Unleash the potential of this two bedroom bungalow with a garage, large footprint and enormous plot which includes a big, tiered garden which rises to catch the sun. A rare opportunity to improve or develop, with double glazing already in place you could just restore it to its former, modernist glory with a lick of paint and new flooring or go up, out, or even start again on this substantial plot, STNC – and you can cruise along this leafy street for inspiration as several neighbours have created their own fantasy homes. Inside, a bright lounge dining room has plenty of room for company with a gas fire to enjoy and it opens to a sunroom which runs along the whole of the back of the house. At the heart of the home, the fitted kitchen is a modern classic in need of a little love, the utility/cloakroom has plumbing for a machine, the vintage bathroom has a contemporary shower above the tub and both are between the two large double bedrooms, each with fitted wardrobes.
Three minutes from one of the best primary schools in the county with a choice of good secondary schools nearby, Gatton, Hove and Preston Parks are all within easy reach making family life easy. Professionals have swift access to the A23/A27 and Amex Stadium as well as a station serving Gatwick and London (five minutes by cab), whilst investors will like its prestigious location close to the city centre and between the sea and the South Downs National Park.
Style: C20th bungalow
Type: 2 double bedrooms, 1 living dining room, 1 kitchen, 1 bathroom, utility
Location: Withdean
Floor Area: 1405 sq. ft.
Outside: Large front garden and terrace, extensive back garden
Parking: Garage, drive
Tenure: Freehold
Council Tax Band: E
This sought after road is lined with prosperous homes, some of which have been extended, and has a friendly local shop at one end and the gym and sports facilities of Withdean Stadium at the other. Built in modernist style for effortless, one level living, improvements include energy efficient windows, so just a little elbow grease would transform this happy house into an inviting contemporary home – or you could dream big and create a luxury retreat to rival the neighbours…! Stnc.
At the front, landscaping delivers an inviting approach with easy access to the garage which has power for a car charger, and a path which steps up past mature planting to a lit front door and sun terrace. Inside, the L shaped hallway is broad with cupboards for coats and access to a large attic, which gives pause for thought…
Stretching 8.196m from front to back, the living dining room is a sun-lit sanctuary. At the far end, glazed doors slide across to a spacious sunroom which opens to the garden, and an internal door connects to the cheerful kitchen at the heart of the home, so you have interesting options if you wanted to open the ground floor up stnc. Time is on your side as this kitchen has a practical layout with an integrated electric hob and oven beneath a hood – so it is functional, and there is a separate utility/cloakroom along the hall. Private within the property as they do not share a wall, both bedrooms are generous doubles each with fitted wardrobes, and the vintage bathroom has natural light and space to play with.
Outside, the northeast back garden is open to the south, and rises to look over the top of the house to the southwest. With steps and a handrail it is a lot larger than you expect once you start to explore, and has a paved area for dining, a lawn for play with a sheltered spot for a Wendy house beneath mature trees, and a wildflower garden at the back.
Agent’s thoughts:
“Opportunity knocks as this big, bright bungalow in an exclusive road and good school catchment area has a lot to offer as it is, including peace and parking, although on such a large plot it has exciting potential too, stnc.”
Owner’s secret:
“Living on one level is very easy and the bungalow is private and quiet. So close to the city space it is in leafy environs and you don’t feel overlooked – although you do feel safe as the neighbours all keep an eye out for each other. As a commuter, you can get to the station in 5-mins and be in London on time for work or if you need a car, you can be on the A23 or A27 really quickly. We have enjoyed everything about our lovely, light and spacious home, and we hope you will be as happy here as we were.”
