4 bedroom detached house for sale

Kings Road

Deceptively spacious detached family home in a quiet setting close to the South Downs, having been extended to the rear to bring the roofline over and create a larger first‑floor area. Set on a good‑sized plot with a sunny westerly‑aspect garden, wider than most and extending to 84ft.

Impressively proportioned with four double bedrooms—two on the ground floor with a family bathroom, and two on the first floor, where the main bedroom has an en‑suite. The versatile living spaces flow naturally into each other, offering a sociable, bright and airy layout enjoying the westerly aspect, with double patio doors opening onto the garden.

Entering into a welcoming hall with stripped wooden flooring flowing through the reception spaces, the living room is a generous 23' x 12', making the most of the extension. This bright room benefits from the westerly patio doors which open onto the garden. There is an easy flow through to the kitchen, creating an ideal space for the dining area with room for a larger table.

The sleek, modern kitchen measures 17'11" x 9'8", thoughtfully laid out with white handleless cupboards paired with black wood‑effect worktops and colour‑changing ambience LED lighting. A neatly positioned sink sits beneath a side window. Built‑in appliances include a NEFF double oven and microwave, electric hob with extractor over, integrated dishwasher, and full‑height fridge and separate full‑height freezer located side by side. The kitchen flows effortlessly into the dining space and around to the lounge, creating a superb layout for entertaining or busy family life. Double patio doors open onto the garden patio, ideal for summer days and alfresco dining.

Bedroom two sits to the front in a secluded position, a generous double measuring 16' x 11' with a dual aspect overlooking the mature front garden. Bedroom four is also at the front on the ground floor—another double, well suited as a home office.

The modern family bathroom is an excellent size and features a stylish freestanding bath, a corner shower with a waterfall‑effect head, a vanity unit with sink, and a WC.

From the hall is an understairs storage cupboard which currently houses the washing machine. Stairs lead to the first‑floor landing, well lit by a Velux window.

Set to the rear is the main bedroom, extending to 17'6" x 11'7", enjoying an open westerly outlook across the garden from the Juliet balcony. The en‑suite is well lit from a Velux window and includes a bath with shower attachment, corner sink and WC.

Bedroom three sits across the hall at the front; another good‑sized double with eaves storage.

Outside

A particularly attractive west‑facing garden with an open outlook giving a secluded feel. Generously sized, measuring 84ft in length and around 35ft in width, it is mainly laid to lawn with raised planters and a variety of small trees and shrubs. A superb level family garden with a good‑sized patio leading directly from the house, providing a perfect dining area. Two sets of patio doors open from the house, making it excellent for entertaining and capturing the late afternoon sun.

A wide shingled side access offers potential scope to create an outbuilding or garage. Both sides of the house provide access to the front garden, which has a coastal feel with mature planting, offering privacy from the road. There is a private shingle driveway and potential to install an EV charger if needed.
