The property
Shell Seekers is a charming detached beach
house, designed to take full advantage of its
bright southerly aspect and fine sea views. At
the heart of the house is an old railway carriage.
Approached via timber decking, the hall, kitchen
and drawing room are arranged so that views
of the sea are immediately apparent on entering
the house. An indoor pool has glass panelled
walls and doors to north and south, and on
the first floor, a superb suite of sitting room,
bedroom, dressing area and bathroom have
been created, with doors to the decked balcony,
again divided by a fireplace. There are stunning
views from the majority of the rooms.
Outside
Outside, a decked terrace and landscaped
gardens give direct access to the beach. To the
rear, the gardens include several ‘rooms’ and the
house may be approached either via a pedestrian
gate or a broad pair of timber gates onto a paved
area, adjacent to the double garage, with plenty
of room for a boat. A wonderful avenue, formed
by a Tamarisk clad pergola, runs the length of the
garden, leading to the decked area beside the
house, with a lawn adjacent. A greenhouse, with
planting beds and a vegetable garden with raised
planters lie beyond.
Location
Located between West Wittering and Selsey,
Bracklesham Bay has a shingle and sand
beach ideal for bathing, fossil hunting and
surfing. There is a thriving local community
with a community centre hosting events such
as fitness classes and a monthly film night,
together with a few shops and restaurants
nearby. An interesting variety of local shops
and supermarkets, banks, library and medical
centre, are found at East Wittering, less than a
mile to the west, beyond which will be found the
Blue Flag sandy beach of West Wittering. The
marinas at Birdham are situated about 4.5 miles
and Chichester’s mainline railway station and
the broad range of shopping, cultural and leisure
amenities, including the Festival Theatre, are
about 7 miles to the north. The RSPB’s newest
nature reserve, Medmerry, is found nearby and
there are lovely walks and cycle rides emanating
literally from the doorstep.
