Full description

Coast & Country by Henry Adams is delighted to introduce Medmerry View, a striking contemporary home designed and built by our clients to an exceptional specification, set in approximately 5 acres on the Manhood Peninsula. It is a rare offering — a high-specification modern house paired with established equestrian facilities, a versatile range of outbuildings, beautifully kept gardens, and genuine scope to redevelop or extend, subject to the necessary consents. Across the main house, annexe and various outbuildings there vast space on offer totally over 8500 sqft.

The main house is arranged over two floors, and the sense of light and space is immediate. At its heart is a wonderful open-plan kitchen, dining and living room beneath a double-height vaulted ceiling, where 7-metre south-facing windows flood the space with natural light throughout the day. The bespoke kitchen has been finished to a superb standard, with Corian worktops and a full suite of integrated AEG appliances, making it as practical for everyday family life as it is for entertaining. A well-proportioned study, a comfortable double bedroom with en suite, and a separate utility with cloakroom complete the ground floor.

A sculptural cantilevered staircase rises to a galleried landing overlooking the dining area below, with walls finished in elegant Venetian plaster. To one side, a generous guest bedroom enjoys high ceilings and a beautifully appointed en suite with a Lusso Stone bath. Double doors on the opposite side open into the principal bedroom suite — a genuinely indulgent space, complete with a west-facing balcony perfectly placed for evening sun, and a Jacuzzi spa bath - both bedrooms benefit from their own private balconies.

Technology has been thoughtfully integrated throughout. A Control4 system manages lighting, television, music and intercom at the touch of a button, while Bowers & Wilkins ceiling speakers, discreetly positioned throughout the house, deliver outstanding sound quality in every room. Externally, James Hardie and Millboard weatherproof cladding gives the property its clean, contemporary lines while keeping long-term maintenance refreshingly low.

A separate building measuring over 1,500 sqft offers two further rooms configured as a gym study as well as a shower room — an excellent addition for extended family, guests, a home office, or a games and entertaining space.

The wider grounds are where Medmerry View really sets itself apart. Equestrian buyers will find an established setup with stabling, a tack room and a manège, while a secure steel barn and further steel storage barns provide first-rate facilities for machinery, vehicles or hobby use. There is also exciting scope to add a swimming pool or tennis court within the grounds, subject to the relevant consents.

Properties of this calibre, combining an architect-led contemporary home with five acres, equestrian facilities and this breadth of outbuildings, are seldom available so close to the West Sussex coast. Medmerry View is an opportunity that genuinely rewards a closer look.

People flock to East Wittering during the holiday season thanks to our world-famous beaches that are so beautiful and a way of life that’s relaxed and warm.

It’s little wonder we experienced significant building development during the 1960s and ‘80s when our rich mix of character house styles in the Witterings made it hard for people to leave. Many of the properties in the area enjoy wonderful views across the English Channel and the sound of distant waves provides a soothing backing track to everyday life here.

There’s no shortage of things to do in the area, especially if you enjoy spending time on the beach, playing water sports and experiencing the countryside and wildlife.  Both East and West Wittering are well known for sailing and surfing and there are local sailing clubs at West Wittering, Itchenor and Dell Quay and mooring facilities at Chichester Marina. West Wittering beach is postcard-perfect with its vast expanses of fine golden sand while East Wittering is more typically English with a shingle shelf that’s exposed when the tide goes out leaving behind stunning areas of wet sand where you can make sandcastles to your heart’s content. The nearby Bracklesham Bay is especially popular with surfers, divers, windsurfers and paddle boarders as well as being a treasure trove for fossil hunters.

We have everything here you need to enjoy this idyllic lifestyle here. In the village you’ll find a good selection of shops, including mini supermarkets, greengrocers, butchers, banks, bakers and a fishmonger and everything is close by in Chichester and Portsmouth.  We have two local schools for children up to 11 years of age at East Wittering Community Primary School and West Wittering Parochial C of E School and a choice of secondary schools and further education options in Chichester.
