Here are 10 reasons why homeowners love living here;

  1. Blue, pedestrian friendly spaces – Set around established lakes and waterways, Shopwyke Lakes presents an opportunity to be at one with the great outdoors. Residents can enjoy strolls around one of the two lakes, which feature dog walks and exercise trails. These lakeside walks and nature trails meander effortlessly round the development to create a walkable neighbourhood and promote sustainability.

 

  1. Beautiful streetscapes – The external finish of the homes at Shopwyke Lakes are sympathetic to their surroundings and the layout has been carefully designed around natural features to create a relaxed environment and picturesque neighbourhood.

 

  1. Easy access to town – Chichester sits just one mile away, which will be easily accessible via two new footbridges which will link Shopwyke Lakes to the city centre. Residents can walk or cycle in to explore the bustling cathedral city, with its quaint side streets and array of boutiques, popular eateries and galleries.

 

  1. Amenities on the doorstep – A new commercial space will feature at the heart of the development, making it easy to pop out for the basic essentials. Just over the A27 footbridge, residents are spoiled for choice with the Portfield Retail Park, home to a number of major outlets including M&S and John Lewis.

 

  1. Fun for all the family – When complete, facilities will include access to football and cricket pitches, a new sports pavilion and children’s play areas, encouraging families and friends to come together in open spaces for outdoor recreation.

 

  1. Community hub – Adjacent to the sports fields, a new community centre will provide a neighbourhood hub for group activities, social support and public information.

 

  1. Sensational setting – The coastal gems of West Wittering beach and Bracklesham Bay are within easy striking distance, offering fun for all the family. Ramblers and hillwalkers can enjoy the South Downs National Park, less than a 20 minute drive away, whilst water sports enthusiasts have the Chichester, Birdham and Emsworth marinas all nearby.

 

  1. Glorious surroundings – Just two miles away, the Goodwood Estate is home to one of the most beautiful racecourses in the country and hosts the world-renowned Festival of Speed, vintage Goodwood Revival and Glorious Goodwood events.

 

  1. Top schooling – An excellent standard of education is provided by both state and private schools from reception through to university level, with two primary schools conveniently situated within a mile’s radius.

 

  1. Transport links – The A27 connects to Brighton, Portsmouth, Southampton and the New Forest, as well as London via the A3(M).
