* Historic waterfront property in prime location designed by the renowned G. Blair Imrie and T. Angell and built in the early 1900s * Bosham Quay, cafes, restaurants, pubs, beautiful walks all on the doorstep * Fabulous harbour views from nearly every room * Part of Chichester Harbour, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty * Close to the Goodwood Estate for horse and motor racing events I am thrilled to welcome you to my family home, an original Arts and Crafts era house, located on Bosham Quay—one of the most idyllic spots on the South Coast—with spectacular views from every room. Ground Floor: As you come down the driveway and approach the house, immediately on your left, you will see the private slipway into the harbour, and there is parking for 5 cars. Enter through the front door into the kitchen area with original cabinetry from when the house was built. As you head down the hallway, on the left-hand side, there is a twin bedded room with views out to the harbour and quayside. There is a shower room and a separate WC downstairs. The sitting room, with its views of Quay Meadow and the harbour, is a charming room for spending time in or relaxing in front of the smart TV . Beyond the sitting room is the glazed dining room, which sits right on the harbour wall. This is a fabulous place to dine with friends and family as you watch the boats and sailing happening right there on the Bosham waterfront. First Floor: As you head up the original oak staircase to the landing, more spectacular views await you of the quayside and the sailing club. There are two single bedrooms, both with handwash basins. There is a family bathroom, and further along are the two spacious super king bedrooms, one of which has an ensuite bathroom. There is plenty of storage for clothes. Outside: The garden runs along the harbour wall, and there is a private slipway for launching dinghies or kayaks. There are public footpaths right outside the property, which take you along the water's edge but are not accessible at high tide. Just outside the property is Quay Meadow, another lovely place to sit and watch the world go by, and Holy Trinity Church, which dates back to Saxon times and is depicted in the Bayeux Tapestry as the location where King Harold stayed before heading to Normandy. It is said that King Canute's daughter is buried in the church.
Bosham is a lovely village located in Chichester Harbour and steeped in history. It is famous for where King Canute tried to hold back the tide and also features in the Bayeux Tapestry!
Bosham Harbour and Saxon church are a stone's throw from the house - there are cafes, an arts and crafts centre and a pretty pub both overlooking the water.
The Roman town of Chichester is 5 miles east of Bosham and its pedestrian centre is home to boutique shops, cafes, restaurants, galleries and The Chichester Cathedral with its unique separate bell tower. Bird watchers might spot the Peregrine Falcons nesting in the tower.
The Itchenor ferry can be caught from the southerly most point in Bosham - follow Shore Road and the signs - parking is available or it is a pleasant 30 minute walk around the harbour's edge - the ferry will take you across the water to the historic sailing village of Itchenor. From Itchenor you can walk along the Salterns Way to West Wittering Beach - or just stop for a bite to eat in The Ship Inn or the Quarterdeck Cafe.
