£855,000

An extremely rare opportunity to secure a spacious detached 3 bedroom property set within extensive gardens of about half an acre, adjacent to the Saffrons sports ground. The site also affords the potential to extend or develop.

This generously proportioned home has been in the same family ownership since it was built in the 1950’s. It has fine southerly views over the Saffrons, and benefits from a convenient location a short walk from Eastbourne town centre and the railway station. The house and gardens could be added to with outside seating spaces and the addition of conservatories and terraces. We also believe that a medium-sized 2 storey, or a larger three storey family home, would both be reasonable uses of the site. Examples of these potential uses are shown in the rendered images. The scale of the gardens means that there is space both for conservatories, and also for covered open-sided external areas, which would avoid the need air conditioning in closed glass spaces. The rear of the property has a semi-walled garden, ideal for fruit trees and vegetables. We also envisage the concept of a garage with further accommodation in the first section of the garden. The house is some ten minutes’ walk away from St Andrew’s, Eastbourne College, and Gildredge House. It is a short drive from Bedes School. Whether kept as a grand bungalow, or extended upwards, this is a unique property in Eastbourne.
