About
Nestled within one of Winchelsea Beach’s most sought-after private roads, this spacious detached chalet-style residence offers an exceptional coastal lifestyle just a short two-minute stroll from the beach.
The property enjoys an elevated position with picturesque views across the Harbour Field recreation ground, making it one of the most desirable locations in the area.
The accommodation is both generous and versatile. A front conservatory entrance opens into a large central dining room, providing a welcoming heart to the home.
From here, there is direct access to a well-proportioned kitchen/breakfast room and, to the rear, double doors leading to a bright and comfortable sitting room overlooking the garden.
An inner hallway gives access to three well-appointed ground-floor bedrooms and a bath/shower room with WC, offering flexibility for family living or single-level occupation.
A real highlight of this property is the impressive first-floor bedroom suite, extending to approximately 38ft x 21ft.
This exceptional open-plan space features a large arched picture window framing beautiful views over the green, four Velux windows with sea views, and additional windows to the rear overlooking the garden.
Flooded with natural light, this room provides a tranquil retreat and could easily accommodate a bedroom and sitting area or even a studio workspace.
Externally, the property is approached via the private road, with a driveway providing parking for two cars and access to a double garage.
The frontage enjoys a good degree of privacy, while the rear garden—recently cleared—reveals a wide, level lawned area bordered by mature greenery, offering an attractive and secluded outdoor space.
While the property is in a condition that allows for immediate occupation, it would benefit from cosmetic updating, providing an excellent opportunity for purchasers to modernise and personalise the home to their own tastes.
