Maltravers Street, Arundel, BN18

This delightful double-fronted house occupies a prominent position on Maltravers Street in the heart of Arundel and has a beautiful large sundial on the exterior wall above the front door. The home combines architectural elegance with modern comfort. The bright interiors showcase high ceilings with exposed beams, alongside authentic details such as coving, original fireplaces – most fitted with gas coal-effect fires – and attractive sash windows that flood the rooms with natural light. There is a self containing guest apartment downstairs. The upstairs rooms have views of the countryside. The property enjoys its own private garden on three levels with views of the cathedral and the castle.

The home is accessed via a handsome front entrance with a Georgian doorway leading into the first of the reception rooms, with a large fireplace and stairs to the first floor. To the left lies an elegant Kitchen/Dining Room, with a Rangemaster Toledo range and another fireplace. The hallway in the middle of the house has been cleverly reconfigured to include a useful cloakroom and storage area, making good use of the generous space whilst maintaining the home’s gracious proportions.
A separate self contained flat to the rear of the property provides a reception room, bedroom, bathroom and kitchenette.
Upstairs, both bedrooms are en suite, one with a corner bath. More stairs lead to a spacious sitting room which provides a delightful space for entertaining and relaxation, with exposed roof beams and a Juliet balcony overlooking the gardens. Another beautiful reception room, currently used as a study, has double-glazed French Windows leading out on the sun terrace.
