About
This attractive and rarely available three bedroom detached house occupies a highly regarded residential position in West Saltdean, an area known for its peaceful setting while remaining convenient for everyday needs.
The property is well placed for local bus routes, nearby shops, cafés and restaurants, a primary school, Oval Park and the much-loved Saltdean Lido.
The house is entered through an entrance porch which leads into a welcoming hallway, with stairs rising to the first floor.
The main reception room is a generous lounge and dining area, enjoying a bright double aspect and centred around a feature fireplace, creating a comfortable space for both relaxing and entertaining.
To the rear of the property is a well fitted kitchen offering a good range of cupboards and work surfaces, along with space and plumbing for appliances.
From the kitchen there is access back to the hallway, a door leading through to the living room, and a further door opening into a useful lean-to.
This area provides additional storage or seating space and in turn gives access out to the rear garden.
Also on the ground floor is a good sized bedroom which is currently used as a work-from-home office.
This room benefits from a skylight, ample power points and sliding doors opening directly onto the garden, making it an extremely versatile space that could suit a variety of needs.
The ground floor accommodation is completed by a family bathroom fitted with a white suite, along with a separate WC.
On the first floor there are two further double bedrooms, both enjoying a pleasant double aspect and attractive outlooks over the surrounding area.
There is also a useful eaves storage area, ideal for keeping larger or seasonal items neatly tucked away.
Outside, the property is approached via a private driveway and a well maintained front garden planted with a variety of flowers and shrubs, complemented by a striking cherry blossom tree.
The front garden is wall retained and provides side access through to the rear.
The rear garden is a good size, level and mainly laid to lawn, with established trees and planting, a generous patio area for outdoor seating and fully enclosed boundaries with a screen of trees which create privacy.
Set within the garden is a smart garden office measuring approximately 5.3m by 3.2m. This space is fitted with power, lighting, internet connection, double glazed windows and double doors.
With its attractive vaulted ceiling and quiet position, it offers excellent potential as a home office, studio or even guest accommodation, subject to any necessary consents, and could be adapted to create two separate working areas if required.
The property is offered for sale with no onward chain, and internal viewing is strongly recommended to appreciate the space, setting and versatility this home provides.
