Description

A charming detached 3/4 bedroom property, in a peaceful setting with the most magical south facing gardens extending to just over one and half acres in all. No ongoing chain.

DESCRIPTION
Wood Avens is a charming detached property, thought to have been built in the 1980’s, which has been in the same ownership for over 25 years. The house has a traditional appearance with red multi facing brickwork and plain tiled roof and has been very well maintained in that time and is now presented in very good order, with double glazing throughout. The accommodation is spacious and very flexible with the ability to have ground floor living and still have good reception space. The main entrance hall gives access to the principal rooms with the good size sitting room off to the right, a dual aspect room with a wood burning stove and French doors out on to the garden, and a door to the dining room. Also off the entrance hall is a large bedroom with fitted wardrobes, a study/bedroom 4, also with fitted wardrobes and a family bathroom. Another door off the hallway leads into the well fitted kitchen/breakfast room which overlooks the rear garden. A rear door give access to the pretty conservatory which has a small wood burning stove and a handy space that currently houses a large chest freezer. Off the conservatory is the downstairs shower room and utility room beyond. French doors lead from the conservatory out on to the rear paved terracing.

Upstairs there are two further double bedrooms and a shower room.

Outside the house is approached over a private gravel entrance drive which provides ample parking, and access to the open bay double garage and garden store, to one side is a double cordon of mixed fruit trees, with pears, plums and apples. The gardens are a particular feature of the property, with a large terraced area with mixed gravel and paving slabs to the rear and a small orchard with mature apple trees to one side. The gardens to the immediate front of the property are mostly laid to lawn with borders and an abundance of mature shrubs and trees, leading to a boules court and mixed woodland beyond. The woodland is interspersed with paths and cleared areas and there is a large garden shed with further storage, a wood shed and a further small shed and a small greenhouse.

SITUATION
Wood Avens is located in a country lane approximately 1.5 miles from the historic market town of Midhurst. The town has immense character and charm and offers a good range of shops, restaurants and other amenities. A more extensive range of shopping, leisure and cultural facilities may be found at Chichester (16 miles) and Guildford (22 miles). Haslemere (7 miles), has a mainline station offering a frequent and regular train service to London Waterloo, with journey times ranging from 50 minutes. There is a wide choice of both independent and state schools in the area. Sporting facilities available locally include polo at Cowdray Park, horse racing and the renowned Festival of Speed and the Revival meeting at Goodwood. Golf at Cowdray Park Golf Club and also the West Sussex Golf Club at Pulborough. Chichester harbour is approximately 25 miles away, with the area providing many opportunities for the water sports enthusiast. The house is surrounded by undulating countryside, much of which is owned by the National Trust providing wonderful opportunities for recreational pursuits, including walking, riding and cycling.
