Located in the sought-after Withdean location, a generously-sized FIVE BEDROOM DETACHED FAMILY HOME set over SIX LEVELS with a delightful large REAR GARDEN, PRIVATE DRIVEWAY and DOUBLE GARAGE.

Positioned along a sought-after road in affluent Withdean, this impressive detached home with an integral double garage offers exceptional space, comfort and versatility. Beautifully designed to maximise its hillside setting, it enjoys lovely views over Withdean from all rear rooms. Spanning almost 2,750 sqft across six levels (small flights), the property includes five double bedrooms, two with en-suite shower rooms, and abundant storage throughout.

From the porch into the hallway and down a short flight of 7 stairs to the ground floor lies a substantial living space, including a bright living room with a separate adjoining dining room complete with engineered oak flooring, log burner with slate hearth and an entertainment area opening onto a hardwood Balau decked balcony with decking less than three years old.

The high-spec ‘Intelliga’ kitchen (installed three years ago) offers sleek handleless cupboards, integrated Neff induction hob and double oven, high-end AEG integrated appliances (dishwasher, fridge-freezer and extractor), Alusplash splashback, boiling water tap, pull-out larder and a bespoke semi-circular quartz breakfast bar overlooking the garden with plinth lighting. A matching utility room provides additional ‘Intelliga’ cabinetry, quartz worktop, built-in AEG washing machine, plinth lighting, sensor lighting, and houses the Ideal boiler (still under warranty). Also on this level is a useful airing cupboard with a dual-fuel towel rail and a downstairs W/C.

Down a few steps, the cellar includes a wine rack capable of holding 252 bottles and is currently also used as a photographic dark room.

Up a short flight of 7 stairs from the front door is a large galleried landing with a fully tiled family bathroom and three well-proportioned double bedrooms, each with fitted wardrobes. The principal bedroom features a fully tiled en-suite shower room. A further six steps lead to the guest suite, located on its own mezzanine floor above the double garage, complete with a walk-in wardrobe and fully tiled en-suite shower room with dual-fuel towel rail. The fifth bedroom, accessed from the galleried landing, features solid French oak flooring and extensive eaves storage, currently used as an extra living space/music room/fitness suite.

Outside, the hardwood Balau decked balcony off the lounge is ideal for morning and lunchtime sunshine, while the large corner Balau decking area enjoys sun from mid-morning onwards – both perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The garden offers a rare flat section suitable for play, is wonderfully secluded, and includes a 6.6 sqm storage area beneath the balcony with shelving and ample space for garden furniture and pots. The home also benefits from an integral double garage with an electronically operated door and a private driveway.

Set in a tranquil position, the home benefits from a bus stop at the end of the road providing regular services to all parts of the city and is an easy and pleasant walk of less than a mile to Preston Park Mainline Station. Preston Park Station offers up to eight trains an hour into London, with direct routes to Gatwick, London Victoria, the Thameslink line to Bedford, and West Coastway services to Littlehampton. At the top of the road, Dyke Road Avenue connects directly to A27 and A23, making travel in and out of the city stress-free.

The area enjoys easy access to Three Cornered Copse, Withdean Park and the South Downs. The regular 27 bus from the end of the road connects to all parts of Brighton, and the 77 route to Devil’s Dyke is also nearby. There’s also a useful local corner shop within walking distance. Nearby Withdean Sports Complex offers a wide range of activities, including a gym, athletics track, indoor and outdoor tennis courts and 5-a-side football pitches.

Highly regarded Westdene Primary School (recent Ofsted: Outstanding) is just a short walk away, with BHASVIC Sixth Form College (Outstanding) a brief bus ride from the end of the road.
