Description
Ideally situated in a semi-rural location on a private road in the sought-after historic village of Ovingdean. Named “Santa Monica”, this 1930s villa has much charm and character and is set back from the road with off-road parking for two vehicles at the front and a garden that ascends to the main house with pleasant sun terrace and hilltop views.
This substantial detached residence offers versatile accommodation with a sizeable artist's studio measuring 6.52m x 6.15m with a large skylight and its own separate entrance, three phase electrical supply and internal staircase to the main house. This space would easily convert to a separate annexe (subject to usual consents) ideal for an older relative or teenager's accommodation, or possibly a home gym.
The internal accommodation is currently utilised as four bedrooms, three reception rooms, three bath/shower rooms (one en-suite), two separate WCs, kitchen/dining room, boot room and home office. The interior is of a mid-century style with mostly black Crittall-style double glazed windows which flood the property with lots of natural light, particularly from the front aspect. The terraced back garden has steps leading up hillside to a well-stocked orchard/vegetable plot and garden studio surrounded by woodland - a haven for wild birds including woodpeckers, jays and robins.
Nestled within the charming village of Ovingdean which is surrounded by the South Downs National Park yet still within easy reach of Brighton city centre, giving you the best of both worlds, the seafront is also close by where you can take the undercliff walk all the way to Brighton Marina. The neighbouring Rottingdean Village offers an array of cafes, tea rooms, traditional and gastro pubs including the newly refurbished White Horses Hotel, along with amenities such as a butcher, hairdressers, dentist and Post Office. Highly regarded local schools are within proximity including Brighton College and Roedean School.
