Description

This four-bedroom detached home presents a remarkable opportunity for renovation and investment in the sought-after Woodlands area. Originally designed by architect Harold Turner during the interwar period, this property sits on one of the largest plots on the street, offering considerable potential for expansion (subject to planning permission). Upon arrival, the expansive driveway accommodates multiple vehicles alongside a garage, with an appealing façade that enhances its curb appeal. Inside, a combination of timeless features and modern updates awaits. The ground floor hosts several reception areas, a convenient WC, and a utility room linked to the well-appointed kitchen—ideal for both entertaining and everyday family life. The tiered garden serves as a lovely outdoor space with established greenery and a generous patio, providing plenty of sun-soaked areas for relaxation. Additionally, a large external pool house is ripe for restoration or transformation into further accommodation (subject to planning). The principal suite stands out with its en-suite bathroom and spacious walk-in wardrobe, while three more sizable bedrooms cater well to families or guests. Located just moments from Hove Park, various shops, transport links, and high-quality schools makes this property particularly desirable for families and professionals alike. With available plans for an extensive rear extension and significant loft conversion possibilities (pending relevant consents), this home not only boasts charm but also offers exceptional scope for development.
