Mere Cottage is a beautifully presented detached period property, Listed Grade II, we understand built in the 1860's. The property has been refurbished and extended by the current owners and provides accommodation of immense character.

The ground floor offers deceptively spacious living accommodation with solid wooden flooring throughout the majority of the ground floor and exposed brick work and ceiling timbers. The sitting room has an open fireplace fitted with a log burner. The kitchen/breakfast room has underfloor heating throughout and is partly vaulted with three Velux windows. The kitchen is equipped with an excellent range of matching floor and wall units in traditional style with integral appliances. A stable door then provides access out onto a rear porch/boot room. There is also a ground floor cloak/utility room with underfloor heating.

On the first floor the main bedroom has a dual aspect and has built-in wardrobe cupboards. The second bedroom also has built-in storage cupboards and there is a well-appointed family bathroom.

The gardens of Mere Cottage have been very well landscaped and comprise of an area of off-road parking, a detached oak framed garage as well as a separate workshop. There are a number of entertaining terraces throughout the garden, areas of lawn as well as a detached home office/garden room.

Mere Cottage lies in a convenient position between Bosham and Emsworth within easy reach of the waterfront and from Nutbourne. There are excellent walks towards the foreshore, nearby Prinsted and Chidham. Southbourne, which lies approximately half a mile away, has a number of local shops as well as a GP surgery and pharmacy, post office and Co-op convenience store.

Comprehensive shopping facilities can be found in either Chichester or Emsworth. The railway halt at Southbourne and Nutbourne allows access to regular rail services whilst at Chichester or Havant to London Victoria in about 1 hour 40 minutes or London Waterloo in about 1 hour 25 minutes.

Sailing is perhaps the predominant pastime in the immediate area with a choice of sailing clubs on both Langstone and Chichester Harbours. Goodwood, to the north, has numerous events throughout the year including the Festival of Speed, Members Meeting and Revival meeting at its historic motor circuit. Goodwood also has its own private members club and hosts a full horse racing calendar.
