This deceptively spacious family house stands on a much sought after private lane in a tucked away position in good sized south facing grounds, just 200 yards from the sailing club and the waters of Chichester Harbour.

Moness is a charming and beautifully presented family home located within the sailing village of Itchenor. Ideally situated off Orchard Lane, a much sought after and private no through lane, this delightful home sits within good sized south facing grounds of approximately a third of an acre and also provides a detached double garage block and ample parking.

Upon entering via an attractive porchway, with flowering clematis outside, there is a wide reception hall which follows through to a light and bright 22' sitting room, featuring substantial sliding doors opening onto the south facing garden. To the side there is a dining room and towards the front there is a large kitchen/breakfast room and a separate utility room, with access to the garden and garage beyond. On the other side of the hallway there is a study/fourth bedroom and a ground floor shower room opposite.

Upstairs there are three bedrooms. Both the front and rear bedrooms provide ample built in storage, with the main bedroom featuring a substantial and smart en suite bathroom. In our opinion the third bedroom would also make a superb children's bedroom, with space for a pair of bunk beds. A further family bathroom completes the first floor accommodation.

Aside from the tucked away central location, a particular feature of the property is the charming south facing private garden. The forward section of the rear garden is mainly laid to lawn, and to the rear a collection of mature trees of various specimens. Throughout there is a wide selection of flowering shrubs and plants. An attractive brick built boundary wall runs along the northern boundary.

Ideal for sailing enthusiasts, to both sides of the property there is ample space for winter boat storage, with the western section approached by double gates. Ample off street parking is provided to the front along with a detached garage block. Subject to the usual consents this could be converted to form a studio/annexe, or joined to the main body of the house.
