Well, there's no mystery why this home has made our collection. The apartment is right on the beach in East Wittering, so as you can see, it has great views of the sea from the private sunny balcony as well as most rooms. Yes, the galley kitchen is a bit compact if there are more than two people in there, but it's modern and well-equipped. If you tire of East Wittering Beach (unlikely we know), West Wittering Beach, with its views of Chichester, is less than a ten-minute drive. Otherwise, Chichester Marina is just over ten minutes away in the car, and Goodwood House is around a thirty-minute ride.

The prospect of a rejuvenating coastal escape fills us with an instant sense of excitement. And this home, nestled in the charming village of East Wittering, provides the perfect spot to get cosy and embrace the refreshing spirit of the sea. 

Set across three floors, the owners have designed this home to bring warmth and fun to daily living. Enjoy slow mornings in the sun-dappled living room, get creative in the fully equipped kitchen and spend lazy afternoons with a book by the fire. And when the weather draws you outside, the garden is a wonderful spot for balmy evening drinks and barbecue meals. Kids will also love playing in the tree house. 

Beyond this private sanctuary, it’s just a short walk to East Wittering beach as well as the local pub and shops, while Chichester Marina is less than a fifteen-minute drive away. So whether you’re hiking, sightseeing or simply enjoying the bliss of doing nothing, this home has everything you could need to experience the natural charm of the West Sussex Coast. 

Waves of Happiness      

Free Parking

Situated less than a hundred metres from the seafront, this modern home feels like a beach hut's sophisticated older sibling.

The walls are an instantly soothing shade of white, which are livened up by artwork in varying shades of blue and the odd house plant or two. This sense of brightness is also helped by the conservatory dining room, which acts as a suntrap on summer afternoons. You also have the option of heading out into the garden and enjoying balmy weather from the seating on the corner terrace — perhaps with dinner cooking away on the barbecue.

In addition to the aforementioned stretch of East Wittering Beach only four minutes' walk from the home, there are opportunities for rambles and birdwatching in the nearby Chichester Harbour AONB only six minutes' drive away. The cathedral city that lends this area its name lies only twenty-five minutes away in the car, too.

Nice to haves

Pack up your bucket and spades and hit the beach at this contemporary yet playful home located just a five-minute stroll from the unspoilt sandy shores of the exclusive West Wittering Estate. A home begging for an intimate group of family or friends to come together, there's ample space to all spill out here. When the sun shines, pad across the cool, polished concrete floor and slide the patio doors right back to let the sunshine in. Kick back with a morning coffee from the espresso machine on the terrace while children play in the vast lawned garden. Or join them for an impromptu game of football – there's goals ready and waiting for action. On cooler days, come together around the vast dining table and break out the home's board games – the underfloor heating will keep toes toasty. Challenge your troops to a round of table football. Or sneak away upstairs for an early evening bath in the master suite – a glass of something chilled optional. When the sea finally calls, the soft sandy shores and dunes are just five minutes away for castle making, kite flying, and, if you're lucky with the swell, surfing. Should tummies start to rumble, there's a cafe at the beach, and the village's gastropub and coffee shop are just three minutes from your door. Or take a stroll along the coast to East Wittering (or a four-minute drive) for obligatory fish and chips on the beach. 

Elephant's Breath

Buzzer / Wireless Intercom

Make yourself at home in this stylish penthouse on England's picturesque south coast. Bordering Chichester Harbour Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, you're perfectly placed to explore everything the Witterings have to offer.

Every effort has been made to create a lavish and luxurious apartment that doesn't lose touch with its laidback seaside setting. Inside, stylish wooden floors lead your eye towards the end of the open living space, where you'll find one of the two south-facing balconies – perfectly oriented to make the most of the summer sun and far-reaching views over the neighbourhood towards the sea.

Elsewhere, the main bedroom makes clever use of soft earth tones and natural materials to create a soothing space, while the second bedroom uses a gorgeous deep blue colour palette to help you unwind before bed.

Just five minutes down the road, make the most of easy access to one of the finest stretches of sand on the south coast. West Wittering boasts a Blue Flag beach, pristine white sand and top-notch facilities that make for an unforgettable break for the whole family.

Relax and unwind at this ecologically-minded stylish surfside retreat, just a five-minute walk from the Blue Flag-awarded sands of West Wittering Beach. 

On the ground floor, you'll find a minimalist open layout that's tailor-made for sociable stays, with plenty of space for everyone to sink into one of the comfortable sofas, play board games around the dining table and prepare family meals in the kitchen. Make the most of sunny days and step through the sliding doors and out into the garden, with its wooden deck and stepping stones winding between raised flower beds.

Its four bedrooms are split between the ground and first floors. The upstairs bedrooms are decked out in trendy OSB, which does away with the need for plastering and painting and adds a warm glow that only natural materials can bring.

The nearby beach is the undoubted star of your stay. However, there's plenty more to discover within a short drive. East Wittering is well-catered for when it comes to cafes, pubs and stocking up on essentials. Thrill seekers might like to book themselves a kitesurfing lesson, with kayaking and paddleboarding offering slightly more sedate options.

A little under 10 miles away, the pedestrianised centre of the cathedral city of Chichester is a pleasant place to while away an afternoon. Alternatively, listen to the roar of the engines at Goodwood's iconic motor racing circuit or the shouts of the crowds urging on their picks at Goodwood Racecourse.

Glorious views, fresh sea air and an abundance of coastal charm – the tranquil village of West Wittering makes it easy to slow down and embrace life in the great outdoors. And just a short five-minute drive from East Wittering Beach, this home provides a welcoming seaside sanctuary. 

From slow morning breakfasts around the table to lazy afternoons with a book by the wood-burning fire and long soaks in the bath, you’ll find everything you could need for a restorative retreat. And with the welcome addition of a barbecue and pizza oven, summer evening’s can be spent embracing family fun and delicious meals in the garden. 

Back inside, you’ll find the living room sets the tone for cosy movie nights while the snug bedrooms will ensure you awaken feeling refreshed and ready to explore. 

Days can be spent strolling along the seafront, braving invigorating swims, following hiking trails and admiring the beautiful views. You’ll find it's just a short walk (or drive) to the local shops, pubs and restaurants, while the historic city of Chichester is easily reachable by car too.

Sunlight Glow  

Only a short stroll from West Wittering Beach, this home provides the perfect base for exploring the West Sussex coast. We love the cosy, seaside-inspired design – think white-washed panelling, wicker furniture, and a cute window seat where you can curl up with a book. Family-style feasts can be rustled up with ease in the kitchen, while the patio is a great place to enjoy an alfresco digestif. As the bunk bed is only suitable for little ones, it's a better fit for families. Factor in the quick drive to Chichester and the proximity to the sea, and it's no wonder it caught our eye.

Enjoy a spectacular British beachside break at this gorgeous holiday home, based just a three-minute walk from the stunning sandy beaches of East Wittering. It’s set on a peaceful residential road, making this the ideal home for families looking for a stay by the sea. We love the open design that provides everyone with lots of space to stretch out and relax, with an extendable dining table for fish and chip feasts at lunchtime, as well as a dreamy lounge with large bi-fold doors out into the garden.

As soon as you step foot outside, you’ll be impressed by the pristine lawn that’s great for letting the kids run wild when it gets warm, and the rattan sun loungers that let you relax in the sunshine in the summer months. The hot tub is very inviting for spending serene evenings watching the stars come out while you relax in absolute bliss.

Summer strolls along the soft sand of East Wittering beach are just a short walk away from this modern family home. Spend the day catching waves at the surf school, paddling in the shallows or simply admiring the rainbow of beach huts from the sand. The heart of East Wittering, with its fish and chip shops, seafood restaurants and trendy cafés, is just a fifteen-minute dander away too. 

Back at this family bungalow, driftwood-hued cladding gives off an immediate beachy vibe. The back garden is a private suntrap where a wicker dining set sits on the astroturf and a hot tub awaits for a post-seaside soak. Heading inside, the open kitchen and living room is a social space, soothing in pebble-grey and white. There’s a second seating nook at the back of the house, perfect for a kids’ hang-out space. Plus, the playroom and bunkbed bedroom let you know this place has been designed with families in mind.

Fenced Pool

An outdoor swimming pool might not be the first thing you expect to see in the UK, but this coastal home is full of surprises. And perhaps the best surprise of all is it’s just a seven-minute walk away from West Wittering’s blue flag beach. Here, you can easily start your day with a morning walk along the sand, surfing the waves, or with a coffee at a seafront café. Perhaps an amble through the countryside is how you’d like to kick off your day – your private estate is nestled between fields, or you can head to the South Downs for a cycle through verdant valleys. 

There’s plenty to keep all the family entertained at home, too. Get on the Peloton, bounce around the trampoline, or have a game of table tennis. But it’s not all go-go-go here – sometimes all you want to do is read your book beside the pool, basking in the UK’s beautiful south coast. Whip up a pitcher of fruity Pimms to be enjoyed around the outdoor sofa, chatting away while the kids splash in the pool. Or better still – hop in the bubbling jacuzzi for total relaxation. 

If a jam-packed day has left you all tired, a quiet barbecue at home is the perfect way to round off the evening. If you fancy going out, it’s the ideal time to explore West Wittering’s pubs – there’s a great one nearby. Or you can take a twenty-five-minute walk to East Wittering for a change of scenery.

You might not expect to find a glittering outdoor swimming pool and tennis court in the UK, but this luxurious home aims to impress. Let yourself be wrapped up in splendour, nestled between manicured hedges and towering trees. You’re in your own little world here, although you’re just a five-minute drive from West Wittering’s blue flag beach. 

Let’s start with the shining jewel of the home – the garden. It’s the epitome of a charming British getaway, from the pretty foliage to the scent of sea mist hanging in the air. There’s nothing better than soaking up the south coast sun by the pool, getting lost in a good book, and occasionally taking a dip. When afternoon rolls around, watch the kids splashing in the pool, sharing a jug of Pimms around the outdoor sofa set. Or perhaps you’ll swap the wine for an energy drink and take to the tennis court.

Back inside, you’ll find a contemporary, sleek interior that welcomes families to spend quality time together. Whether that’s making use of the high-spec games room, chatting in the bright conservatory, or cuddling up in front of the fireplace with a good film on. 

Evenings are best spent preparing food together to be enjoyed around the grand dining table, or firing up the pizza oven for a sunny, alfresco dinner. If cooking isn’t on the cards, Chichester and its extensive selection of eateries is just a fifteen-minute drive away.
