West Lavant, Chichester, West Sussex, PO18

Little Oldwick Barn has been extensively remodelled, modernised and updated by our clients during their ownership. The property now presents as one of the finest houses in prime West Sussex, with attention to detail, quality of fittings and thought of purpose evident throughout.

The main atrium space is cleverly divided by the positioning of the furniture to provide the most stunning entertaining and living space, with a sitting room area and large wood-burning stove in a bespoke fireplace to the west end, while to the east end is a stunning glass-walled temperature and humidity-controlled wine cellar.

The kitchen/breakfast room is also an exceptional highlight of the property with the kitchen, by Chalon kitchens, featuring handmade units and an electric four oven aga with two-oven electric companion module, a large pantry and Sub-Zero fridge freezer.

The ground floor of the Barn benefits from hardwearing stone floors with the entire building, both ground and first floors, benefiting from underfloor heating.

Upstairs, the principal suite occupies the east side of the building to benefit from the morning sun, while two guest suites and study space are to the western side, accessed via the floating mezzanine level.

Outside, Little Oldwick Barn is accessed via timber electric gates and a stunning gravel driveway winding through the formal gardens to the front of the house. Here a turning area provides parking for numerous cars and gives access to the garaging and machinery store, and further to the main house itself.

A stunning section of the grounds in its own right is the natural swimming pond with a thatched summer house and hardwood deck, making for a real oasis year-round for natural swimming.

In the midst of the front lawns is the beautiful old shepherd's hut, providing a charming additional space for hobbies, working or extra accommodation if required.

Every effort has been made to make the property maintenance as simple and future-proof as possible. With an EPC rating of A, Little Oldwick Barn benefits from three-phase electricity, solar panels, two bore holes with two holding tanks and the outside of the property is fully irrigated and lit.

The care, effort and attention to detail lavished on the gardens and grounds during our clients' ownership is evident on approach. Extensive planting of now stunning trees is complimented by lush formal lawns with the entire property being irrigated. To the east of the Barn is the stunning Italian garden and orchard, while to the south is a beautiful, sheltered courtyard with a bespoke outdoor fireplace, pizza oven and built in barbecue/kitchen with this space easily accessed from both the kitchen/breakfast room from large bi-fold doors and also the main entertaining space in the Barn.
