The original and skilled craftsmen who painstakingly created the detail of the property in circa 1880 would, we imagine, have been delighted to see it restored to what they knew it to be.The current owners committed to significant investment in this project and the result seems to have been worth it.. The list of improvements is lengthy and detailed, and briefly includes a complete new roof, new upgraded plumbing and central heating, total rewiring, all new windows, replacement bathrooms and kitchen and a complete cosmetic décor programme throughout. It seems nothing has been missed! They have very cleverly restored a beautiful period home to its former glory whilst incorporating modernity in exactly the right places with both blending together well. In 2020 a new detached annexe was built to the same excellent standard as the main house, and offers further family accommodation to suit your needs. This grand old house oozes traditional features such as; original fireplaces and panelled doors, high-level skirting boards, picture rails, moulded ceilings and architraves to mention just a few. Whilst all this character forms the overall charm of the house, the modernity previously mentioned allows for family day-to day lives to be somewhat more pleasant than it would have been for the Victorian family who lived here all those years ago.With just under 4,000 square feet of accommodation (including the annexe), there is room for a growing family, with the layout and design offering everyone adequate space to enjoy their own time away from the normal buzz of family life! This fantastic family home sits in one of the largest plots in the area and is within a short stroll of the water's edge and local beach, offering an abundance of leisure pursuits such as walking, sailing, surfing and kayaking to name a few. For racquet sport enthusiasts the Warblington Tennis Club is a few streets away. A couple of miles down the road is the charming harbourside village of Emsworth with independent boutiques, restaurants, coffee shops and two sailing clubs.Being situated on the Havant/Emsworth border, travel communications are excellent with access to the M27 south-coast road and the A3 to London within a few minutes of the property. If commuting to the capital is required, there are a choice of train stations, within walking distance, with regular services to London in 1hour 20 minutes.
