The Best Properties on the Market in Chichester

Mayfield, Prinsted Lane

Mayfield, Prinsted Lane

Resting on the shore of Chichester Harbour in the petite village of Prinsted sits this beautiful property with 3.5 acres of land. The exterior boasts a paddock, gravelled driveway with room for plenty of cars, an outdoor swimming pool and a generously sized terrace area perfect for those who want a restful Sunday by the pool, overlooking the glistening waters head. The interior is equally enthralling with a drawing room with a grand fireplace, perfect for the no-doubt cooler winter months, a luxurious master bedroom with an ensuite bathroom and views over the harbour, and a dining room which leads out, via French doors, to the outside terrace. Available through Strutt & Parker for £2.695m

Kimber

Kimber

A detached home just 1.5 miles north of Chichester’s city centre, Kimber has the best of both worlds. Being so close to the city centre means being close to a hub of culture including shops, wine bars, restaurants, sports centres and galleries. However, the house itself offers peace away from the hubbub, as it overlooks breathtaking open farmland. The property is spacious with 4-bedrooms, all of which look out onto the brilliant views, 3-reception rooms and a conservatory leading from the living room. Available through Humberts for £1.1m

Bremere Lane

Only an hour and a half to London’s Victoria by train, the Sussex-style property is future-proofed with exciting and innovative features decorated in a neutral, contemporary design. Enter via a private lane into the wide entrance hall giving the house an open feel, enjoy the drawing room with triple aspect windows that make it an ultimate sun-trap, and fall in love with the French-doors that lead out onto the terrace with views of the surrounding countryside. Available through Knight Frank for £1.375m
