Liverton House, Old Willingdon Road, Eastbourne, BN20 0AS

An exceptional detached family residence occupying a delightful mature garden setting in one of Friston’s most sought-after residential addresses.

Set well back from Old Willingdon Road behind a sweeping entrance drive, Liverton House is an impressive detached family residence built by Berkeley Homes during the mid-1990s and offering beautifully proportioned accommodation extending to approximately 3,000 square feet including the detached double garage.

The property has been significantly enhanced during the present ownership, successfully combining the generous proportions associated with its original design with many of the features expected of contemporary family living.

Improvements include replacement double glazed windows throughout, engineered oak parquet flooring extending through the reception hall, sitting room and study, together with the installation of a contemporary wood-burning stove forming an attractive focal point within the principal reception room.

The most significant alteration has been the remodelling of the original kitchen to create an outstanding open-plan kitchen, dining and family room, providing an impressive everyday living space at the heart of the house.

Further improvements include the installation of a discreet passenger lift serving the first floor, enhancing accessibility whilst also offering long-term practicality.

The first floor provides five bedrooms including two with en suite bath/shower rooms together with a family bathroom.

Whilst retaining much of their original specification, the bathrooms have been well maintained and the first floor has been tastefully redecorated and re-carpeted.

Outside, the property occupies delightful mature gardens extending to approximately 120 feet in depth and benefiting from a southerly aspect.

A broad paved terrace adjoins the rear of the house with the remainder principally laid to lawn interspersed with a variety of mature trees and established shrubs providing an excellent degree of privacy.

To the front, further areas of lawn are complemented by mature trees, shrubs and established planting which provide a high degree of screening from Old Willingdon Road.

A sweeping block paved driveway provides extensive off-road parking and leads to the detached double garage with electrically operated sectional door.

Old Willingdon Road remains one of Friston’s most highly regarded residential addresses, lying within the South Downs National Park yet only a short distance from the amenities of East Dean, Friston Forest, Birling Gap and the coast.

Eastbourne is approximately four miles distant and provides comprehensive shopping facilities together with mainline rail services to London Victoria and Gatwick.
