Old Fort Road, Shoreham-by-Sea, West Sussex, BN43

A rare opportunity to secure a detached four bedroom home in a prime position directly opposite Shoreham Beach.

Located directly opposite the beautiful Shoreham Beach, a protected nature reserve, this fabulous four bedroom detached home with separate garage and home office sits proudly on a generous corner plot overlooking the sea. It is easy to see why Old Fort Road is such a sought after address.

Whether you are searching for a forever family home or a coastal retreat to escape to during the holidays, this property will not disappoint. Offering just shy of 1,700 sq ft, there is no shortage of space. The house is surrounded by gardens to the front, side and rear, benefits from off street parking for at least four cars, a garage, and can be accessed from both sides of the plot.

Well presented and entirely functional as it stands, the property also offers exciting scope to upgrade. You might choose to refresh with new décor, kitchen and bathrooms, or perhaps take inspiration from the striking homes nearby and create something truly special. Several neighbouring properties have been transformed into stunning beachside residences, and the house next door is a great example of what can be achieved.

The ground floor features a spacious entrance hall that sets the tone the moment you step inside. There is a bright and generous reception room, a family kitchen, a study or fourth bedroom, and a downstairs WC. Upstairs you will find a large landing, three double bedrooms, one with en suite, and a family bathroom. A loft hatch provides access to an impressive loft space. Most rooms are dual aspect, filling the house with natural light and offering lovely views towards the sea.

For anyone drawn to watersports, Shoreham Beach is a dream location. The garage and separate utility room provide excellent storage for paddleboards, wetsuits and everything in between. You can be on the beach in under two minutes and, speaking from experience, living this close to the sea is something rather special.

Old Fort Road itself is wide and peaceful, lined mainly with detached homes. A boardwalk runs east and west along the beach. Head west and within ten minutes you will reach the footbridge into town, where you will find a great selection of independent shops, restaurants, pubs and convenient transport links by train and bus. Continue along to the historic Shoreham Fort and you can take in magnificent views across the sea towards Brighton and inland to the South Downs.

By car, Brighton is approximately fifteen minutes to the east and Worthing fifteen minutes to the west. An excellent local primary school is located on the beach itself, just a ten minute walk from the house. Secondary schools and nurseries are also close by in town, including the popular Shoreham Academy.
