4 bedroom detached house for sale

Beautifully maintained and deceptively spacious, this four-bedroom detached bungalow sits in a prestigious location tucked away in Goldstone, bordering Hove Park. The rooms are generously proportioned with the sunny reception room, kitchen dining room and conservatory leading out to a manicured, south easterly rear garden.

It also boasts off street parking for three cars and an integrated garage/workshop – ideal for storage, parking or conversion.

There remains scope for further modernisation and renovation, however, to put your own stamp on the place, and the rooms are hugely versatile to suit any family’s needs.

The A23 and A27 are two-minutes away for those commuting by car, or Hove Station is a ten-minute cycle, so this home will appeal to many.

Stepping inside, it is deceptively spacious with a welcoming entrance hall leading through the vast depth of the property to the garden beyond. The entrance hall is particularly wide with light walls and engineered oak floors which flow into the bedrooms on this floor and the living room to the rear. To the front of the house, looking out to the peaceful street via a wide shuttered window, the principal bedroom is a fantastic size. Even with a king size bed and several pieces of bedroom furniture, the floor space is not compromised, and dark walls bring a homely feel to the space, ideal for relaxing at the end of the day and drifting off to sleep. The en suite shower room is equally stylish and modern, with a roomy cubicle and a tall, heated rail for your towels.

Across the hall, there is access to the integrated garage which would offer the ideal space for a gym or workshop as there is ample parking on the drive.

They are double rooms with a smart neutral decoration and built-in wardrobes, while the main bathroom is classic in white with a shower over the bath.

The sitting room is perfectly spacious with a summer extension in the conservatory garden room. There is ample space for dining, relaxed seating and separate spaces for family members not to feel on top of one another. Within the kitchen there is a vast amount of
storage in streamlined white cabinetry fitted with every appliance you would need, including a wine fridge – party perfect. This is a room for family and friends to come together for either a meal or drinks which can spill outside to the garden during the summer months.
