Redstack — on the Aldwick Bay estate, which is a gated community near Chichester — has great views. But it doesn't merely have great views: it has a beachside observatory to enhance enjoyment of its superb coastal setting.
It also has a summer-house, boat house and changing room within the environs of the main building.
And the main house is almost as lovely as the scenery. It has six bedrooms — three of which share access to a balcony, which feels like it would make the house the ideal shooting location for a French farce.
There are also four reception rooms, and a magnificent Tudor-style wood-panelled hall.
All this, plus it's own pretty garden with access to the beach via a gate.
What more could anyone ask? What? What's that you say? You wish it were close to, er, a Butlins? Are you sure? Yes, Bognor Regis — with pier, Butlins and more — is also nearby. So you're even set up on that front too.
Redstack is for sale via Strutt & Parker — see more details and pictures.
What else you could get nearby
Glorious period elegance at Merston, inland from the coast, but a little closer to Chichester and with easier access to the A27.
It's on at £2.8m, also with Strutt & Parker — see more details here.
If you've got your heart set on Aldwick but can't stretch you budget to Redstack, a smaller house on the estate is for sale via Hancock & Partners. It's smaller and less grand, for sure, but is a true blank canvas inside, and still has that easy access to the sea.
Plus it costs 'only' £1 million, which means you'll have enough left over to buy — ooh, let's see now — how about this nice little private plane to keep stationed at nearby Goodwood for jaunts across to Europe?
