Set directly on Bosham Quay, this historic home offers exclusive, front-row access to Chichester Harbour, with uninterrupted water views and a private slipway for launching kayaks or paddleboards. You’re just steps from Bosham’s cafés, pubs, sailing club and coastal walks, with Chichester and Goodwood an easy drive away. Designed by the renowned G. Blair Imrie and T. Angell and built in the early 1900s, the home comes with various quirks and is best suited to guests who value atmosphere and location over ultra-modern finishes. All in all, this is an exceptionally rare waterside stay in one of West Sussex’s most picturesque villages.
