Full description

Situated within a desirable private road, just moments from the beach and close to the nearby village shops, this substantial detached family house offers an exceptional blend of space and versatility.

Boasting approximately 2,176 sq ft of accommodation, the property is thoughtfully arranged to suit both family living and entertaining. The inviting entrance hall leads to a generously sized sitting room, perfect for relaxing evenings or gathering with friends. The kitchen overlooks the rear garden and leads onto a dedicated dining room, creating a sociable hub for meal times, while a separate utility room and store provides practical convenience. The ground floor also includes a suite of rooms which could be used as an annexe: double bedroom with en-suite shower room and WC, along with an adjacent room currently used as a snug. A further WC accessed from the entrance hall completes the ground floor.

The first floor comprises family bathroom and four bedrooms. The principal bedroom has access into a walk-in eaves cupboard which could potentially be adapted for use as an en-suite, subject to the usual permissions if needed. Stairs from the first floor rise to the second floor where a further bedroom will be found - or perhaps the perfect studio room or home office?

Outside, there is ample off-road parking to the front of the property, whilst the enclosed rear garden provides a good level of privacy and enjoys a westerly aspect backing onto the Shrubbs Field recreation ground.

Whether you are seeking a peaceful coastal retreat or a spacious family home within easy reach of the beach, this exceptional property delivers a rare opportunity to enjoy a coveted lifestyle in one of the area’s most sought-after locations.

Why live in Middleton-on-Sea?

The development of modern Middleton began after World War I, when Captain H Rowlands S Coldicott purchased great swathes of farmland with a plan to create both a residential estate and a village community.

This led to the development of the private Sea Lane Estate, which is still a sought-after residential area today thanks to its proximity to the sea and local shops. There are also many pretty thatched properties in the area along with small retirement apartments, bungalows and large family homes that enjoy direct access to the sea while, in neighbouring Felpham, we have the glorious private Summerley Estate.

Middleton-on-Sea is within easy reach of Chichester and Bognor Regis and is a perfect setting for family life. We have two local schools, including the Bishop Tufnell Primary School and the Felpham Community College for secondary students, along with a day nursery for pre-school children. We also have a good range of shops for such a small village, including coffee shops, a Post Office, a family butcher, a general store, newsagent, fish and chip shops, gift shops, a florist and some friendly pubs.

At low tide, Middleton-on-Sea’s sandy beach stretches from Littlehampton to Bognor Regis and is a favourite for local dog walkers and those who enjoy the fresh air and tranquillity of the sea.  Elmer Sands, a mile east of Middleton, is a particular beauty spot, enhanced by the interesting rock islands that were built as a sea defence two decades ago and which have left rock pools and safe areas for swimming and beginner water sports. Over in Felpham you’ll find beachfront cafés, the Arun Leisure Centre, which has a swimming pool and a well equipped gym, and public tennis courts next to the Promenade.
