Elm Grove, Barnham

Situated in a quiet, private residential road within a short distance of local shops and mainline station. A light, beautifully finished house with both ground floor and first floor bedrooms, set in an easily maintained south facing garden with ample parking.

A vaulted reception hall with skylight creates a light, welcoming space with double doors ahead opening onto an impressive main reception room with open plan kitchen/dining area being the main focus of everyday family living. This room is some 34ft in length with a lantern light flooding the dining area with natural light and bi-folding doors opening south onto the terrace and garden. The kitchen is fitted with an excellent range of sleek, contemporary units with polished quartz worksurfaces and breakfast bar. A separate utility provides useful additional storage and keeps the white goods away from the main living areas. To the right of the entrance hall is an additional reception room providing a quiet space away from the main living area but also potentially doubling as a fourth bedroom if required. On the other side of the reception hall is a study, ideal for those looking to work from home with an adjacent cloak/shower room.

On the first floor three double bedrooms include a principal bedroom suite with its own shower room whilst the remaining two bedrooms are served by a well-appointed family bathroom.

Outside a broad stone shingled driveway provides ample casual parking to the north of the house. Bi-folding doors from the main reception room open onto a broad south facing terrace running the length of the house with exterior power points. The lawned garden is easily maintained and well established silver birch trees create an attractive focal point. A footpath to one side leads to a garden studio which has its own terrace with external power points and has been built to comply with building regulations and has planning consent for use as ancillary accommodation to the house.

Despite its peaceful setting the house is only a quarter of a mile from the facilities of Barnham village centre which has a good range of local shops including butcher, florist and Coop amongst others with local pubs and schools nearby. There is a railway station with services to London Victoria in about 1 hour 30 minutes. More comprehensive facilities are available at Arundel some 5 miles to the east or the cathedral city of Chichester some 7 miles to the west. There is a good choice of sporting and recreational activities in the area including a number of golf courses, the nearest being at Avisford Park. The unspoilt countryside of the South Downs National Park is criss-crossed with many miles of footpaths and bridlepaths passing through pretty villages, many with friendly local pubs. The nearby Goodwood Estate is famous for its annual Glorious Goodwood Qatar Festival whilst also hosting the annual Festival of Speed and the Revival at its historic motor circuit. There are numerous beaches along the south coast including Climping where Bailiffscourt has an award winning spa and hotel set in 30 acres of private park land leading to Climping beach.
