8 bed detached house for sale

Saltdean Drive, Saltdean, Brighton, East Sussex BN2

Arguably one of the most deceptively spacious homes in Saltdean, this unique and expansive property offers highly versatile accommodation across three floors, with multiple living options ideal for extended families, guests, or potential income generation. Elevated above the town, it boasts some of the most commanding views across Saltdean and out to sea, which can be enjoyed from several key vantage points within the home.
A practical entrance porch opens into a generous hallway with built-in storage, setting the tone for the scale of the accommodation that follows. The main living room is a bright and inviting space, enjoying a double aspect and a large picture window that captures the coastal light. Also on this level are four double bedrooms—each well-proportioned, with one featuring a characterful bay window, another with integrated storage, and the largest extending over 22 feet with direct access to a south-easterly facing balcony offering breathtaking panoramic views. This principal bedroom is further enhanced by a stylish en-suite shower room with a modern white suite and quality tiling. From here, an additional porch offers direct front and rear access, adding to the practicality of the layout. A well-appointed family bathroom with tasteful décor completes the accommodation on this floor.
Upstairs, two further bedrooms are tucked into the eaves, each offering substantial storage space and one benefitting from its own en-suite shower room, making this floor ideal for older children, guests, or a home office set-up.
The lower ground floor is where the property’s true versatility shines. A spacious kitchen/breakfast room with high-gloss units and space for appliances opens via double doors to the garden, creating a natural flow for indoor-outdoor living. Additionally, there is a second kitchen/living area with fitted units and access to the garden, along with two more bedrooms—one with a bay window—and an abundance of storage, including a large cellar. A third bathroom, a separate WC, and further utility areas make this level ideal for use as a self-contained annexe, independent rental unit, or Airbnb accommodation, subject to consents.
Externally, the front of the property offers off-road parking for two vehicles, while the rear garden is a peaceful and private retreat, complete with a decked patio area and well-maintained lawn that ensures low maintenance without sacrificing charm.
