Birdham Pool Marina, Chichester, West Sussex

Crows Nest provides a beautifully crafted retreat for a relaxed lifestyle perfectly suited to boating enthusiasts, would-be sailors or for those seeking something special away from everyday hustle. There is a pleasing open and airy ambience on the ground floor with the entrance hall leading through to the zoned kitchen, dining and sitting areas. A wall of glazed bi-folding doors extends the living environment to the outside, and the bespoke, modern stairway and contemporary stove create structural features. There is a good-sized dining zone adjoining the kitchen, which is fitted with sleek, modern cabinetry and stone work surfaces, integrated appliances, smart wall-tiling and a Belfast sink.

On the upper level, the rooms enjoy an elevated outlook across to the marina or countryside, with the two well-proportioned, vaulted bedrooms providing a restful setting. The bathroom is positioned between the two rooms and offers luxuriously-appointed fixtures with a freestanding, clawfoot tub and a separate shower cubicle.

Timber steps lead up to a decked platform with railings at the entrance to the property, whilst the rear decked terrace leads on to a further paved terrace. The property also has the benefit of two car parking spaces just outside as well as covered bike storage.

The property is tucked-away beside the calm waters of Chichester Harbour and Birdham Pool, in an idyllic, peaceful marina setting which offers a mix of pontoon berths and first class facilities for sailors. The Salterns Way from Chichester to West Wittering beach is easily accessible for both walkers and cyclists.
