Southover is a substantial country house located in a superb private, rural location at the end of a private lane and with stunning, far reaching rural views towards the South Downs. The property is believed to have been built in 1936 and has attractive elevations and spacious accommodation extending to about 4,607 sq. ft arranged over three floors, with well-proportioned rooms and good ceiling heights. The property has been extensively refurbished in recent years, is immaculately presented and includes many period features such as wood floors, open fireplaces, a superb fitted kitchen with 4 oven Aga, well fitted bathrooms and metal framed, sealed unit, double glazed windows. The approach is over a private lane which leads to a large gravel entrance drive which has extensive garaging to one side. The house is set well within delightful, mature gardens and grounds, with an adjoining paddock and has far reaching rural views over the adjoining farmland and on the South Downs in the distance. In all the property extends to about 4.12 acres.
In 2004 planning consent was granted to extend the house to create additional bedrooms (work which was carried out) and also to build an indoor swimming pool complex and hard tennis court, which were not built but for which consent still exists (Chichester District Council Ref: PW/04/00667/DOM). Further information, including plans, are available upon request.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
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
