Description

This detached bungalow presents a compelling opportunity for renovation and investment, situated on a desirable corner plot in a tranquil residential neighborhood. The property offers convenient access to local amenities and transport links, making it an attractive option for families and downsizers alike. Inside, the home features a spacious layout filled with natural light. The generous lounge connects seamlessly to a dining area, which could easily be converted back into a third bedroom if desired. The kitchen is equipped with a variety of units and appliances, leading to a sunny lean-to that overlooks the garden. Two well-proportioned double bedrooms provide ample living space, alongside a bathroom and separate WC. Although the property has been maintained over the years, it would benefit from modern updates, allowing new owners to personalize the space according to their taste. Additional highlights include gas central heating and double glazing throughout. There’s significant potential for extension or reconfiguration of the layout, subject to necessary permissions, offering buyers the chance to create their ideal living environment. The external features are just as appealing; the west-facing rear garden provides a private outdoor retreat. A private driveway leads to a detached garage, ensuring off-road parking is readily available. Located within walking distance of Windmill Parade's convenience stores and close to Holmbush Retail Park with its major retailers such as Tesco Extra and Marks & Spencer, this property also benefits from proximity to local leisure facilities. Southwick Square and Southwick Village Green are nearby, providing additional shopping options along with community services like a library and GP surgery. For those commuting or exploring further afield, Southwick railway station offers regular services along the coast and to London. The surrounding area boasts several reputable schools, including Shoreham Academy, which holds an 'Outstanding' rating from Ofsted. This combination of location advantages and renovation potential makes this bungalow an enticing prospect for anyone looking to invest in a property they can truly make their own.
