A rare opportunity to acquire a beautiful and historic period cottage, formally known as The Jolly Fisherman public house. The property is arranged today as two self contained cottages, one within the former pub and the second within a converted attached barn.
Formerly known as The Jolly Fisherman public house, this charming property provides a wealth of period features accompanied with adaptable living accommodation throughout. In our opinion the property would ideally suit those looking for an Air BnB opportunity or self contained accommodation for relatives. Alternatively the two cottages could easily be linked internally at ground floor level.
The Main Cottage
Accessed through a useful entrance porch there is a charming sitting room with exposed beams, sash window and feature wood burning stove. This former saloon bar opens through to a superb and spacious family room, ideal for entertaining, with attractive parquet flooring and double doors opening onto the west facing garden. Towards the other end of the former pub there is a kitchen/breakfast room. Completing the ground floor there is a utility room and a cloakroom. Upstairs there are two double bedrooms (both with en suite facilities).
The Barn Conversion
Converted some twenty years ago, this superb former grain store provides light and bright accommodation throughout with ample natural light streaming through floor to ceiling windows. Upon entering there is a lovely sitting room which opens through to a smart kitchen with ample storage units. From one end of the kitchen a door opens through to a double aspect study/dining room and to the other end, double doors open onto the west facing garden. Completing the ground floor there us a utility/cloakroom.
Upstairs there are two superb double height bedrooms, complete with exposed beams and flint walls, conservation light windows and en suite facilities.
Garden and Grounds
With a predominantly westerly rural outlook the mature garden provides a number of features, including the ability to allow the barn to have its own outdoor space. A lovely low lying flint wall separates a portion of the garden to provide a large area laid to lawn bordered by attractive post and rail fencing bordering the neighbouring field. Immediately outside the cottage there is a large patio area and an al fresco dining area under mature vines. To the north of the cottage there is a further expanse laid to lawn with a vegetable patch, garden store and greenhouse to one side and further seating area to the other side.
To the front of the property off street parking is provided along with access to an integral store room /car port.
Location
Jolly Fisherman Cottage is located in a convenient position just over a quarter of a mile away from the Pagham Harbour Nature Reserve (a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) and tranquil Sidlesham Quay, believed to be described by Pevsner as "a miniature Bosham". The Quay was once a busy port, loading ships bound for France during the Napoleonic wars, but is now a beautifully tranquil nature reserve, famed for its wide variety of water-birds. Aside from the Quay and harbour there are a number of nearby amenities which include a popular primary school, village store, garage, church and two public houses, including the renowned Crab & Lobster. The stunning beach at Church Norton is a short drive away. Popular recreational activities include golf from the Chichester Golf Centre, horseracing, motor racing, flying and golf at Goodwood, sailing on Chichester Harbour (with two local marinas at Birdham Pool and Chichester Yacht Basin) and sailing clubs including Itchenor, Bosham and West Wittering. The cathedral city of Chichester, 6 miles to the north, provides a range of comprehensive shopping, restaurants and bistros. The internationally known Festival Theatre and Pallant House Gallery are just a few examples of further nearby attractions. A nearby bus service runs to Selsey and to Chichester where there are also excellent railway links with regular services to London (Victoria), Gatwick Airport, Brighton, Portsmouth and Southampton.
