Stubbington, Titchfield area.

Small world - just down the road from where I am from and I went to Meoncross School in Stubington from 4 - 11. Brother lives there (selling his house at the min). I shall be driving down there tonight as it happens.

Osborne View a lovely pub and you're right on the sea front still.

Sounds great. Once the move is done I shall be happier - I bloody hate moving! But this is for the best I am sure!

I have no doubt I will walk the dog to the pub! TY for the tip

Stubbington's a nice area. Just up the road you have Lee On Solent which is great for dog walking, plenty of other smaller beaches around as well, HillHead, Meonstoke.
Good driving roads in easy reach as well, A272, Chichester to Petersfield, Petworth to Chichester, Goodwood etc.
I'm just up the road in Warsash, if you want decent football then try the blue part of Hampshire
Apologies to others for going OT.

Ha ha - agree on all except the colour of the team

I'll be in Warsash tomorrow (parents are in Sarisbury Green). Keep your eye out for a black Aston with PGA plates over the next week

Don't apologise - we can just rename the thread My Moving House Love In!

It is amazing the amount of people who have called me mad for this move. I have been here for 20 odd years and finally I am just peeping over to see if the grass is greener.

With all the other stuff to one side, I am positive it will be better for the kids. My daughter (who is 9) is currently in a school with a total of 55 kids - there are four other girls in her year group. She needs more/wider social contact.

I've been lusting after this for a while now. Everything I need in my life is here. 2 double garages, a boat house, an acre of lawn to justify a ride on lawn mower and some decent views for lazy bbq evenings. Just need to find 1.5 million.

Lovely spot but it does look like if you have a boat in the boathouse you can't use it until high tide unless you want to/are able to drag it? I may be wrong and I suppose on a tidal waterway you can't be in the water all the time unless you can manage the water heights. But yes not a bad spot to while away the weekends and evenings.

Retractable bloat slide, launches like Thunderbird 4.

Not a bad pad here, motor parked outside is quite nice too.

that house is very nice, they only thing is the mirrors on the glass, I would swap them for something else, really sticks out.

17th century? Not listed? Scope to extend? Still expensive though!

That's a fantastic property, I like that a lot.

Tally Ho!

I don't like separate buildings - I wonder if I could join up one of the barns to the main house?

[mattyn1]

For me, this will need re-decorating, and a deep study of flooding history but oh!!

Under offer so hopefully someone is doing their homework......

And then there is this -

This has a tunnel to join the two buildings together. Perfect? Almost.

Yes. Just yes. Not all the rooms need decorating to my eye, but each to their own.

Flooding to be checked, you're quite right.
