Set on a substantial, mature plot in tree-lined Lucastes Avenue, this detached 4/5-bedroom bungalow offers generous, well-proportioned living and clear scope for improvement. The ground floor provides versatile reception space—a bright living room, separate dining room, kitchen and conservatory—while the large dormer creates comfortable first-floor accommodation and flexible bedroom arrangements for multi-generational living or home working.
The long private garden, mature planting and driveway with single garage are rare for the area and are strong value drivers. The property is neutrally presented throughout and is offered chain free after being in the same family for over 40 years, making it straightforward to move into or to modernise and reconfigure to add value (subject to planning).
Buyers should note some important practical points. The seller states the heating is oil fed, while records include mains gas—prospective purchasers should verify fuel and servicing history. There is a known drainage issue; a specialist drainage survey and costings are available for review. The house sits within the Lucastes Conservation Area, so extensions or remodelling would require appropriate permissions.
This home suits families seeking space, privacy and excellent local schools, or buyers wanting a characterful property to update. With swift rail links to London and Brighton, proximity to the South Downs and a very large plot, the house combines lifestyle appeal with potential for enhancement.
