Garden and Grounds
With views of Chichester Harbour, the established grounds extend to over half an acre and provide an attractive setting with ample space for outdoor dining, recreation and family enjoyment. A particular feature is the boules court, which benefits from an installed French drainage system. The arrangement of the plot, combined with its position towards the quieter end of the private road, affords the house and gardens an excellent degree of peace, privacy and seclusion.
The property is approached over a tarmac driveway with a turning circle, providing extensive off-road parking.
A further notable feature is the substantial detached garage building, extending to approximately 860 sq ft. The ground floor provides two large garage areas, each measuring over 22 feet in length and offering extensive space for vehicles, boats, equipment or workshop use. Stairs rise to a sizeable mezzanine and store, providing valuable additional storage and potential for a variety of ancillary uses, subject to any necessary consents.
Overall, Ellanore House combines generous and well-appointed single-storey accommodation with harbour views, peaceful and private gardens, garaging and an exceptionally convenient position close to the harbour and sailing facilities for which Itchenor is so well known.
Of note, the property formally had approved planning consent (ref. 15/03704/DOM) to infill the entrance courtyard to form a large, glazed entrance lobby, a remodel of the existing rear conservatory and to replace the existing double garage with a games room/health suite with sail loft above.
