The property has views over the harbour to the South Downs and beyond and the property itself is truly unique, built with passion, enthusiasm and meticulous attention to detail combining traditional methods of construction with cutting edge technology, materials and fittings.

Upon arrival, one is greeted within the large vaulted hallway, home to a splendid helical staircase finished in walnut to match the flooring that runs throughout the principal reception areas and the walnut doors throughout.

Glass plays an important roll in this house allowing light to pass through and to provide occupiers with unobstructed views.

The hall is open to the vast open-plan living room/dining-room/kitchen that will surely become the focus of family life and also leads to the two additional living rooms and cloakroom.

The expansive kitchen forms an integral feature of the main living areas and there is also a separate utility room.

On the first floor there are five good double bedrooms, all with en-suite bathrooms including the master bedroom suite that benefits from his and her en-suite bathrooms.

All bathrooms are beautifully tiled to strict tolerances and contain fittings from Villeroy & Boch, Hansgrohe and Crosswater.

All five bedrooms have large fully fitted and lined fitted wardrobe cupboards, while the master bedroom has 17ft of luxuriously fitted cupboards incorporating extensive hanging spaces, drawers and a dressing table – all discreetly fitted behind smoked glass sliding doors in the dressing area of the bedroom suite.

The garden runs down to mean high water from where one can launch a dinghy directly into the water at high tide.

There is a gate leading to the coastal path that also provides access to Westlands Hard giving access to the water at all stages of the tide.

Approached from a private road through electrically controlled gates, there are two areas of lawn and a water feature together with a large driveway that terminates in a turning circle around a mature magnolia tree in front of the house.

This is all screened from the neighbouring properties by a tall wall on one side, in front of which there is a newly-planted border of modern trees and plants, together with a feature fountain.

On the facing boundary there is mature conifer and laurel hedging and at the top of the garden there is a small newly-planted mixed coppice of substantial mature evergreen oak and cherry plum trees.

The large driveway provides extensive parking.

There is a burglar alarm, a camera security system around the exterior of the house and garage, all of which have a monitoring and a smart phone operational facility together with PIR security lighting.

The enormous three-car fully insulated garage has been built with cavity walls and to the same standard and specification as the house.

It is aesthetically appealing and provides a future owner with the opportunity for conversion into an annexe or to add a studio/further living accommodation above, subject to obtaining the necessary consents.

Price £3,500,000.
