Appledram Lane South, Chichester, West Sussex

Church Farm is a picturesque period residence featuring striking flint and brick elevations, characteristic of the local Sussex vernacular. The property combines traditional character with comfortable modern living, offering a wonderful rural lifestyle complemented by a range of ancillary buildings and over 1,200 sq ft of accommodation.

The ground floor is centred around two inviting reception rooms. The generous sitting room features a substantial brick-built fireplace with a wood-burning stove and doors opening directly to the gardens, while the separate dining room provides an elegant space for entertaining, complete with a handsome original fireplace. The updated kitchen is both practical and attractive, featuring tiled flooring and a range of fitted cabinetry, with direct access to the garden.

On the first floor are four bedrooms. The principal bedroom is a bright and well-proportioned space with a modern en suite shower room and dressing area. Three further bedrooms, one currently used as a home office, are served by a well-appointed family bathroom.

The property sits within generous wrap-around gardens of approximately half an acre, predominantly laid to lawn and enjoying a high degree of privacy. Mature trees, colourful borders and a productive vegetable garden with raised beds enhance the setting. A private driveway provides ample parking and leads to an impressive collection of outbuildings, including a detached laundry and store building, a double garage with a granary above, and a substantial stable barn. Extending to more than 1,100 sq ft, the single storey barn offers exceptional flexibility for workshop space or potential conversion, subject to the necessary consents.

Church Farm enjoys a sought-after semi-rural setting in Apuldram, on the south-western edge of Chichester, surrounded by attractive countryside and close to the scenic waters of Chichester Harbour National Landscape. The historic cathedral city of Chichester provides a wide range of shopping, leisure, and cultural amenities, including supermarkets, restaurants, cafés, and the renowned Festival Theatre, while the coastal villages of Bosham, Itchenor, and the Witterings are all within easy reach. Chichester Marina and Dell Quay Sailing Club are close by for watersports enthusiasts as well as a popular waterside pub. Portsmouth offers further facilities, and the South Downs National Park lies to the north.

Education is well served, with highly regarded independent schools nearby, including The Prebendal School, Westbourne House School, and Great Ballard School, alongside Oakwood School.

Transport connections are excellent, with rail services from Chichester to London Victoria and Gatwick Airport, and the A27 providing links to Portsmouth, Brighton, and the wider motorway network via the A3(M) and M27.
