This spacious 1930s detached house on Willingdon Road offers room for a growing family across two generous reception rooms and five double bedrooms. The layout suits everyday family life — large lounge, separate dining/family room and a long utility area — with a private, level rear garden and garage for practical outdoor living and storage.
Set on an ample plot with off-street parking, the property benefits from mains gas heating, double glazing (install date unknown) and fast broadband, making it ready for modern family routines. Local shops and regular bus services to Eastbourne town centre are within easy reach, and several well-rated primary and secondary schools are nearby.
The house is offered freehold and provides a strong footprint for improvement: bathrooms and kitchen are serviceable but not fully modern, and a single shower room plus a family bathroom serves five bedrooms. Buyers should note the property dates from the 1930s, which can mean attractive period character but may also bring a need for updating or modernization in places. Council tax banding is above average.
Overall, this is a roomy, well-located family home with a large garden and garage, ideal for buyers seeking space and potential to personalise. A viewing will best reveal the accommodation, layout and scope for improvements.
