Situated in Grand Avenue, this impressive and imposing seven bedroom, seven reception room character residence in need of modernisation and refurbishment located close to Worthing seafront, west of Worthing's town centre.

Features include vaulted reception hall spanned by balcony’s to two levels, seven bedrooms, eight reception rooms and four bathrooms. Externally there are South and West aspect gardens, private driveway and double garage.

Michael Jones & Co are delighted to bring to the market this unique, Grade II listed converted barn which was originally constructed in Dunsfold Surrey in 1728 then moved to Worthing in 1926. The property requires modernisation and refurbishment whilst retaining a wealth of character and period features.
The attached garage and annex-style addition was added some years later before being destroyed by fire in 2023 thankfully not affecting the main building apart from some minor smoke and water damage.
The property could also offer commercial appeal (subject to planning permission) e.g. Wedding venue, boutique air B’n’B, surgery, hotel etc.
The property is being sold with two additional titles at the side and rear of the property with a view of creating a small plot with driveway space which is unlikely to be large enough to develop, however we would urge you to make your own investigations in this regard.
Beyond the obvious kerb appeal, features include an incredible vaulted reception hall spanned by balconies to two levels, seven bedrooms, seven reception rooms and three bathrooms. There are also arched doorways, herringbone brickwork, impressive fireplaces and thick exposed oak timbers and beams.
Externally there are Southerly and Westerly aspect gardens, private double driveway and double garage.
An early inspection comes highly recommended to avoid disappointment and to fully appreciate the features of this wonderful period home.

Agents Note:
The single-storey side extension around the garage is fire-damaged and as such is likely to be problematic raising finance. We advise you speak to your mortgage/financial adviser before committing to buy.
