Situated off a semi-rural lane on the outskirts of this popular West Sussex village, an impressive and incredibly spacious detached home (2,943 sq ft approx) with west facing gardens of approximately 0.6 acres just outside of the South Downs National Park.

With just under 3,000 sq ft of beautifully presented accommodation across two floors, this particularly spacious and light family home offers flexible and contemporary living within a semi-rural setting. Notable additions include a large open plan and fully fitted kitchen/reception/dining room, which in our opinion is ideal for entertaining, with feature wood burner towards one end, and west facing bi-fold doors opening onto the garden at the other. A further addition includes a ground floor sixth double bedroom (en suite,), currently arranged as a gym. The property is largely decorated with a Farrow and Ball palette and provides Porcelanosa bathroom fittings. Downfields is situated in a semi-rural location with easy access to Chichester, some 7 miles distant, Barnham mainline rail station lies just under 4 miles to the south east, and the South Downs National Park, including the stunning National Trust owned Slindon Common, to the north.

As you enter on the ground floor there is a grand entrance hall which leads to both a formal sitting room and a study/playroom opposite. Further into the property there is a cloakroom, plant room and a utility room. To the rear is the superb open plan kitchen, with central island, and the ground floor double bedroom. On the first floor, a particular feature is the approximate 40' central landing, framed by a Juliet balcony at the western end. Accessed from the landing there are five double bedrooms (two en-suite) and a modern family bathroom. A further study completes the first floor.

A further feature includes the garden and grounds, which extend to just over half an acre. Wrapping around the property there are large areas laid to lawn, interspersed by shrubs and plants, with mature trees towards the rear. Immediately outside the property there is an area laid to decking, ideal for al fresco dining. The property is approached via a good sized gravel driveway, allowing for ample off street parking. To the side of the property there is a garage.

The property is situated within a semi rural location on the outskirts of Eastergate, some 7 miles east of central Chichester. The area has a very good choice of schools and the village itself has an excellent range of local amenities which include a convenience store, post office, doctors surgery and petrol station. Stunning rural walks are easily accessible from the property. The village of Barnham lies a short distance away and has an active village hall, a number of small shops and a mainline station which serves Gatwick Airport, London (Victoria), Portsmouth and Brighton. Sports and leisure facilities are well catered for in the area and include racing at both Fontwell and Goodwood and golf at Ham Manor, Angmering and Goodwood. The renowned South Downs National Park lies a short drive to the north and sailing is possible from Chichester and Littlehampton harbours. Drama and music productions can be enjoyed at Chichester's famous Festival Theatre with the city also offering a wide variety of shops, bars and restaurants.
