Only the second time on the market since it was built in the mid 1930’s, in a superb location at the end of Lock Lane with views over Birdham Pool and neighbouring farmland. A well-proportioned family home of character with outbuildings, set in gardens of approximately 0.8 of an acre with ...
Property Oracle says ..
This five-bedroom, three-bathroom detached house in Birdham, West Sussex, presents a compelling proposition for buyers seeking a substantial family home in a picturesque setting. Nestled near Birdham Pool, the property offers stunning views of the water and surrounding farmland. The expansive grounds of approximately 0.8 acres are a significant feature, incorporating a well-maintained lawn, a tennis court, and mature landscaping, offering ample space for outdoor activities and recreation.
The house itself appears spacious and comfortable, with several reception rooms, including what seems to be a sizable kitchen, a sunroom, and a charming dining area. While some of the interior decor displays a traditional style, certain areas may benefit from modernisation. Specifically, the kitchen and some bathrooms appear to be somewhat dated and could be updated to suit contemporary tastes. The house’s layout seems practical, suitable for a family, but the exact dimensions are unfortunately not given in the property information, hindering a precise assessment of its spatial organization and overall size.
The location is a significant strength. Birdham’s desirable village setting offers a peaceful atmosphere, yet maintains relatively close proximity to amenities and the larger town of Chichester. Access to local schools, both primary and secondary, is another key advantage for families. Transport links, while not immediately on the doorstep, are within a reasonable driving distance, giving access to rail services to larger cities.
In summary, this property offers a unique blend of charm, space, and location. While potential buyers may wish to factor in the cost of some modernisation, the substantial land, picturesque setting, and overall quality of the property make it an attractive investment. The lack of square footage information is a noteworthy omission in the listing and prevents a complete comparative market analysis.
Therefore, we give this property 8 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
