Single-storey beachside home with generous parking, low-maintenance gardens and watercourse access..
Two double bedrooms with built-in storage in main bedroom
This detached two-bedroom bungalow sits a short walk from Chapel St Leonards village centre and sandy beaches, offering straightforward, single-storey living for downsizers or those seeking a seaside retreat. A long block-paved drive and carport provide ample off-street parking for multiple vehicles, while the easy-maintenance front and rear gardens and paved patio give outdoor space with minimal upkeep. The rear garden has direct access to a watercourse, an appealing feature for anglers.
Internally the home has a bright, dual-aspect lounge with a bow window, a kitchen open to a dining/day room with patio doors, and two double bedrooms with built-in storage in the principal room. The bathroom includes both a bath and a separate shower cubicle. Heating is provided by an LPG-fired boiler and radiators; the boiler and fuel arrangement suit properties off mains gas but should be considered by buyers assessing running costs.
Notable considerations: the property sits in a high flood-risk area so flood resilience and insurance costs are likely to be important factors. The house dates from the 1950s–60s, so while it appears well-presented, buyers should allow for age-related maintenance and inspect the condition of services and finishes. Broadband is average; mobile signal is excellent. Freehold tenure and a low council tax band add to the running-cost advantages.
Overall this bungalow offers practical single-floor living close to amenities and the beach, with strong appeal for downsizers or holiday-home buyers who understand the flood risk and LPG heating arrangement. Viewing is recommended to assess the garden access, parking layout and suitability for long-term occupation or holiday use.
