Properties For Sale, Lavant, Chichester
Where is Lavant?
An appealing area in the Chichester district of West Sussex, Lavant is made up of three separate villages (Mid Lavant, West Lavant and East Lavant). It lies in the Lavant Valley close to Goodwood, taking its name from the River Lavant which passes from East Dean to Chichester.
With Goodwood nearby, it appears there is a mindful gap between Lavant and Chichester to ensure that the village does not become an expansion of the evergrowing Chichester.
