This substantially extended four-bedroom semi-detached home in Eastbourne Old Town delivers flexible family living across a generous open-plan ground floor. The large kitchen/dining area with bi-fold doors flows out to a south-facing rear garden with a paved sun patio, lawn, playhouse and a 20' timber workshop — excellent for family life and hobbies.
The ground floor layout includes a useful fourth bedroom, a utility room and a shower room, allowing annexe-style use or flexible reception space. A cosy lounge with a wood-burning stove provides a comfortable contrast to the bright, contemporary kitchen/dining hub. Off-street parking and a low-maintenance front garden add everyday convenience.
Practical details: gas central heating, uPVC double glazing and significant modernisation and extension by the current owner. The plot is generous for the area and the location places popular schools and local shops within easy reach. The property suit families seeking adaptable living and entertaining space close to the South Downs.
Notable drawbacks: the house was built mid-20th century using system-built walls with assumed no insulation — improving thermal performance may be necessary. Some glazing predates 2002 and further energy-efficiency upgrades (insulation, windows) are likely to reduce running costs. The wider area shows higher deprivation indices and above-average local crime rates; buyers should consider local services and security measures.
