About this property

This generously proportioned family home is in a wonderfully elevated position on one of Ovingdean's most popular roads, with far-reaching sea views and Beacon Hill Nature Reserve to the south!

Presenting a fantastic opportunity for personalisation, this detached four-bedroom is in a prime position facing south-west with fabulous, far-reaching views over the coastal Downs landscape and the sea beyond. The house requires modernisation throughout, so can be remodelled according to your wishes and requirements.

The internal proportions are very good and large windows provide masses of natural light, as well as framing fabulous sea and countryside views to the front. Off the living room at the front of the house is a balcony, whilst at the rear there is a sun room, both offering lovely relaxing spaces to sit and enjoy the sunshine.

The accommodation itself is arranged over two floors, with the living spaces on the raised ground floor. A porch opens to the entrance hall where there is a cloakroom with WC and a useful storage cupboard. The sitting and dining room are open plan, with sliding doors from the dining area to both the kitchen, which is fitted with a range of wall and base units, and the sun room to the rear, which has its own glazed doors opening onto the rear garden. There is also a large utility room adjacent to the rear dining room space, to house the laundry and serve as a drying room, but also offers overflow space for storage.

Upstairs there are four bedrooms, three of which have built-in storage and two of which have sea views. The principal bedroom has an en suite bathroom, while a second double room has a walk-in wardrobe with basin and vanity unit. There is also a family bathroom.

** This property is for sale by the Modern Method of Auction, meaning the buyer and seller are to Complete within 56 days (the "Reservation Period"). Interested parties’ personal data will be shared with the Auctioneer (iamsold).

If considering buying with a mortgage, inspect and consider the property carefully with your lender before bidding.

A Buyer Information Pack is provided. The buyer will pay £300.00 including VAT for this pack which you must view before bidding.

The buyer signs a Reservation Agreement and makes payment of a non-refundable Reservation Fee of 4.20% of the purchase price including VAT, subject to a minimum of £6,000.00 including VAT. This is paid to reserve the property to the buyer during the Reservation Period and is paid in addition to the purchase price. This is considered within calculations for Stamp Duty Land Tax.

Services may be recommended by the Agent or Auctioneer in which they will receive payment from the service provider if the service is taken. Payment varies but will be no more than £450.00. These services are optional. **

Outside
A tarmac driveway provides off-street parking and leads down to the integral garage under the house. The space presents further opportunity for development (subject to permissions), as the neighbouring house has done. There is a raised front garden alongside the drive with a path leading to the front porch. The rear garden is a good size and has plenty of scope to be made more of. It is mostly lawned with mature trees around the boundary and a summer house in good condition.

Situation
The village of Ovingdean is a charming coastal community adjacent to well-known Rottingdean. The seafront prom is just 0.7 miles away, perfect for Undercliff walks to the Marina, Brighton and Hove, whilst lovely countryside walks along the ridge to Rottingdean windmill and beyond are literally at the end of the road. Ovingdean Village Store is less than half a mile away, with more extensive shopping on Rottingdean high street under 1 mile distant. Brighton city centre and Brighton train station are 4.6 miles away, and the A27/A23 to London and the east and west are easily accessible by car. Nearby schools include Rudyard Kipling primary, Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic School and Longhill High School, with private schools including Brighton College and the well-regarded Roedean both under 3 miles distant.
