Washington Street, Chichester, West Sussex, PO19

*** NO ONWARD CHAIN *** Situated in this popular residential street, approximately 3 minutes walk from the top of North Street and the start of the city centre, an attractive Grade II listed cottage. The property, which is of brick and flint elevations, has recently been re-roofed, and offers 3-4 double bedroomed accommodation with an enclosed courtyard garden.


DESCRIPTION:

The front door opens to the hallway with original wood flooring, off which is the dining room (currently used as a bedroom) with feature fireplace, overlooking the front of the property. From the hallway, stairs lead to the first floor and a door leads to the sitting/dining room off which is the kitchen comprising a range of base and wall cupboards, inset stainless steel sink, integrated electric oven with ceramic hob over and space for appliances. A small lobby off the kitchen has a cupboard housing the gas boiler and a door to the rear courtyard. A door leads to the bathroom which comprises a modern suite with panelled bath with glazed screen and shower head over, low level WC and wash hand basin, chromium plated towel rail and fully tiled walls and floor.

From the sitting/dining room stairs lead down to the basement which, we understand from the vendor, has been tanked and ventilated and is currently used as a bedroom with feature alcove and window providing natural light. On the first floor are two double bedrooms. Bedroom one overlooks the front of the property and has a wooden floor, a feature fireplace with cast iron grate and cupboard to one side and a built-in wardrobe/cupboard. Bedroom two is also a generous sized double bedroom with wooden flooring, feature fireplace and cupboard to one side.
