Features and description
DESCRIPTION:
The ground floor of the main house comprises a side entrance hall/utility room with WC, a kitchen, dual-aspect dining room, and a sitting room with doors opening to the garden. On the first floor, the principal bedroom benefits from a dressing room and ensuite bathroom. There are three further bedrooms, a small nursery/study, and a family bathroom.
Annexe 1 is accessed from the front, rear, or internally via the sitting room and comprises a kitchenette, bedroom/study, and ensuite shower room.
Annexe 2 has its own entrance from the front garden and also links to the main house. It includes a kitchen, sitting room, ground floor shower room, and two first floor bedrooms, both of which connect with the main landing.
Set halfway down the garden is a detached two-bedroom annexe comprising an open-plan kitchen/dining room, two double bedrooms, and a family bathroom.
Outside, the gardens are mature and south-facing, with lawned areas, raised beds, mature trees, and areas of light woodland. Outbuildings include a 1930s two-bedroom timber lodge with felt roof, a single garage, and multiple sheds. A large, gravelled parking area provides space for several vehicles.
N.B. All areas are approximate. The purchaser will be required to erect a new boundary fence separating the property from retained land to the west.
An overage provision applies to the erection of additional dwellings on the land.
LOCATION:
The property is located within walking or cycling distance of the village of Birdham, the harbour, and the popular villages of Itchenor and Chichester. Birdham Pool and Chichester Marina are also nearby.
Birdham is a picturesque village and civil parish located on the Manhood Peninsula in West Sussex, approximately five miles southwest of the historic city of Chichester. Its strategic position offers residents and visitors convenient access to both the city and the scenic waters of Chichester Harbour and the Solent.
The village is particularly well known for its maritime connections and is home to two of the area’s most prominent marinas: Birdham Pool and Chichester Marina. Birdham Pool, situated on the site of a former tide mill, is one of the oldest marinas in the UK, while neighbouring Chichester Marina is among the largest in the country, offering extensive facilities for boating enthusiasts.
Birdham is ideally situated for access to several prestigious sailing clubs, including Itchenor Sailing Club, Dell Quay Sailing Club, and Chichester Yacht Club, all of which provide excellent sailing, racing, and social opportunities. The area is extremely popular with sailors, given the sheltered waters of Chichester Harbour and its direct access to the Solent beyond.
The village has deep historical roots, with a name thought to derive from the Old English bridd and h?m, meaning a settlement frequented by young birds. It was recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086. St James’ Church, a key feature of the village, dates from the 14th century and includes a 16th-century tower.
Birdham lies on the Salterns Way, a popular cycle and footpath that links Chichester with West Wittering via scenic routes through the surrounding countryside and coastline. The proximity to the Chichester Harbour Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty further enhances the village’s appeal, offering opportunities for sailing, walking, birdwatching and enjoying the unspoilt coastal environment.
Birdham retains a strong village character, with a close-knit community and essential local amenities. More extensive facilities can be found in nearby Chichester, which offers a broad range of shops, restaurants, cultural attractions, and transport links including mainline rail services to London and beyond.
