Crescent Drive South, Woodingdean, Brighton, BN2

Beautifully presented contemporary home with spectacular sea views.

Description

Built in 2019 as part of a select development of just four homes, and situated on a private road, 4 Cherry Tree Lane is a beautifully presented link-detached contemporary home. The property occupies an elevated position with spectacular coastal views to the south and has been cleverly arranged so that the principal rooms are oriented to take full advantage of this outlook. The house has the benefit of underfloor heating to the ground floor, while the first floor has central heating, supplemented by air conditioning units.

The Interiors are spacious with clean lines and modern style, with a neutral palette, and the layout strikes a considered balance between open plan living and the need for additional space. An entrance hall leads through to an inner hall, where there is access to a cloakroom. At the rear, the sitting room, dining room and kitchen are arranged as a single, light-filled room, with bifold doors opening onto the south-facing terrace and a further sliding door to the east, creating an excellent flow and space for entertaining. A woodburning stove provides a focal point, while the kitchen is fitted with white gloss cabinetry and pale quartz worktops. Integrated appliances include a Smeg oven and microwave, an induction hob with extractor above, a fridge-freezer and a dishwasher. A pantry sits to one side, providing useful additional storage.

Adjoining the kitchen is a versatile room, currently arranged as a study, with its own en suite shower room. It could serve equally well as a separate reception room or an additional bedroom. The ground floor was extended at the side in 2019 creating a full length utility/boot room with ample storage and a laundry chute from the principal bedroom; it has access from the front of the house and also gives direct access to the rear garden.

On the first floor, bedroom one is vaulted and has a tall south-facing window framing the far-reaching coastal view; there are fitted wardrobes and en suite shower room. The second bedroom also benefits from the same aspect and includes an en suite bathroom, while the third bedroom has an en suite shower room.

Outside
Outside, the house is approached via a landscaped private road bordered by established planting. A brick-paved driveway to the front provides parking for several vehicles, with additional allocated visitor’s parking. An electronic roller door opens to an attached secure storage area, suitable for bicycles.

At the rear, a paved terrace spans the house, providing ample space for outdoor seating, with a raised deck positioned to enjoy the outlook. Steps lead down to a detached home office, which is insulated and supplied with power. The lower garden level incorporates a water feature, a greenhouse and a timber shed, and is designed for year-round use with an artificially turfed lawn.

Agent’s Notes
1. The four houses own and manage the private road and contribute c£300 pa towards maintenance costs.
