Willoughby House is a charming detached, characterful property believed to date originally from the turn of the 19th Century, which has subsequently been extended.

The house offers well-presented and versatile accommodation with a light and airy atmosphere. A welcoming reception hall, with glazed panels, gives access to a dining room, which features an open fireplace and provides ample space for a good sized dining table. The adjoining triple-aspect sitting room provides relaxed comfort, with a further fireplace and south-facing bay-window. A light-filled and spacious kitchen/breakfast room can be reached via an inner hallway or directly from the dining room. Featuring oak wooden flooring, ceiling beams and well-fitted shaker style units, this room offers views over the rear garden. A large, dual-aspect office, suitable for home-working or for use as a studio, along with a ground floor shower/cloakroom complete the accommodation at this level.

A wooden staircase leads up to the first floor, where there are four excellent double bedrooms, together with a family bathroom, featuring a free-standing roll-top bath and a separate shower room.

The property enjoys a rural setting on the fringes of this much favoured sailing village, with its famous Saxon church, convenience store, primary school, pubs and cafes. The popular sailing club attracts dinghy sailors and yachtsmen alike, with access to excellent sailing within the harbour and the Solent beyond.

Chichester to the east, with its Festival Theatre and ancient cathedral, offers a broad range of shopping and leisure amenities, as well as galleries, a museum and restaurants. A mainline railway station at Chichester provides a service to London Victoria (1hr 33 minutes), and there is a useful halt at Bosham. Havant, 7.5 miles to the west, offers a faster (70 minutes) service to London Waterloo.

Leisure pursuits within the area, in addition to sailing, include horseracing at Goodwood, which also hosts events for motoring enthusiasts, as well as several golf courses. The beautiful beaches of West Wittering are just 10 miles away and cater for bathing and wind/kite surfing.

The property is approached via a gravel driveway, providing parking and dinghy storage, and gives access to a garage and the pillared entrance porch. The gardens are mainly laid to lawn with mature trees and shrubs, as well as an area of terracing suitable for outdoor dining and relaxation.

In 2017 planning permission was granted to add a garden room/orangery extension.
