Southview Drive, Worthing

Step Inside

Within a short stroll from the beach and Marine Gardens, the elegant 1930s facade of this detached period home instantly hints at the charm within. A landscaped walled frontage gives a lovely distance from passers-by, while a canopied doorway entices you into an enclosed entrance porch that keeps bags, shoes and coats neatly stored away.

A classic central hallway transports you back in time with the timber detailing of its turning staircase and picture rails while unfolding around you a brilliantly fluid and versatile layout is peppered with a wealth of original fireplaces that lend charming focal points to the reception rooms and bedrooms.

Beautifully lit by wide bow windows a spacious living room has a duo of porthole stained glass windows sitting to either side of a working fireplace. The more than generous dimensions create a great feeling of space that`s enhanced across the hallway in a separate dining room where a glazed door makes it effortlessly easy to step out onto a large patio for meals and drinks in the summer sun.

Sympathetically styled and designed with modern family life in mind, the excellent kitchen is fully fitted with Shaker cabinetry and contrasting countertops. An integrated range cooker and gas hob sit beneath a classic mantel extractor hood, a pantry has plenty of additional storage and the wrap-around layout provides a notable degree of functional workspace. A side door opens into an additional utility area with doors to both gardens and ample scope to store a washing machine and tumble dryer. A ground floor cloakroom is an added bonus for any busy household and the hallway has direct access to the integral garaging so you can unload children or shopping straight into the house when it`s raining.

Explore further and you`ll find a wonderful original stained glass window standing proudly over the turning staircase allowing a lovely flow of natural light to filter in. The abundance of period charm continues in a trio of double bedrooms all ideally proportioned for a growing family. Two bedrooms to the front vie for the status of main bedroom. Whilst one has more of those quintessential 1930s bow window, the other is delineated by an expanse of glazing and opens into an adjoining study that could easily become a walk-in wardrobe or luxury en suite. Lending a tastefully chosen contemporary twist to its period surroundings, a deluxe family bathroom adds an impeccable finishing touch with its bathtub, glass framed shower and sleek tile setting.

Step Outside

Step out from the dining room and you`ll find irresistibly easy to sit back, relax and unwind in an idyllic rear garden that has a fantastic measure of privacy and seclusion. A broad landscaped patio is ideally sized for al fresco entertaining and has ample room to spare for a hot tub or barbeque area. The mature greenery of trees, Buddleia and Wisteria border an established lawn, while a pretty summer house sits tucked away to the rear on a tiered decked terrace.

At the front of the property a walled landscaped frontage framed by flowering shrubs, palms and Hebe generates an inviting introduction. A focal point tree gives shade to the brick paved driveway and integral garaging provides secure off-road parking.
