2 bedroom penthouse

Number 9 Wharf House is a highly-desirable, top floor apartment offering spacious, immaculately-presented, light and airy accommodation and the benefit of an idyllic waterside setting just moments from the city-centre.

At the heart of the property is an impressive, open-plan kitchen/dining/sitting room filled with natural light, courtesy of the three south-facing windows and the French doors to a balcony, along with two skylights, ensuring the space offers a bright and welcoming environment. Aesthetically zoned to provide a relaxed seating area adjacent to a focal fireplace, a dining area and an adjoining kitchen alcove, the highlight of the room is the continuous enjoyment of the outlook over the waterway. Fitted with sleek, white, wall andbase level cabinetry, topped with granite work surfaces, the kitchen has integrated appliances and a breakfast bar for informal meals, which also creates a functional divide to the dining area.

The generous hallway has fitted cupboard storage and gives access to the bedroom accommodation, which comprises a principal bedroom with fitted wardrobes and a well appointed en suite bathroom providing a bath and a shower cubicle. The second bedroom also offers modern, en suite facilities and wardrobe storage. A separate cloakroom completes the accommodation provided by this stunning, contemporary apartment.

Wharf House is in a wonderfully convenient location for all the Chichester amenities whilst also enjoying the tranquil haven of the canal waterway which links the historic city to the sea, running from the Basin to the Harbour at Birdham. The towpath provides excellent walking and cycling and water activities include narrow boat trips, rowing, canoeing and fishing. A wide range of cultural, leisure and shopping facilities are available in Chichester, including the renowned Festival Theatre and Pallant House Gallery, with Nuffield Health Fitness & Gym and Cineworld less than 500 metres from the apartment. Goodwood Estate, to the north, hosts horse racing events, the Festival of Speed and Revival Meetings, and a country club. Sailing may be enjoyed from centres around Chichester Harbour and bathing and windsurfing from the beaches at the Witterings.

The mainline station provides access along the south coas to London Victoria via Gatwick and London Waterloo via Havant. The A27 gives access to the A3(M) and on to the M25.

There is excellent state and independent schooling in the area including Bishop Luffa School, The Prebendal School, Westbourne House and Portsmouth Grammar School.

Glazed double-doors from the living room lead onto a south-facing balcony, offering space for outdoor dining and relaxation whilst taking in the views of the canal basin and water activities. A gated entrance to Wharf House gives access to underground garaging providing residents with secure, sheltered parking.
