96, Victoria Avenue, Hastings, TN35 5BT

A double fronted detached Victorian villa on the northern side of Hastings, recently refurbished throughout and offering four double bedrooms, three reception rooms and two bathrooms.

Houses of this period and footprint rarely come to the market in this part of town, and the symmetrical layout gives the accommodation a balance that suits family life particularly well.

A private front door opens into a wide entrance hallway with a period feel, stairs rising to the first floor and built-in storage.

To one side sits the lounge, with a bay window to the front and a feature fire surround.

Across the hallway is a second reception room, again with a bay to the front and a further window to the side, giving it light from two directions.

Both rooms work independently, which gives families the option of a quieter room away from the main living space, or a home office without sacrificing anywhere to sit.

The dining room sits to the rear with a feature fireplace, a window overlooking the garden and useful storage under the stairs.

Alongside it, the kitchen has been newly fitted with eye and base level units, worksurfaces over, an integrated oven and grill, space for a separate cooker, an inset sink and space for a fridge freezer, with two windows to the side.

A door leads through to the utility room, which has its own door out to the garden, and beyond that a separate cloakroom with a wash hand basin and part tiled walls.

Having laundry and a WC tucked away at the back of the house keeps the kitchen clear and the hallway free of clutter.

Upstairs, the landing serves four bedrooms and two bathrooms, with a loft hatch overhead.

The two front bedrooms both have bay windows, one enjoying views of the sea and the other a partial outlook, and one retains a feature fire surround.

The remaining two bedrooms sit to the rear and side.

The main bedroom benefits from its own en suite, fitted as a full bathroom rather than a shower room, with a panelled bath, shower attachment and screen, a floating wash hand basin with storage below, a ladder style towel radiator and obscured windows to both side aspects.

The family bathroom is finished to a similar standard, with a panelled bath, shower attachment and screen, a basin with storage and tiled walls.

Outside, the rear garden is private and enclosed and extends to a good size.

Multiple patio areas provide room for seating and entertaining at different points through the day, with the remainder laid mainly to lawn and planted with mature shrubs and trees.

Side access runs down both elevations to the front of the property, which is a practical detail for bikes, bins and garden waste.

The property sits within easy reach of Ore Village, where there is a range of everyday shops and services, and local schooling is close at hand.

Ore station provides links along the coast and towards London, and the surrounding area offers open green space and countryside walks within a short distance.

Offered chain free, this is a house suited to families wanting period character, generous ground floor accommodation and four genuine double bedrooms in a well-connected part of Hastings
