In a quiet, leafy setting just 10 mins drive from the city centre this glamorous, 2 bed bungalow folds open to a sunny, spacious west facing garden and has a garage with power for a car charger and off street parking – and lapsed planning for a roof extension to provide two rooms and a bathroom (NB the weight bearing joists are already in place). In an exclusive location particularly suitable for families and professionals it is 2 mins drive from one of the best primary schools in the county with bus routes nearby for senior schools, and both Gatton Park and local amenities are also only 2 mins away. The roundabout to the A23/A27 and National Park is 3 mins and Preston Park’s direct trains to Gatwick and London is a 5 minute drive.

Inside has the wow factor with a hallway large enough for a discreet office station and ahead, a design-led kitchen breakfast room with a sociable breakfast bar bathes in sunshine and opens to both the garden and stunning living dining room. Spacious and inviting with a southwest corner of glass to bring the outside in, this elegant living space also offers a warm welcome with a wood burning stove. A central bathroom has a high end finish and the beautiful guest room is a comfortable, quiet retreat, ready to move into. Tranquil and private, and the magnificent principal bedroom has countryside views, designer paper and luxury en-suite shower room.

Between Gatton and Preston Parks with swift access to the sea, water sports, countryside of the National Park by cycle, bus or car with the gym and sports facilities (and restaurant) of Withdean Stadium 1 min by car, there is something for everyone of any age to experience. Well connected, both Dyke Road at the top of the hill and London Road at the bottom, will take you into or out of the city in minutes.

Why You’ll Like It:
This smart detached bungalow is on a large plot with dynamic landscaping at the front delivering an attractive approach with palm trees in a private garden large enough for a table and chairs and twin off-street parking which doesn’t block the garage (which has power)– although there is ample free, on street parking for parties, too. Skilfully extended and improved to create a luxurious yet comfortable home, eco- friendly energy management includes double glazed windows and doors throughout, and there is underfloor heating in both the living dining room and kitchen breakfast room.

Inside, the inviting hallway is tiled with ample space for coats and there is also a discreet area for a workstation, which could become organised storage if you decided to develop the attic.

Lined with windows and with bi-folding doors to bring the outside in, the kitchen breakfast room is a dream space, full of sunshine and skilfully designed for everyday- but also perfect for parties. There is a generous breakfast bar for friends to enjoy by the Classic 110 gas range, which could stay subject to circumstance, and the high spec finish includes sophisticated storage, sparkling working surfaces and both an integrated dishwasher and washing machine.

There’s an easy flow into the stunning living dining room where guests can relax in peace and quiet – and it is also very private. A sun-lit space to enjoy all year around with floor to ceiling glass panels to the south and a window by the dining area, the west wall of glass folds open to the spacious garden during summer for an easy al fresco lifestyle whilst in winter there’s a warm welcome thanks to the Country Kiln wood burning stove at the heart of the space.

An oasis of calm which is child and pet secure, the social area of the garden is level with the house and made private by fencing and mature shrubs and trees. There is lighting and power for parties and there is a bonus of a large, secret garden, also fenced. A blank canvas for you to make your own, it inspires ideas from play area to pools and timber cabins, stnc.

Returning inside, the central bathroom is a stylish retreat with a shower above the bath and at the front of the house, the first of the restful bedrooms is ideal for guests with calm decoration and holiday views over the swaying palms in the front garden. Next door, the principal room has a designer finish ready for your move and the chic en-suite has high end Bristan fittings.

Plans for the lapsed planning permission are available upon request. Weight bearing joists are already in place and to summarise, the plans show a spacious study over the kitchen breakfast room and a principal bedroom and bathroom above the two double bedrooms at the front of the house.

Agent Says:
“Withdean attracts families, professionals and international celebrities wanting a healthy lifestyle, good schools and privacy for their children and quick access to the city and airports, and this beautiful home delivers on all fronts.”

Owner’s Secret:
“The ground floor and garden are ideal for entertaining friends of all ages- and not every house has these wonderful picture windows and leafy views. Easy to live in with the luxury of space and good design which makes the garden an extension of the house there is also the potential to extend into the attic, stnc., and we have left the secret garden as it is so that you can develop it to your own taste. The quiet, friendly location also gives easy access to everything we need as a couple and as a family.”
