Why you'll like it:
Superior in design and sitting on a prime piece of land between Brighton and Worthing, this detached house is a sight to behold. Having undergone extensive refurbishment in recent months, it is a stylish and comfortable home which takes full advantage of its southerly orientation and direct sea views. To the front it is clearly a smart abode, yet unassuming with a driveway and cool-grey features on a crisp white façade. Once inside, however, the true scale and beauty of the house becomes apparent.
From the porch, the entire ground floor living area opens up with your line of sight taking you right through the house and terrace to the sea beyond. The dining area sits in the foreground with space for a large table illuminated by pendants, and a dual fuel burner adds atmosphere to wintery suppers. Elsewhere, there is space for large and sumptuous pieces of furniture, and a wall of bi-fold doors open to the upper terrace which becomes an extension of the space when spring and summer come around. With a southerly aspect, the light is delightful, and the kitchen is easily accessible from the dining space.
Sleek, handle-free units have been paired with granite worktops for a refined and hardwearing finish, and within these, the gas hob, extractor, two fridges, freezer, dishwasher and oven have been integrated.
There are three bedrooms also on this level; two generous doubles and one smaller which would be ideal as a study. They both have en suite bathrooms, although one is cleverly Jack and Jill so guests can use it too. As expected, these bathrooms have a fine finish with luxury fittings, walk-in rainfall showers and chic vanity units below their basins. One also has a separate bath for whiling away the hours, and all are either part or fully tiled in stone.
Steps lead down to the master bedroom suite which encompasses the entire lower ground floor and also has access to the outside. The en suite follows suit with the bathrooms above, tiled in granite and with luxury fittings, and the dressing room leads through to a spacious utility which also houses the pressurised heating system.
The lower terrace has been decked and is sun drenched with space for al fresco dining and sun bathing, and steps take you down to the large garden area which will appeal to young children looking for space to play ball games. It is set to lawn with floral borders and has hammock areas where you can sit out to watch the sun rise or set.
Agent's thoughts:
Outstanding design and incredible views come together in this home which is simply breath taking. It really does need to be seen to be admired.
Owner's secret:
'This has been a beautiful home to live in and it is perfect for entertaining. It really comes into its own during the summer, although the views are striking at any time of year; as are the skies. The Perch is great for food and drinks and is just five-minutes on foot, and there are plenty of local amenities nearby too. We will miss it here.'
