St. Martins Square, Chichester, PO19

A superbly presented Georgian Grade II listed house which has been substantially renovated to a high standard throughout, having the benefit of a South facing courtyard garden and private parking for two cars. Set within the City walls with views across Priory Park.
The entrance and sun room flow naturally into the dining area which in turn is ideally located adjacent to the high quality kitchen, with all appliances fully integrated. The study is a cosy area lined with book shelves and sits a little way from the dining area but still maintains the open plan feel. Located off a passageway is the downstairs cloakroom, whilst a hand etched glass pocket door at the end leads directly into the comfortable and entirely separate sitting room. This room features the superb focal point of a cast iron hob grate and marble fire surround. The sitting room has been extended at the southern end to create an additional seating area/study area and easy access to the courtyard garden through double French style doors.
The first floor landing is approached via a staircase with a bespoke handrail. The principal double bedroom provides a dual aspect with unrivalled views across Priory Park whilst the second double bedroom looks south over the garden and across to the old rooftops of St Mary’s. Both bedrooms are equipped with high quality fitted wardrobes. The modern bathroom also benefits from a Park view and is luxuriously equipped with a double ceramic basin with drawers under. It has a ‘Bette’ double ended steel bath and a separate walk in ‘Mira’ shower with an ‘Aqualisa’ digital fitting ensuring an invigorating water flow and a wall hung WC. There is a large loft, easily accessed by a flush fitted hinged hatch in the landing ceiling incorporating a pull-down wooden ladder.

Outside

The house itself is approached via tall wrought iron gates directly off the quiet cul-de-sac of St Martin’s Square, leading into an attractive gravelled and mature planted courtyard, also providing exclusive off road parking for two vehicles. This courtyard in turn affords direct access to the house itself, which is set well back from the street and approached through a latched wooden gate, passing through the secluded walled garden to the house entrance. In the garden is also a brick built outhouse with a pitched roof (approx. 9 x 5 feet) providing plenty of further storage space with power and light.

Situation

A rare opportunity to acquire an immaculate Grade II * Listed ‘mews style’ house of Georgian origin within the City Walls and dating from 1725. Located in one of the most sought after parts of Chichester, the house is set in the heart of the City’s quiet residential quarter. It overlooks Priory Park to the north (the City’s ‘hidden gem’) enjoying stunning views across the Park lawns to the wonderfully preserved 12th Century Guildhall bounded by the old City walls in clear view beyond. All of the considerable cultural, shopping and restaurant facilities for which Chichester is so well known are to hand and within a few minutes walking distance of the house.
