The Property
Windward House was built by Octagon Homes in 2006 and finished to a high standard as many of the aspects of the interior where significantly upgraded at the time. The ground floor has a light, welcoming open plan layout with underfloor heating throughout and plantation shutters to many windows. The sitting room is some 21 ft in length with handsome fireplace and sealed unit double glazed doors opening directly onto a sheltered terrace and partially walled garden. The kitchen has an excellent range of matching units with polished stone worksurfaces and an extensive range of integrated appliances including dishwasher, induction hob, fan assisted oven/grill, fridge/freezer with ice maker, wine cooler, microwave and coffee maker. The present owners recently extended the house to create a triple aspect vaulted garden/dining room directly alongside the kitchen. This also has double doors onto the terrace and garden. The kitchen also has direct access to the integral garage which has a utility area keeping the white goods away from the main living rooms. It also provides generous storage with a large loft room above.

On the first floor there are four bedrooms including a principal suite with shower room whilst a well-appointed bathroom serves the remaining three bedrooms.

Outside
The house is set a little way back from the road with a south facing front garden enclosed by well-established yew hedging together with a sheltered south facing sitting area. A driveway provides casual parking in addition to the double garage. Sealed unit double glazed doors from the sitting room and garden room open directly onto a paved terrace and stone shingle sitting area planted with evergreen jasmine. The garden is easily maintained with a manageable lawn and borders planted with evergreen climbers, rosemary and climbing roses. There is a second paviour set tiled terrace designed to catch the evening sun. A well-established cherry tree and fir create attractive focal points. There is also pedestrian side access to the front of the property.

Location
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.
