Full description

This charming detached house, dating back to 1935, is a rare opportunity to acquire a property of character within 500 metres of the beach. Set on a generous plot of approximately one third of an acre, the home offers versatile accommodation with three double bedrooms and three reception rooms, ideal for family living or entertaining. The interior is brimming with period features, including original wooden door latches and a combination of wooden and tiled flooring, adding warmth and character throughout. The kitchen breakfast room is complemented by a practical walk in larder. The property also benefits from a driveway and additional space to park on the opposing side, along with a garage with plumbed sink and barn style doors, providing ample off road parking. Offered with no onward chain, this home presents an exciting opportunity for buyers seeking a distinctive residence in a highly desirable & quiet location.

The outside space is equally impressive, with the rear garden mainly laid to lawn and framed by mature borders, creating a private and tranquil setting along with a large shed and freestanding greenhouse. Twin side access leads to the front garden, which is also laid to lawn and features mature flower and shrub beds. Multiple paved seating areas offer ideal spots for al fresco dining or relaxing, while a wooden summer house provides additional space for hobbies or storage. Directly opposite the main residence (across the private lane), the property enjoys the rare benefit of an additional garden and orchard plot, enclosed by mature hedging for privacy. This area is mainly laid to lawn and includes well-established vegetable beds and a variety of mature fruit trees (perfect for keen gardeners or those seeking a taste of the good life). With its blend of character features, generous plot, and proximity to the beach, this property is a unique find in the local market.

Why live in Selsey?

It may be classed as a town, but Selsey is still a seaside village at heart and, whether you’re looking for a dream home by the beach, a place to indulge your passion for watersports or a quiet retreat away from the hustle and bustle of life, Selsey has it all.

The old town in the south east quarter is known for its charming historic properties, including 17th century thatched houses while you’ll find many large and secluded homes offering stunning views of the water by the seafront. The north of Selsey has many 1970s style properties with more substantial, semi-rural homes set around them.

You’ll find a great selection of shops, pubs and restaurants right here on the High Street along with a strong sense of community, especially at Christmas when the Selsey Lights are a sight to behold. We have two local primary schools, Medmerry Primary and the Seal Primary Academy, and The Academy Selsey senior school in the town with more options in Chichester, including Chichester High School.

Selsey has a long-standing love of sport and is proud home to both Selsey Cricket Club and the Selsey Football and Social Club, as well as a bowls and tennis club, but you’ll find even more sporting activity by the water. If you like scuba diving or snorkelling we have some of the best water for diving in the UK, with more than 100 wrecks to explore just off the coast. If you’re keen to learn, the Mulberry Divers Centre on East Beach offers tuition to everyone from complete beginners to advanced divers. There’s swimming, sailing and windsurfing around the Selsey Bill headland or bike rides along the coastal cycle path or to the stunning beaches at Bracklesham Bay, East Wittering or West Wittering where you can feel the sand under your feet.

While Selsey offers the best of seaside living, it’s just less than 10 miles from the cultural heartland of Chichester and everything that the famous cathedral city has to offer, from the plentiful shops to the Festival Theatre. So you see, Selsey really does have it all.
