4 bedroom equestrian facility for sale

An immaculately presented and renovated Georgian country home in one of the most popular villages in the South Downs National Park.

Originating from the 18th century the house has been modernising and extended over the years to a particularly high standard and provides excellent and well-balanced accommodation including outstanding open plan and living/kitchen.

The grounds include manicured front and back gardens mostly south facing, with well tendered raised beds for garden produce, and with a range of outbuildings including a double car port with adjacent gym, and stable block with 3 loose boxes, feed store, tack room, and garage/machinery store. From here there is a 5-bar gate leading to a well-fenced and drained paddock of 1.8 acres, with a total land area of 2.56 acres.

The outstanding kitchen/living area has double opening French doors leading to a very pretty Yorkstone terrace leading in turn to a fabulous alfresco dining area. There are lovely farmland views as far as Funtington Parish Church.

The village of West Ashling is surrounded by rich and varied countryside close to the slopes of the South Downs, criss crossed with miles of footpaths and bridlepaths as well as many pretty villages with good country pubs and farmshops.

Chichester itself provides a wide range of facilities including the internationally known Festival Theatre, Pallant House Gallery and excellent shopping facilities arranged within its ancient city center. The mainline railway station at Chichester provides a regular service to London Victoria in about 1 hour 40 minutes.

Recreational activities are numerous, many of them centered on the Goodwood Estate, famous for its horse racing including the Qatar Festival, the Festival of Speed and the Revival meeting at its historic motor circuit.

Chichester Harbour, some five miles to the south, has long been popular with sailors and there are many well established clubs but notably Chichester Yacht Basin, Bosham and Itchenor. The blue flag beaches of West Wittering can be found approximately nine miles to the south as well as the National Trust Reserve at East Head.
