5 bedroom detached house

In the heart of this charming harbourside village, a short stroll form the water, a lovely, detached 5 bedroom house, with the potential to improve and extend (subject to planning consent), set within 0.6 acres.

Hirgan Cottages offers excellent and attractively presented accommodation of character, in an open-plan style, perfect for a family, and includes features such as an open fireplace and an Aga in the kitchen, giving the house a warm and welcoming feel. The pretty gardens, of about 0.6 acre, offer privacy and charm, and include an orchard, old flint wall and three useful outbuildings, all overlooking the fields to the east beyond, whilst the front drive, to the west, offers parking for several cars.

Situated in a prime position on The Square, the house stands in a peaceful spot, 300m from the harbour where paddle boarding, kayaking, and sailing may be enjoyed, as well as delightful walks around the harbour's edge. Local amenities are conveniently close. The Southbourne General Stores is a five minute walk and there is easy access to railway stations for towns along the South Coast and Havant (services to London Waterloo). The A3 offers a direct route to London, and Chichester and Portsmouth offer shopping, cultural and leisure facilities. Goodwood, with its spa, hotel, golf club and horse and motor events is a short drive to the north east. There are many miles of public foot and bridle paths in the general area from which to enjoy the countryside. The beautiful South Downs lie to the north and the beaches at the Witterings to the south east.
