Westergate Street, Westergate, Chichester, West Sussex, PO20

An impressive and recently renovated detached property, occupying a corner position, with a superb private garden and the benefit of a garage and driveway parking.

About the property

Presented to a very high standard throughout, The Croft has undergone a considerable renovation and upgrade by the current owners, resulting in a well-appointed, comfortable, turnkey home, with thoughtfully arranged accommodation over two floors.

Approached via a pathway and wooden gate, an entrance porch opens into a welcoming reception hall with herringbone flooring extending across the ground floor. An almost square, dual-aspect sitting room features a focal-point fireplace housing a log burner, and across the hallway—also enjoying a bright dual aspect—is a dining room. The spacious kitchen/breakfast room is comprehensively fitted in an appealing design, with built-in oven and hob, space for key appliances, and a breakfast peninsula. Off the kitchen is a useful utility space with a garden door. Toward the rear is a TV snug, which could serve as an office, playroom or a fourth bedroom, while a cloakroom completes the ground floor. Upstairs, off a spacious landing, are three double bedrooms, two enjoying a garden view, with the main bedroom equipped with a bank of built-in wardrobes. The bedrooms are served by a contemporary four-piece family bathroom.

The Croft enjoys a corner position and, while the garden wraps around the house, the majority lies to the rear, where a sandstone patio offers space for entertaining, alongside an expanse of law, all enclosed by panel fencing. A garage is located to the rear with a garden door and there is off-street parking for 2–3 vehicles.
