Description

Phil Hall Estate Agents welcomes to the market this delightful family home set within a private and elevated position in the highly regarded Upper Ratton area of Eastbourne. This substantial three-bedroom detached residence represents a genuinely rare opportunity. Individually built by the current owners many years ago, the property has never previously been available on the open market, and is now offered for sale for the very first time. Homes of this nature, location and provenance seldom become available, particularly with the added benefit of being chain free.

While the property would benefit from general updating, this presents an exciting opportunity for a purchaser to enhance and modernise a home in an exceptional location. The overall plot, private setting and generous accommodation combine to create a home of real distinction in one of Eastbourne’s most sought-after residential areas.

Upon entering the home, you are welcomed into a spacious and well-proportioned entrance hall, which forms the central hub of the ground floor and provides access to all principal rooms. The sense of space is evident immediately and continues throughout the property.

The main living room is a standout feature, offering impressive dimensions of approximately 31’07 x 14’03 and benefiting from a triple aspect, allowing natural light to flood the room throughout the day. With views to the front, side and rear gardens, this room offers a wonderful feeling of connection to the surrounding plot. A feature fireplace provides a natural focal point, while double doors open directly onto a side patio, creating a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living—ideal for both entertaining and everyday enjoyment.

Complementing the living room is a separate front-facing dining room, perfect for formal meals or family gatherings. This room opens into a charming conservatory, which enjoys pleasant views over the rear section of the garden and provides a peaceful space to relax.

Positioned at the rear of the property, the kitchen is generously sized and arranged in a long layout. It features wall-mounted and matching base units with work surfaces over, a breakfast bar area, and allocated space for a cooker, dishwasher and washing machine. While the kitchen is clean, tidy and fully functional, it offers clear scope for modernisation, allowing a buyer to enhance and personalise the space to their own tastes and standards.

The ground floor accommodation is further enhanced by a separate study, ideal for home working or as a hobby room, and a ground floor cloakroom, adding practicality and convenience.

Upstairs, the property continues to impress with three well-proportioned bedrooms. Bedrooms one and two are particularly generous and enjoy delightful elevated views across Eastbourne, reinforcing the property’s desirable position. The third bedroom offers flexibility, suitable as a guest room, child’s bedroom or additional office space. The family bathroom is notably spacious and fitted with a bath, corner shower cubicle, his-and-hers sinks and WC, making it ideal for family living.

The gardens wrap around the house, offering a wonderful sense of space and privacy. Mainly laid to lawn, the gardens are complemented by a selection of patio areas to both the side and rear, providing multiple areas for outdoor seating, dining and entertaining throughout the day. The elevated setting enhances both privacy and outlook, creating a peaceful and secure environment.
