Description

Nestled in the heart of Rustington Village, this two-bedroom detached bungalow offers a promising foundation for renovation and investment. Located just half a mile from both the seafront and the vibrant village center, the property benefits from a prime location that blends convenience with coastal charm. The exterior features a generously sized driveway capable of accommodating multiple vehicles, leading to a substantial 21-foot garage. A well-maintained front garden adds to the property's appeal, with its mix of manicured lawns and flowerbed borders providing a welcoming first impression. Upon entering, you'll find a practical porch area—ideal for managing coats and outdoor gear—before stepping into an expansive entrance hall. This central space connects to all principal rooms and showcases attractive herringbone parquet flooring. The sizable dimensions of the hall also suggest potential for future enhancements, such as adding a staircase for possible loft conversion (subject to planning permissions). The south-facing lounge is bathed in natural light thanks to its large bay window and additional side windows, creating an inviting atmosphere. Adjacent to the lounge is the kitchen, which comes equipped with ample counter space, an eye-level oven, and room for essential appliances. A side door conveniently connects the kitchen to both front and rear areas of the home. The bungalow comprises two double bedrooms, each featuring sizable windows that overlook the peaceful rear garden; the main bedroom includes dual aspects for enhanced sunlight. The bathroom is functional but offers potential for modernization, featuring tiled walls along with standard fittings. In terms of outdoor space, the rear garden presents a private retreat with an immediate patio area followed by a central lawn bordered by vibrant flower beds and shrubs. Additional features include a greenhouse at the back of the garden alongside two sheds/workshops—one equipped with electricity—offering further utility or potential rental opportunities. With its strategic location and ample scope for improvement or extension, this property is not only appealing as a residence but also represents an opportunity for astute investors seeking value in a desirable neighborhood.
