Description
Keycroft is a fine example of Georgian architecture in red brick over three storeys with its classic symmetrical form and fenestration including its panelled front door. The property is in need of a full programme of modernisation throughout.
Accessed via wrought iron gates into a tarmac driveway, the property has parking for a number of vehicles. The ground floor consists of an attractive entrance hall with oak flooring providing access to the drawing room and library to either side. Remaining within the footprint of the original house, the hall leads onto a garden room with conservatory beyond and a downstairs wc.
An alteration made during the 1930s, we believe, created a back hall that links the kitchen/breakfast room to the main house and enjoys views over the rear garden. Stairs lead from the entrance hall to the first floor comprising three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a separate wc.
Stairs from the charming first floor landing with its large sash window flooding it with light, lead to the second floor which features two bedrooms (one with its own adjoining study room and believed to have formed part of the 1930s alterations as was the rear first floor bathroom).
The property sits centrally within its plot and a combination of yew hedging and mature trees and shrubs create privacy around the boundaries of this well maintained garden which is mainly laid to lawn with the addition of some wonderful specimen trees. There is the addition of a charming granary with dovecote atop its roof, which could represent a workshop or outside office. To the rear of the granary is a single garage.
Location
Highleigh is a small and attractive village adjacent to the village of Sidlesham with its local Primary School and Montessori nursery. The area is rural in nature with the beautiful Nature Reserves of Medmerry and Pagham Harbour lying less than 3 miles beyond. West Wittering, with its sandy beaches, is popular with bathers and watersports enthusiasts being approximately 4.5 miles to the west. For sailors, Chichester marina and harbour are less than four miles away.

Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
