SPACIOUS THREE BEDROOM DETACHED HOME IN SOUGHT AFTER RESIDENTIAL AREA.
INTERNAL VIEWINGS AVAILABLE ON REQUEST.
Peacefully positioned on the western side of Preston Valley in Withdean, giving it striking views across the tree and roof tops of the local landscape towards the sea, stands this deceptively spacious, detached house. It has been a much-loved family home for the past 14 years, providing versatile living space with three double bedrooms and two generous reception rooms. Recently extended, the kitchen breakfast room is contemporary, and a huge amount of work has been undertaken to include a new roof, insulation and exterior redecoration. The rooms are filled with natural light from the south and the garden is a peaceful, sunny oasis surrounded by greenery. It is also in the catchment for several sought-after schools; Preston Park Station is within walking distance, and the A27/A23 is easily accessible should you need to commute by car. While this is a quiet residential area with the countryside close by, you are still well connected to the city and beyond. With so many attractive features, and being in such a favoured and prestigious location, this character home is sure to attract the attentions of many.
Set back from the road behind a neat brick driveway for two cars and a lawn with pretty planting on its borders, the house is smart with a contemporary feel due to its recent re-rendering and paintwork. Stone steps lead up to the door which is elevated from the street, adding to the sense of privacy from within. Stepping inside it is clear this is a beautifully maintained home with a wide and welcoming entrance hall with engineered oak flooring and space for a home office.
There are two double bedrooms on this level; both looking out to the front with exquisite views across the valley. Their windows are dressed in white plantation shutters for both style and function and the decoration is immaculate and homely. The walls have warm creamy tones while carpet is soft underfoot and there is ample space in both for double beds and freestanding bedroom furnishings.
These rooms share use of the family bathroom which has been modernised with natural stone tiling around a gleaming white bath suite. There is a rainfall shower above it and a contemporary vanity unit below the basin for toiletries.
Moving through the house, the true scale of the space becomes apparent. Recently extended, the kitchen is light and airy with a large skylight and windows looking out over the garden. This is a fantastic space for entertaining with a large breakfast bar island and stylish Shaker cabinetry in French-grey. These have been paired with granite effect worktops and splashbacks in teal metro brick for a refined and high-quality finish. The washing machine, dishwasher, dual ovens and gas hob have been integrated, leaving space for an American fridge freezer, which may be negotiable with the sale.
Accessible from the kitchen, the garage is integrated to the house and the current owners use it for storage. It would also work well as a home gym or work space and could be fully converted into a more habitable room if desired.
From the kitchen you move through to the living and dining room which was once two rooms but have since been opened to create one large, sociable space. There are clearly defined areas for formal dining and relaxed seating with space for the whole family to cosy up together in the evening, while the conservatory adjoining provides a lovely space for summer seating and dining.
This leads out to the garden where stone steps lead up to an immaculate lawn surrounded by manicures shrubs and flowers and a seating area which catches the last of the summer sunshine for alfresco dining. While it is technically north/west facing, it is elevated and receives the sunshine right through the day during high season. It is not overlooked and with the birds singing in the trees, it is hard to believe you are so close to the city.
Up on the second floor, the principal bedroom suite is a beautiful room where even with a king size bed and several pieces of bedroom furniture, the floor space is not compromised. A dormer allows for extra headroom and a wide picture window framing exceptional views across the city to the sea. At night the city lights sparkle and throughout the seasons, the trees are awash with colour and wildlife, forming a beautiful backdrop this room. This room also enjoys a wealth of built in storage and a chic en suite shower room, so you can tuck yourself away from the hubbub of family life and truly relax up here.
Agent’s thoughts:
This is a home you immediately feel welcome in. It has a great feel to it, and it is immaculate throughout so you can move straight in with ease. The views are also incredible and need to be seen to be admired.
