About this listing
Looking for something truly special?
Set within a magnificent Victorian rectory dating back to the 1880s, this elegant home offers a rare opportunity to rent a generous portion of a substantial period residence on a licence to occupy basis (similar to a lodger arrangement).
This is far more than a typical rental — it’s an opportunity to live within an impressive, character-filled home, surrounded by history and charm. The property showcases high ceilings, large sash windows, ornate cornicing, and decorative fireplaces, creating a warm yet grand atmosphere throughout.
The accommodation available is notably spacious and includes a private bedroom, private bathroom and a large dedicated study/home office for your sole use — perfect for remote working, writing, or quiet reflection. In addition, residents have shared access to the kitchen, welcoming reception rooms and beautiful landscaped gardens, providing plenty of room to relax or entertain.
The setting is wonderfully peaceful, tucked away amongst mature trees and well-kept lawns and the property is maintained to a high standard with the support of a weekly cleaner and gardener. Yet has all the benefit of being within walking distance to Chichester centre, the University and the Hospital.
This unique arrangement would suit a single professional, academic, or couple seeking a comfortable, refined, and inspiring place to live, offering space and character.
The rent is inclusive of all bills (subject to fair usage), and please note this is a non-smoking home with no pets permitted.
Available from 19th September
