3 bed detached house for sale

Brook Avenue, Bosham, Chichester, West Sussex PO18

Occupying a delightful and peaceful 1/4 acre plot with almost total privacy, an Arts & Crafts style detached house in need of modernisation and renovation.

The house is believed to date from the 1920's and provides attractive accommodation with internal Arts & Crafts character, and will allow a buyer the opportunity to create a lovely and comfortable home in a little known back water of Bosham, close to The Millstream Hotel, sailing club and Trippet.

Bosham is perhaps the prettiest of villages on Chichester Harbour and one of the premier centres for sailing on the south coast with a ready supply of moorings and a thriving sailing club which hosts one of the largest fleets of classic day boats in the country. The village has an interesting history with the chancel of its Saxon church featuring in the Bayeux Tapestry and also having a claim as being the location where King Canute tried to hold back the rising tide. The village has an active local community with a primary school, two pubs and a very popular hotel/restaurant, tea rooms and an arts and crafts centre. A little further to the north is a well-stocked farm shop, sub post office and medical centre. Sailing is the premier past time in the immediate area but other recreational activities are well catered for. Golf courses can be found at Goodwood, Fontwell and Hunston. West Wittering can be found within approximately 10 miles and has stunning blue flag beaches and the National Trust Reserve at East Head. Bosham village has its own railway halt providing a connection to either Chichester or Havant both of which provide regular services to London Victoria and Waterloo respectively.
