The Property
Ariel Cottage is a rare opportunity to acquire a charming six bedroom cottage, idyllically positioned within the popular Downland village of Graffham with village shop, two public houses, a church and primary school. The property has been in the same family for more than 55 years and is now in need of full renovations, offering the new owners the chance to improve and extend a wonderful home (subject to the usual planning consents) in a superb village and on a delightful plot of approximately 0.7 acres. The property has brick and stone elevations with clay tiled roof and currently comprises a kitchen/breakfast room, three reception rooms, utility and cloakroom on the ground floor, and on the first floor are six bedrooms and three bathrooms. There is a substantial loft space, which could also be further utilised. The property is positioned centrally within its plot and enjoys peaceful views over surrounding fields and up onto the Downs.
Gardens and Grounds
The pretty and mature gardens are mainly laid to lawn, interspersed with mature flower beds and extends to 0.7 acres. There is a small spring fed stream and pond, a pool with pool house as well as a three bay brick built garage and parking for several cars. A small bridge leads from the parking area to the front door, making an unusual and welcoming approach.
The Location
Graffham is a sought after village, situated at the foot of the South Downs. The village has two pubs, a village hall, recreational grounds, church and a community shop and café. There is a highly regarded primary school which is part of the Forest Schools initiative and has been rated ‘outstanding’ by Ofsted. Seaford College is also very close by. The area has many footpaths and bridleways on and around the South Downs for walking and riding.
The towns of Midhurst and Petworth are close by and provide for most everyday needs, whilst Guildford in Surrey and the
Cathedral city of Chichester, both with renowned Theatres, are within easy reach and have more extensive shopping and leisure facilities. The A3 provides fast access to London, the motorway network, Gatwick, Heathrow and Southampton airports, whilst the mainline station at Haslemere provides a fast service to London Waterloo.
Midhurst and the surrounding area have much to offer with Polo at Cowdray Park, racing at Goodwood and Fontwell, golf at Cowdray Park, Goodwood, Pulborough and Liphook, motor racing at the Goodwood circuit and sailing out of Chichester Harbour and other centres along the South Coast. There are many footpaths and bridleways in the area for walking and riding.
