles. The ground floor includes a characterful sitting room with an open fireplace, solid wood flooring, and custom-built alcove cupboards. The dining room features elegant fitted bookshelves, while the bespoke, farmhouse-style kitchen is well-equipped with integrated appliances, including a dishwasher and washing machine. The kitchen also boasts a Butler sink, Italian marble work surfaces, a fitted dresser, and a gas-fired Rayburn, which efficiently provides cooking, hot water, and central heating via radiators, all three functioning independently. A useful under-stairs cupboard offers additional storage space.
The family bathroom is located on the ground floor, with classic chequerboard floor tiles, an airing cupboard, a roll-top bathtub with a shower attachment, and a traditional column radiator with an integrated towel rail. Upstairs, there are two well-presented double bedrooms. The principal bedroom, located towards the front, enjoys the benefit of an en-suite cloakroom. Throughout the cottage, all windows are secondary glazed, and the internal aesthetic is completed by solid wood, Sussex-latch doors.

Outside
The property offers a generous, walled garden that provides a wonderful sense of seclusion. The space is landscaped with gravel and brick pathways, established shrub borders, and flowering perennials. The garden features a lawn punctuated by a laurel hedge, a large crabapple tree, and flowering cherry and apple trees. There are various seating areas, including a south-facing paved sun terrace that serves the charming, timber-framed summerhouse—an idyllic spot for relaxation.

Situation
The property is conveniently situated just a short walk from the centre of Chichester.

The city offers a wide variety of shopping and leisure facilities including the renowned Festival Theatre, ancient Cathedral, restaurants, galleries and museums.
