Westgate, Chichester, West Sussex, PO19

A most impressive Grade II listed townhouse, within striking distance of the city centre and having a south facing courtyard garden.

This extremely well presented townhouse offers flexible accommodation, whilst being only a short stroll from Chichester City centre and Bishops Palace Gardens.

The ground floor has been reconfigured by the current vendor to provide a double bedroom featuring two built in wardrobes and double doors which open to an inner lobby and shower room to provide en suite facilities. The bright, well equipped kitchen has a range of integrated appliances and plenty of streamlined storage, extending to the breakfast/dining area where a large bay window overlooks the pretty south facing courtyard garden.

Stairs from the hallway turn and lead up to the first floor study/snug. This room opens into the delightful sitting room which benefits from a fireplace with marble surround, two alcove recesses and a large picture window, allowing plenty of light to flood the room.

From this landing stairs rise to the second floor, where you will find a further double bedroom fitted with built in wardrobes to one side. The bathroom (with bath and shower over) serves as an ensuite.

The delightful courtyard garden enjoys a southerly aspect, having composite wooden decking with steps up to a stone paved entertaining terrace, bordered by raised flower/beds and trellising. The garden is enclosed by attractive brick & flint walling and offers a good degree of privacy, with access gained via a glazed door from either the dining area or ground floor shower room.
