Property description
HAYLING ISLAND- LOCATION Hayling Island is situated 10 miles west of Chichester Harbour and is linked to the mainland by a bridge. Merrimede is located in a private cul-de-sac in one of S.W. Hayling's prime residential locations a quarter mile from the golf club and beach and six miles from Havant mainline station to London. The theatre is less than one mile away. The property lies down a secluded tarmac surfaced private drive and is accessed through a pair of wrought iron gates with parking for up to six cars outside plus two more in the detached double garage.
INFORMATION ABOUT HAYLING ISLAND The sandy four mile long Blue Flag beach is popular with swimmers and windsurfers and the golf club fronts the beach. The Island includes several sailing clubs, stables, multi-sports clubs or gyms. Shopping on the island includes three supermarkets, an open air seafront market once a week and a large number of smaller food and clothing shops. Larger supermarkets and more comprehensive shopping can be found in Havant six miles away. Parking is relatively easy with a number of shops also offering free parking. South West Hayling, with the sea to the south, the harbour to the north and the ferry to the west is in some ways similar to Sandbanks(but with property prices about ten times lower at present.) The opening of the A3 hindhead tunnel in 2011 has brought the M25 within about a 50 minute drive.
PROPERTY OVERVIEW This is a CHAIN FREE property. A substantial (4080 sq feet including garage) coastal villa with a self contained annex situated in a third acre plot with a narrow sea view to the Isle of Wight (see photo). The traditional appearance is combined with high tech gas heating and electrical systems and high insulation standards. The owner says he currently spends well under £1,000 per year for all energy (gas and electricity) bills.
The 3460 sq feet of interior space (see floor plan) is very adaptable to a wide range of lifestyles and requirements and includes a self contained annex of 590 sq feet with large boarded loft storage space above giving potential to convert to further dwelling space. Should the need arise the ground floor has also been designed to cater for an invalid or elderly relative having wide doors, bathrooms with space for wheelchair, level thresholds and accessible electrical outlets. 14 sets of patio or sliding folding doors allow immediate access to the gardens which are secluded by mature hedging and trees.
