THE RED HOUSE

The Red House has an enviable position looking over the water to the centre of Bosham, near Chichester on the South coast. 

Built in the 1930’s to a design reputably by a pupil of Lutyens, the house had been requisitioned in the war and then became a school sanatorium, before finally being used as a family house.

Very little had been done to the property over the years so there was a real need to update the house to 21st century family living. This involved opening up the ground floor to provide a layout centred around the kitchen - designed by Johnny Grey - as well as extending the house to connect with the existing garage outbuilding. 

Integral with the redesign of the building came a scheme for the garden, including a Lutyens inspired pergola leading to a new home office and boat house.
