Summary - 65 Lenham Avenue, Saltdean BN2 8AG
3 bed 2 bath Detached
Spacious three-bed with large garden, garage and extendable potential.
Panoramic South Downs and sea views from elevated position
Elevated above Saltdean, this substantial three-bedroom detached home combines mid‑century character with strong family-focused space. The property benefits from panoramic views over the South Downs and glimpses of the sea, a large west-aspect rear garden with two patios and a summer house, off-street parking and a garage. An additional ground-floor office and flexible living areas suit home working and growing families.
Internally the layout is roomy and practical: an open-plan kitchen/dining/lounge with a bay window, two ground-floor bedrooms (one with integrated shower and basin), a separate WC and family bathroom, plus a generous first-floor master with ensuite and eaves storage. Double glazing and a gas central-heating system are in place, but the EPC rating is D and the house—built in the 1950s–60s—may benefit from targeted energy and cosmetic improvements.
The large plot and elevated position present clear potential to extend (subject to planning and consents), making this attractive for buyers seeking extra space or value-add opportunities. Immediate local advantages include very low local crime, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, easy access to bus routes, Saltdean Lido and sports facilities, and strong nearby primary schools.
Notable practical points: council tax is above average, planning permission will be required for extensions, and some modernization or energy-efficiency work may be needed to improve the EPC. Overall this home suits families looking for space, views and scope to create a long-term family residence close to Brighton and the South Downs.
