House For Sale £550,000
Luxurious and quiet, this three bedroom house is ideal if you'd like a large south west garden, a garage and a peaceful night's sleep five minutes from the sea and 10 minutes from Brighton. Inside, the glamorous, open plan ground floor's ideal for entertaining and it's in the popular area of Saltdean, sought after by professionals, families and investors as there's a big park, good primary school, local amenities and good transport links. Balancing the convenience of the city with a friendly community, it also offers the best of the south coast with the beach at the bottom of the hill, Brighton's Marina's a 10 minute drive and Castle Hill Nature Reserve is literally at the top of the street.
With its leafy location and peaceful gardens, it's easy to forget just how convenient this location is with Brighton, Lewes and Gatwick all commutable. Set back from a peaceful, tree lined street by a neat front garden with a garage to the left and path to the right, this house has been extended to create a fabulous home with big energy efficient windows – so you know that sunny in the summer, it'll be a cosy haven during winter too.
Inside, the oak floor of the welcoming lobby continues into a spacious and sophisticated ground floor. L shaped, there's plenty of room for subtle zoning and the room's bathed in sunshine as it spans the depth of the building with windows framing green views at the front, a vaulted sky light and a south west wall of mainly glass which brings the garden in. Safely tucked away from the tall French doors which open to the sun terrace, the kitchen won't date with a classic combination of white units and dark, easy wipe surfaces. There's a glamorous breakfast bar where friends or family can join you as you cook, and with two levels of lighting, you can choose the mood. The dishwasher's integrated as is the smart glass and steel cooker hood, and the fabulous multi fuel range could stay, subject to circumstance and negotiation. As you'd expect of this polished home, there's a separate utility room.
Outside, the broad garden's pet and child friendly as it's private, secure and level with the house. There's a decked sun terrace perfect for parties and a lawn bordered with raised beds, scented by herbs and great for growing vegetables and fruit.
Returning inside, there's a bathroom on the ground floor to limit the ingress of sand/mud which has both a shower attachment and a Mira Sprint power shower above the shaped bath, storage beneath the sink and a heated rail for towels.
Upstairs, the landing has access to an attic and there are two light and airy double bedrooms at the front, each ready to move into with new carpet, calm décor and restful, open views. A useful, central cloakroom has natural light and running along the back of the house, the master suite is also ready for your move: It has a whole wall of wardrobes with stylish oak and mirrored doors, a chic en suite shower room with a dual head shower system and a south west wall lined with windows which when open, fill the room with birdsong.

Owner's secret
"The house is bright and easy to live in. We've enjoyed the sunny garden, friendly neighbours and it's worked well for the family as it's close to the sea, school, park and near buses, but also for us as a couple as it's close to local restaurants as well as within a taxi ride of Rottingdean."
