3 Bedroom House
£800,000
33 Slipper Road, Hermitage, PO10

Description

Set in one of Hermitage’s most desirable waterside spots, this characterful cottage looks out across Slipper Mill Pond and towards the harbour beyond, a setting that naturally lends itself to life by the water.

The property falls within Chichester District Council, yet sits firmly within the welcoming community of Emsworth. From the front door, it’s an easy walk into the village centre, where a range of independent shops, cafés and public houses create a friendly, everyday atmosphere. The marina and local sailing clubs are also close at hand, adding to the area’s coastal character. Emsworth is well known for its strong sense of community.

The house is arranged for easy, family living. The sitting room is positioned to the front, where a bay window takes in the changing water views, with a fireplace adding to the feel on cooler evenings. A dining area sits alongside and works well for both everyday life and informal entertaining.

To the rear, a well-positioned kitchen/breakfast room with a vaulted ceiling opens directly onto the extensive garden, creating a natural hub of the home, an ideal space to return to after a day on the water or out exploring. A utility room and shower room add practicality, while a generous reception space linking the living and kitchen areas, currently used as a study, provides further flexibility.

Upstairs, there are two double bedrooms on the first floor, including one with particularly lovely views across the water, along with a family bathroom. The top floor provides a further spacious bedroom, enjoying an elevated outlook across the pond and towards the sea, with built-in storage.

Outside, the lifestyle continues. The front terrace is a sunny spot for a coffee or an evening drink overlooking the water, while the rear garden offers a safe and enclosed space for children to play and dogs to roam. With lawn, mature planting, patios for outdoor dining and useful side access, it’s a garden that works just as well for everyday life as it does for relaxed weekends at home.
