Full description

Occupying an enviable waterfront position at the foot of historic King Street, this exceptional townhouse commands uninterrupted views across the Emsworth Channel and towards Chichester Harbour, enjoying a rare dual aspect with captivating outlooks to both the east and west. Offered with vacant possession, the property presents a unique opportunity to acquire a superb coastal home in one of Emsworth's most sought-after waterside settings.

Arranged over three floors, the accommodation has been thoughtfully configured to maximise both the views and the exceptional lifestyle afforded by its harbour-side location. The ground floor comprises a welcoming entrance hall with direct access to the integral garage, providing ideal storage for sailing equipment, paddleboards and watersports accessories, together with a cloakroom and a separate shower room/utility room, perfectly suited for those returning from a day on the water.

The principal living accommodation occupies the first floor. To the front, a beautifully proportioned sitting room enjoys a westerly aspect, with full-width bi-folding doors framing the ever-changing harbour scene and opening onto a veranda; an idyllic setting for entertaining, relaxing and enjoying spectacular sunsets over the water. To the rear, the contemporary kitchen/dining room is bathed in morning sunlight and enjoys equally attractive views across the harbour towards the property's private mooring, creating a wonderful space for everyday living and informal dining.

The second floor provides three well-appointed bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en-suite shower room. A family bathroom and additional storage complete the accommodation.

Outside, the property benefits from a private east-facing terrace, integral garage and private driveway parking.

A particular highlight is the inclusion of a private 25ft mooring, offering direct access to the outstanding sailing waters of Chichester Harbour. Residents also enjoy access to 'The Mole', an adjoining waterfront area providing convenient access to the moorings and further enhancing the property's exceptional maritime appeal.

Properties occupying such a privileged position are rarely available, combining direct waterfront living, private boating facilities and immediate access to the thriving sailing community.

The cost of these checks is £80 + VAT per purchase which is paid in advance, directly to Lifetime Legal.

Why live in Emsworth?

1 of 8

The perfect blend of town, country and coastal life is what draws people from all walks of life to Emsworth, Havant and Rowlands Castle.

Moving to Emsworth

Emsworth itself was once a fishing village, known for boatbuilding, ropemaking and oyster farming. Although many of the old ways are long gone, the town has retained much of its old-fashioned charm and added a modern twist.

As one of the most successful estate agents in Emsworth, we love working in this fabulous seafront setting. Emsworth has lots of independent shops, a butcher, fishmonger, florist, delicatessen, supermarkets and nearby farm shops. We’re also spoilt by the number of popular pubs, bars and restaurants here where you can enjoy a chilled drink with friends as the sun goes down or fine dining with a waterside view.

With its coastal setting, Emsworth is a paradise for sailors. Wonderful waterside properties line the harbour and there’s a choice of local sailing clubs, whether you’re just finding your sea legs or you’re a seasoned sailor. Nearby Hayling Island is the spiritual home of windsurfing. On weekends, you’ll often see them racing and dancing across the waves as you stroll the long, golden beaches.

Emsworth is a great place for families too. You’ll find a great selection of good schools, including St. James Primary School, Emsworth Primary School, Warblington Secondary School and Bourne Community College.

The many artists who live and work here throw open their studio doors to show their work at the annual Emsworth Art Trail. The Emsworth Horticultural Society holds the annual Emworth Show over the August Bank Holiday, which includes demonstrations of ancient crafts such as glass-blowing, wood turning, falconry and beekeeping. It’s a buzzing community with local business networks firing on all cylinders and its own magazine, The Ems, keeping everyone updated on local events.

Moving to Rowlands Castle

Just inland is the pretty village of Rowlands Castle, bordered by the spectacular scenery of the South Downs National Park. The village lies a few miles north of Chichester and Portsmouth, so there’s great access to all the amenities of city life from a countryside setting. Closer to home, Rowlands Castle itself has all you need for everyday living, from a convenience store, pharmacy, vets and a post office just off the traditional village green.

Henry Adams has been the trusted choice for estate agents in Rowlands Castle for over 30 years. In 2022, we extended our reach in the village when Henry Adams acquired the sales and lettings portfolios of Harris, Parkes & Drake, a highly respected local, independent agency.

Rowlands Castle has three friendly pubs and a cafe, a railway station with a direct line to London Waterloo, and easy access to the A3(M) interchange which links to Portsmouth, Petersfield and London. There are plenty of local opportunities for taking time to enjoy life, including Rowlands Castle Golf Club nearby, Rowlands Castle Tennis Club, and the great Stansted Estate for scenic walks and a sense of grandeur.

Moving to Havant

Nestled in the southeast corner of Hampshire is the historic market town of Havant. Situated close to the coast, Havant is bordered by the South Downs and the Solent. Langstone Bridge connects the mainland to Hayling Island with its long stretches of beaches and waterside walks.

This area has great connections. The A27 runs along the southern fringes of Havant, linking to Chichester & Brighton to the east and to Portsmouth & Southampton to the west. Travelling northwards the A3(M) provides easy access to Horndean, Petersfield, Haslemere, Guildford and central London.

Havant’s rich history dates back to Roman times and is mentioned in the Doomsday Book in 1086 when its population was about 100 people. Over the years, it’s grown through trade and agriculture, as well as the thriving glove-making trade in the 1700s. The Victorian-era train station now connects passengers directly to London with some journey times taking less than an hour and a half to the capital. The architecture reflects the evolution of Havant, with Georgian buildings lending character from earlier years.Today there are specialist retailers, high street shops, a twice-weekly market, restaurants, pubs, and Horizon Leisure Centre which has a 25m indoor pool and caters to a range of sporting interests.
