The Property
Court Green is an impressive Grade II listed townhouse rich in historic character, built on the site of a 13th Century citizen’s court. The property has been recently renovated to a high standard and offers an unusual combination of heritage and period detailing, generous proportioned rooms with tasteful modern updates and high ceilings along with immediate access to countryside walks and the town.
Built of brick with tile hanging to the upper elevations under a clay tiled roof, the accommodation is both elegant and highly practical, making the house suitable for family life and entertaining. The original front door opens onto a stunning tiled hallway, with a guest cloakroom and a doorway through to the spacious Drawing Room with feature fireplace, underfloor heating and French doors overlooking the gardens. An archway leads into the good-sized dining room with wooden parquet flooring and access to the cellar. A newly refurbished kitchen benefits from a range of wall and base units with Corian work surfaces and integrated appliances.
The first floor has a double room with Jack and Jill ensuite shower room, 3 further double bedrooms and a family bathroom. A staircase leads to the second floor with a further attic bedroom and storage room.
Gardens and Grounds
Outside, a cobbled courtyard is located immediately outside the back porch and leads to a brick built single garage and store with access onto the road. Connected to the garage is a room with a fireplace – possibly an old tack or harness room. To the south of the garage is a lean-to wood store and an outside storage cupboard. A path leads to the south into the main garden past a timber summerhouse. A wooden greenhouse has been built onto the southern elevation of the house. The main walled garden is mainly laid to lawn with well established mature plants and shrubs. A path leads to a part walled kitchen garden which is well stocked with apple trees, a fig, pear, blackcurrant, loganberry and blackberry bushes. There are water taps in the main garden and in the kitchen garden. A small area of woodland is located to the East and runs up to the northern boundary. Part of this formed the moat to the C11 castle on the mound.
There is a gravelled parking area to the front of the property accessed through electric gates.
The Location
The town of Midhurst provides for most everyday needs, whilst Guildford in Surrey and the Cathedral city of Chichester, both with renowned Theatres, are within easy reach and have more extensive shopping and leisure facilities. The A3 provides fast access to London, the motorway network, Gatwick, Heathrow and Southampton airports, whilst the mainline station at Haslemere provides a fast service to London Waterloo.
Midhurst and the surrounding area have much to offer with Polo at Cowdray Park, racing at Goodwood and Fontwell, golf at Cowdray Park, Goodwood, Pulborough and Liphook, motor racing at the Goodwood circuit and sailing out of Chichester Harbour and other centres along the South Coast. There are many footpaths and bridleways in the area for walking and riding.
