House For Sale £775,000
John Edwards & Co is delighted to present this substantial three bed detached bungalow in the heart of Offington, close to the vibrant Thomas ’A Becket and Broadwater Village shopping areas, with their cafés, restaurants, shop, and pubs, with easy access onto the A27 and A24, and within the catchment areas of several prominent local schools, including the Vale primary, and Bohunt, Davisons, St Andrews, Worthing and Durrington high schools.
The main property, which is beautifully maintained throughout, features three bedrooms, two large reception rooms, a further central reception hall, a conservatory, two bath/shower rooms, a large contemporary kitchen, a stunning and expansive garden, two separate courtyards, two garages, and multiple off-street parking, including separate parking for a motor home or caravan.
In addition, the property has the benefit of a separate annex, with its own living space, bathroom, and kitchen areas, and a further lean-to which has the potential to become a home office for those looking to work from home. There is also a substantial loft space, providing plenty of scope for upwards expansion (subject to planning).
This is a stunning and substantial family home in a hugely desirable area, and one in which we anticipate a great deal of interest. Viewing is essential to fully appreciate all it has to offer.
