How our lovely Cathedral benefits property for sale in Chichester

Whilst any city by definition must boast a cathedral, there are few better than Chichester’s when it comes to the influence they exert on the city itself.

Any property for sale in Chichester will benefit from the charm and presence of its stately cathedral, and despite the city’s modest size it has a building of historic significance to be proud of. Recent research has shown that property within a 5 km radius of a cathedral will command a premium over surrounding areas and taking a look at Chichester’s famous landmark, it’s easy to see why.
