3 bed detached house for sale

St. Pauls Road, Chichester, West Sussex PO19

A rare opportunity to acquire a home rich in history, generous accommodation and future potential.

Dating back to 1810, with single-storey extensions added to the front and rear in the 1920s, The Angel Inn is a striking former public house that has been carefully transitioned into a substantial residential property, retaining the charm, scale and architectural character of its past. Once a place of gathering and hospitality, the building now offers a rare opportunity to acquire a home rich in history, generous accommodation and future potential.

The ground floor provides flexible living space suited to a variety of needs. There are four reception rooms, two of which could comfortably be utilised as ground-floor bedrooms, home offices or studios. Throughout this level, beautiful period fireplaces act as elegant focal points, enhancing the warmth of the property. The kitchen is fitted with a range of base and wall units, with space for freestanding appliances. A downstairs shower room offers further practicality.

On the first floor is the former billiard room, currently used as a bedroom and benefiting from an ensuite bathroom. In addition, there is another bedroom and a kitchenette. Further versatility is provided by the cellar level, which benefits from a full-height ceiling, an additional bathroom, and offers useful ancillary space with potential for a variety of uses.

Importantly, the property has previously been granted planning permission to convert it into a four-bedroom, four-bathroom family home. Although this consent has now lapsed, it highlights the considerable potential of the building and the scope for future reconfiguration, subject to the usual approvals.

Externally, the property enjoys a walled rear garden featuring a range of mature shrubs and established bushes, as well as a charming side courtyard garden, together providing private and attractive outdoor spaces that complement the character of the house.

This home represents a compelling blend of historic provenance, flexible accommodation and development potential. With its period features, adaptable layout and enclosed garden, this is a truly individual home offering both immediate charm and long-term opportunity.
