Occupying a prominent South Woodingdean position overlooking a green space, this extended mid-century detached house offers flexible accommodation across multiple levels. The living areas are bright and well presented, with large glazed doors bringing far-reaching views into the reception and dining rooms. A contemporary kitchen/breakfast room with granite flooring and underfloor heating complements the open-plan feel and thoughtful layout.
There are four bedrooms, including a principal room with ensuite and access to a roof terrace that captures long-distance Downland views. The property benefits from significant improvements and extensions carried out by the current owners, a garage with power and light, and extensive landscaped front and rear gardens with multiple patio/sun terrace areas — ideal for outdoor living and play.
Practical strengths include freehold tenure, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, off-street parking on the brick-paved driveway, and low local crime. The house sits in an affluent, largely older-workers and retirement area with nearby good-rated primary schools and a selection of independent schools close by.
Notable considerations: the house is multi-storey and the feature spiral staircase may be awkward for very young children, those with limited mobility or for moving large items. There are two bathrooms for four bedrooms which may limit convenience for larger families. One nearby secondary school is rated as requiring improvement; buyers prioritising secondary school performance should check local catchment options. Overall this is a well-maintained, characterful home that rewards an internal viewing.
