5 bedroom detached house

Bennett Drive is a quiet tree lined home to some of the city's most desirable and prestigious family homes. The location is fantastic and no wonder the area is in such high demand. Both Hove and Preston Park stations with direct trains to London are just a mile away. There are numerous high performing schools near by. Hove park with all manner of sports and recreational activities available is literally just round the corner . It's home to lots of sports, plenty of tennis courts, a great cafÈ and a popular Saturday morning Park Run - a great way to get or stay fit.

Before we venture inside there's much to appreciate on the exterior. The grey slate roof and smooth white render give a contemporary feel to this extended and modernised home. The front garden has a neat lawn area, shrub beds and brick retaining walls The brick paved drive can cater for many cars nose to tail. Inside the standout room is the sizeable kitchen/dining/family room. An open plan masterpiece with full width bi-fold doors to the patio and lawned garden. Light flows effortlessly thanks to that wall of glass and a large domed skylight. Marble tiled floors and low voltage downlighters add to the quality finish. The kitchen is blessed with large white granite work tops and lots of white high gloss low and eye level units. The sizeable island unit is home to the sink and drainer along with lots of storage, a wine fridge and a significant breakfast bar. There is space for an American style fridge freezer. The 5 ring gas hob has a designer extractor fan above. The room is so vast there is plenty of room for soft seating and can host the most decadent of dining tables.

The living room is another impressive living space spanning the full width of the house. Wooden floors, large windows and plenty of space for sofas makes for a comfortable family environment. An attractive stone fireplace surround with gas coal effect fire in a marble hearth. There is room for another dining area if so desired. It has double doors out to a South and West facing balcony / sun deck. Also on the ground floor is a large utility room, that much needed downstairs WC and a good sized Office / Study.

The master bedroom suite is in keeping with the high specification and excellent design that predominates. A large picture window delivers great roof top views down to the sea. It's an impressive bedroom with a good sized dressing room that leads to a contemporary en suite shower room. Also on the first floors are Bedrooms 3, 4 and 5. Bedroom 3 is a large double at the rear of the house overlooking the back garden. It has a built in wardrobe and an en suite shower room. Next door is Bedroom 5 again with a built in wardrobe. Moving down the landing is the chic family bathroom which is tiled in a sumptuous chocolate brown. Bedroom 4 is to the front of the building and is another good sized double. Bedroom 2 is on the second floor. More wonderful views can be enjoyed from this vantage point. It's home to another en suite shower room (so that's 3 ensuites &1 family bathroom all told).
