5 bed detached house for sale

Alexandra Avenue, Hayling Island PO11

An exquisite Edwardian detached property, rich in history and charm, situated in a sought-after location near the seafront. This impressive residence was built in 1905 and served as a summer residence for a wealthy merchant. Later, it transformed into 'The Priory School' and, since then, has been tastefully renovated into a spacious family home that retains its quintessential Edwardian charm.

The property boasts five generous double bedrooms, four of which are fitted with built-in wardrobes, and two feature ensuite shower rooms. The additional bathrooms include a family bathroom with a separate shower and bath, and a ground-floor bathroom with a bath and overhead shower.

The heart of the home is a well-appointed kitchen, bright and airy, with built-in pantries, a kitchen island, and Corian worktops. The utility room adds to the house's functionality, while the plentiful natural light and dining space make this kitchen a joy to cook and dine in.

The property features four spacious reception rooms, all boasting large windows that flood the rooms with natural light. Two rooms have fireplaces, adding to the cosy, homely feel. The first reception room provides a charming view of the garden and direct access to it, via a south-facing veranda, and it also extends to an orangery. The second reception room, separate from the first, features a picture window that overlooks the front of the property. The third reception room serves as a separate dining room, and the fourth reception room, the Orangery, includes a cast iron log burner and a large roof lantern with direct access to the rear garden, perfect for entertaining.

The property also features an almost self-contained annex, perfect for elderly relatives or potential Airbnb opportunities. Outside, ample parking space, a double garage, and beautifully maintained gardens wrap around the whole house.

'The Priory' is ideally located near local amenities, schools, and walking routes. For those who love the outdoors, the beach is just a stone's throw away, and the internationally renowned 'Seacourt Tennis Club' is within walking distance. With both Hayling Island Sailing Club and Golf Club a short drive away, this property is perfect for families with a variety of interests.

This beautiful property represents a unique opportunity for those who appreciate the character of a period property, but also want the comfort of modern conveniences. Having enjoyed over two decades of family life in The Priory, the current owners look forward to handing it over to new owners who will enjoy its character as much as they have.
