Set in the leafy residential area of Saltdean, close to the green and rolling hills of the South Downs, this sweet semi-detached bungalow is brimming with potential to add considerable value in an area where planning permissions are easier to come by. As it stands, it has three double bedrooms and an east to west aspect, culminating in a charming rear garden which catches the last of the summer sunshine on the sun terrace from which you can enjoy exceptional views over the countryside.

To the front is parking for two cars on the drive, alongside an area of lawn bordered by spring flowers. Stepping inside, the entrance hall feels like a room on its own with a vast amount of space for sideboards, hanging coats or seating to take shoes on and off.

To the left and right are two double bedrooms with an easterly aspect looking out to the peaceful street. Bedroom three mirrors the second but with open, garden views, and all sharing the same neutral decoration of fawn carpet paired with white walls providing ample space for double beds and freestanding wardrobes. The principal bedroom also benefits from an en suite shower room, while bedrooms two and three have easy access to the family bathroom next door. Tiled in natural stone porcelain around the bath with shower over it, both bathrooms are in fine condition, but modernisation would add value. With over a third of the total footprint, the main reception and open plan kitchen are a great size with space for families to come together in the evening, relaxing on comfortable furnishings and eating together around the table. The kitchen provides a huge amount of storage in white handle-free cupboards alongside an integrated oven and hob, leaving space for a washing machine, dishwasher and a tall fridge freezer.

During summer, French doors open to the sun terrace which becomes a natural extension of the room for alfresco drinks and dinners. The property sits on a hill giving it incredible, far-reaching views over the local landscape to the hillside opposite. Facing west, the sunsets are stunning, to be enjoyed late into the evening during high season. A few steps lead down to the garden which is secure and easy to maintain ideal for little children and pets to play. There are flower beds for planting and tall fences for climbing florals, while an area of decking is ideally positioned for a hot tub or paddling pool.As many homes in the area have shown, these properties are hugely versatile with potential to build up into the loft space creating a chalet house with two further bedrooms and another bathroom if need be all worth considering for larger families looking to invest in the area.
