Description

Originally built in 1865 as a coach house and later converted into a chemist, this distinctive and historic home on Western Road, Littlehampton, beautifully showcases period architecture blended with modern coastal living. Converted to a residence in 1984, it now offers an impressive 1,500 sq ft of versatile and well-balanced accommodation, just moments from the seafront, marina and town centre.

The property enjoys a superbly central position, ideal for those seeking both character and convenience. Littlehampton railway station is within easy walking distance, providing direct links to Chichester, Worthing, Brighton, Gatwick Airport and London, making it perfect for commuters or weekend escapes. The nearby A27 and A259 road networks offer excellent access along the coast and inland towards Surrey, while Goodwood and the South Downs National Park are also within easy reach — perfect for days out or events.

Since 2021, the current owners have carried out a comprehensive series of improvements including a new boiler, modern kitchen with integrated appliances, interior redecoration, and a roof overhaul with added loft insulation. The result is a home that feels fresh, practical and ready to enjoy, while retaining all the warmth and character of its period heritage.

Inside, the layout flows beautifully across three floors. The spacious living room offers a comfortable and elegant reception space, while the open-plan kitchen/dining room forms the sociable heart of the home, opening directly onto the brick-and-flint walled courtyard garden. With its side gate access and continental feel, this charming outdoor space is ideal for summer entertaining or relaxing in privacy.

On the first floor are two generous double bedrooms, a study area with a useful utility cupboard (formerly a dressing room), a family bathroom and separate cloakroom. The top floor features two further double bedrooms, both with excellent proportions, vaulted ceilings and an abundance of natural light.

A truly individual home offering generous accommodation, rich history and an enviable coastal lifestyle — all within walking distance of the beach, station and Littlehampton’s vibrant town centre.
