Laxton Meadow, Funtington, PO18

Set in the centre of this popular Downland village, a beautifully appointed detached home with landscaped gardens, contemporary family accommodation, bespoke finishes and a detached gym/store.

This beautifully presented detached village house sits within mature landscaped gardens, combining modern architecture with practical family accommodation. Built by DG Phillips in 2020 and subsequently improved by the current owners, this stunning family home now offers bespoke storage, reconfigured outdoor space and a detached outbuilding, previously the garage, adapted to provide a gym and useful store.

The accommodation extends to a generous and highly adaptable layout, centred around an impressive open-plan kitchen/dining/family room that forms the heart of the house. Sleek contemporary cabinetry, integrated appliances and a large central island create a clean architectural feel, while the dining area beyond opens naturally into a relaxed family seating space, ideal for everyday living and entertaining alike. A separate sitting room provides a beautifully styled reception space with built-in shelving, feature wallpaper and doors opening directly onto the garden terrace, bringing excellent natural light into the room.

From the reception hall, a study offers an ideal home-working space, alongside a cloakroom and useful utility room. Upstairs, four bedrooms are arranged around a central landing, including a principal bedroom with fitted wardrobes and ensuite shower room, with three further bedrooms served by a contemporary family bathroom. Each room has been individually styled, giving the house warmth and character while retaining a clean modern finish.

Outside, the garden has been carefully redesigned to provide structure, privacy and excellent entertaining space, with a broad paved terrace adjoining the house, planted borders and a covered outdoor dining area with fitted kitchen, creating an ideal setting for summer gatherings. To the rear of the plot, the detached former garage has been converted to provide a gym and separate store, adding valuable ancillary space suited to a variety of uses.

Further benefits include underfloor heating via an air source heat pump, high-quality double glazing and gravelled off-road parking for several vehicles.
