Detached house for sale in Oaklands Avenue, Saltdean, Brighton BN2

Set in the heart of leafy Saltdean, just minutes from the beach and the South Downs National Park, is this well-presented and newly renovated three-bedroom chalet. The interior is streamlined and modern with space for families and downsizers looking to live in peaceful surroundings amongst a family-friendly community. There is parking for several cars on the forecourt, and another in the detached garage which would also be ripe for conversion, and a separate garden room is ideal for those looking to work from home.

From the neat forecourt, you enter this home up a few stone steps past a sweet copper beech tree. There is a spacious entrance hall where coats can be hung up or there is an under stairs cupboard for additional storage. From here you enter the living room on the right.

A generous space with ample room for relaxed seating, this is a homely room, yet naturally light with triple aspect windows looking out to the peaceful street. An electric fire adds some warmth in winter, alongside the gas central heating and the decoration is immaculate with dove grey walls and laminate wood flooring which is both practical and stylish to suit all styles of modern furnishing.

Spanning the rear of the house, the kitchen and dining room extends into the conservatory creating the perfect space for entertaining or family time. It is heated and double glazed for use all year round and the aspect ensures it doesn’t get too hot during summer. White cabinetry offers plenty of storage solutions alongside integrated appliances and the utility room sits adjoining with space for two machines and an ironing board.

Also on this floor, bedroom two is a lovely double room with a private outlook and built-in wardrobes, while bedroom three is a single room, ideal as a nursery or as a home office. The smart, and the family bathroom is easy to access from both rooms. The smart, neutral décor can be found in all these rooms, with soft carpet underfoot in the bedrooms and a monochrome scheme in the bathroom with brick tiling and a shower over the bath.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom suite is a large double room built into the dormer loft space. A wide picture window brings in plenty of natural light and the en suite is in keeping with the bathroom below. The eaves allow for additional storage and have easy access through full height doors. Once again, the finish is immaculate, so you can move straight in with ease.

Outside, the garden is a great size for families looking to add play equipment or enjoy ball games. It also works well for summer barbecues and parties, where being open to the west, it catches the last of the summer sunshine. The garden room is a great size with double glazed windows and space for a desk, or gym equipment, so it is versatile depending on the family’s needs.
