"With a white painted and tarred, weather boarded fa ade, Rose Cottage is an appealing property offering period character and vintage charm with features including exposed beams and brickwork, ledge and brace doors and a hallmark fireplace with timber lintel. The open ambience of the ground floor accommodation creates a sociable setting with a bay window enhancing the illumination in the cosy sitting room which is centred around a decorative brick chimney with rustic stone hearth. The ancient timbers of the post frame form a subtle divide to the adjoining kitchen dining area, where a stable door provides a route to the outside. Fitted with wall and base level Shaker style cabinetry, including display shelf units, the kitchen features a Belfast sink and authentic terracotta tiling to splashbacks. There is ample space for a dining area providing a spot to host family and friends.

The paved and brick pathway provides passage through the secluded garden to the stone steps at the entrance doorway, with an area of lawn to one side. There are planted beds to the two fenced boundaries with floral shrubs and perennial plants creating an attractive display for the outdoor haven. Beyond the bounds of the garden and right on the doorstep, the harbour and village green area provide walking and bird watching activities in a beautiful shore side environment.

Rose Cottage is situated moments from the harbour in the highly regarded sailing village of Bosham which offers a beautiful quayside, idyllic harbour with lovely coastal walks and stunning period architecture.
