DESCRIPTION:

Conveniently situated at the northern end of the popular village of Fishbourne and only about 2 miles to the west of Chichester city centre, 139 Salthill Road is an exceptional 4 bedroom semi-detached family house set in a nicely enclosed corner plot. Understood to have been built in 2016 by a local carpentry and building company, but then acquired by the current owner in 2018, the property offers very spacious and beautifully presented accommodation (approx. 2154 sq. ft inc. studio) arranged over three floors. On the ground floor, features to note include a welcoming entrance hall with WC and useful boot room/store, a side entrance leading to a utility room, and an approx. 23ft long sitting/dining room with wide opening at one end leading to an impressive and light open-plan kitchen/breakfast/family room with attractive fitted gas fire to the family area, a contemporary style kitchen including integrated appliances and a substantial island unit, and bi-fold doors to the near full width of the house opening to a west facing courtyard garden to the rear. On the first floor, there are 3 generously sized bedrooms (one with an excellent range of built-in storage), and a stylish family bathroom with freestanding bath and large separate walk-in shower. The principal bedroom is positioned on the top floor with an en-suite bathroom.

Outside, the property can be approached off Clay Lane to the side leading to a private driveway providing parking for several cars. Double timber gates and a pedestrian gate lead from the drive to a lovely west facing paved courtyard to the rear of the house with a feature detached ‘cottage style’ outbuilding with bathroom facilities, which is currently used as a charming studio annexe. A matching paved path and landscaped side garden with small greenhouse lead to the front of the property which features a large oak framed canopy porch over the front door. The front garden is mainly laid to lawn with flower and shrub beds, a few trees and a timber shed. The property is nicely enclosed with tall timber fencing providing a fair level of privacy.
