Description

A generously proportioned and substantially improved 4 bedroom detached house close to the South Downs and commanding views from this sought after Willingdon location on Ratton's borders.

The accommodation has been substantially enlarged and improved over recent years with new kitchen and bathroom fittings and the addition of a spacious master bedroom with bi fold doors to private balcony overlooking the attractively landscaped 90' rear garden which affords southerly views and backs onto scenic downland countryside providing potential access to the South Downs National Park. A viewing will convey the individual character and appeal of this enviably situated property.

Eastbourne town centre is only about 3 miles distant offering a wide range of amenities including the Beacon shopping centre and mainline rail services to London Victoria and to Gatwick.
