About this property

Set within a highly sought-after residential enclave of West Saltdean, this substantial three-bedroom detached 1930s residence presents a rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a home of character, scale and exceptional potential. Although now in need of comprehensive modernisation throughout, the property offers generous proportions, a wealth of original charm and significant scope for extension or reconfiguration, subject to the necessary consents, making it an ideal prospect for those wishing to create a truly bespoke family home.

The accommodation begins with a welcoming entrance hallway which immediately conveys the sense of space found throughout the property and provides access to a convenient ground floor W.C. The principal living room is a particularly impressive feature, benefiting from a triple aspect that floods the space with natural light throughout the day. Double doors open directly onto the rear garden, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living and offering an ideal setting for both everyday family life and entertaining. The kitchen is positioned to the west of the house and enjoys pleasant light in the afternoon and evening, while to the front there is an enclosed entrance vestibule with attractive glazed windows, adding to the period character and providing a charming first impression.

To the first floor, the sense of space continues with three well-proportioned double bedrooms. The primary bedroom is a standout feature, enjoying door that open onto a south-easterly facing balcony. From here, there are truly stunning elevated views across Saltdean and out towards the sea, offering a peaceful retreat and a wonderful vantage point at any time of day. A family bathroom completes the first-floor accommodation.

Externally, the property is equally impressive. There is off-road parking provided by a private driveway, leading to a detached double length garage, an increasingly valuable asset in this desirable location. The front gardens are enclosed and provide an attractive approach to the house, while to the rear there are further enclosed gardens offering privacy and ample space for landscaping, outdoor dining or future extension, subject to the usual consents.

Offered to the market with no onward chain, this is a rare opportunity to secure a substantial and characterful home in one of West Saltdean’s most desirable residential locations. With its generous accommodation, breathtaking views and immense potential, internal viewing is essential to fully appreciate everything this exceptional property has to offer. Viewing is strictly by appointment through the vendors’ sole agents.
