Elevate your seaside getaway in this gorgeous home, mere steps from the glittering West Sussex coastline. Here, you can unwind in the quintessential coastal town, making the holiday of your dreams come to life with morning swims, lunchtime beach picnics, afternoon surfs, and evening barbecues at home. The contemporary, bright white façade is a fitting first impression of this home. The interior is sleek and modern, while maintaining a warmth that makes for lovely family stays. The kitchen is the heart of the home, where you can gather around the breakfast bar for your morning debrief of the day’s plans, prepare lunches of pasta salads together, or tuck into a home-cooked dinner around the dining table. While the interior is wonderfully welcoming, we imagine you’ll want to spend most of your time in the sunny garden. A high fence promises complete privacy, with the only resemblance of your ideal location being the scent of sea mist hanging in the air. From invigorating coffees on the outdoor sofa to cocktails at dusk, you’ll love spending your days here. If you’re not in your garden, you’ll be making the most of your coastal location. Try out surfing, kite surfing, kayaking, paddle boarding, and more,... before enjoying lunch at the seaside café. There are some dining options here in Bracklesham Bay, but you’ll find a wider selection in the nearby village of East Wittering – including a couple of great traditional pubs.
