4 bedroom detached house for sale

Constructed in 2016 in the style of a traditional Sussex barn and making extensive use of natural oak timbers, this stunning architecturally designed property commands views over a gorgeous mill pond.

Millstream House is a most attractive detached property, beautifully conceived and enjoying a mature and stunning outlook over a mill pond, whilst a pretty freshwater stream runs along one side.

Architecturally designed, the property provides well thought out and versatile accommodation which benefits from a number of deft design touches and zoned underfloor heating throughout the ground floor. Clever use is made of full height windows to allow plenty of light into key rooms including the sitting room and guest bedroom. Exposed oak timbers are evident throughout and serve to ensure the Sussex Barn design flows from the exterior to the interior of this impressive home. The sitting room enjoys a dual aspect with a wood burning stove focal point. The kitchen/dining room is arranged with an aspect of, and a connection to, the rear garden. The kitchen itself is comprehensively fitted with a combination of shaker style and hi–gloss units, finished with solid oak work tops. There is an adjacent utility room to the kitchen and this pivots to give access to the delightful garden room. Concluding the ground floor accommodation is a study of good size, a bedroom and a shower room.

Upstairs a light and spacious landing gives access to the generous principal bedroom which benefits from a dual aspect over the garden to the rear and the mill pond to the front, plus an en suite shower room. There are two further bedrooms, the guest room having a glorious view of the mill pond via a large picture window and finally a family bathroom.

The rear garden features a paved terrace, accessed from the kitchen/dining room, which extends to well-maintained flowerbeds and lawn enclosed on two sides by mature hedging. A further paved terrace can be found at the end of the garden. To the front of the property an extensive gravel driveway provides off road parking for several vehicles, which compliments the detached garage.

The property is positioned in a semi-rural and peaceful location within the popular village of Fishbourne, overlooking the mill pond and close to both the harbour and Fishbourne Meadows. Fishbourne itself lies some 3 miles to the west of the Cathedral City of Chichester, and is famous for its Roman Palace. The local amenities include playing fields with community centre with a bowling club, tennis courts, village club with bar, cricket pitch, croquet club, children's play area and pre school. In addition, there is a village primary school, two good public houses, a railway halt and regular bus links to outlying areas, whilst having easy access to the A27 trunk road and nearby Tesco superstore and Waitrose. A couple miles to the south west is the highly regarded sailing village of Bosham.

The historic Cathedral City of Chichester offers a broader range of shopping, cultural and leisure facilities including the renowned Festival Theatre, Pallant House Galley, museums and restaurants. Aside from sailing, leisure facilities within the area include golf at Goodwood, bathing from the beaches off West Wittering and the National Trust owned East Head, horse riding, and walking around the harbour and South Downs. Horseracing may also be enjoyed at Goodwood where the annual Festival of Speed, and Revival meetings are also hosted.
