Description

This Grade II Listed flint-fronted cottage, located on the historically rich High Street of Rottingdean, presents a compelling opportunity for renovation. Arranged across three floors and featuring an additional cellar, the property retains a significant amount of its original character while requiring comprehensive updates throughout to realize its full potential. The spacious layout includes two reception rooms, three double bedrooms, a large kitchen with adjoining boot room, and an en-suite bathroom in the master suite. The approximately 40ft walled garden offers a private outdoor space with west-facing sunlight, all conveniently located near local amenities such as pubs and shops, and just a short drive from central Brighton. While the property showcases original features like wooden parquet flooring and sash windows, it also has areas that would benefit from modernization. This allows for personalization according to modern tastes while preserving its historic charm. Given the proximity to both the coast and the South Downs National Park, this cottage not only serves as a residence but also represents a solid investment opportunity in an attractive area.
