4 bed detached house for sale

Lamorna Grove, Worthing, West Sussex BN14

A highly individual late 1920's detached dwelling designed by local architect A. T. W. Goldsmith. A stunning four bedroom family home with a self contained detached annexe.

Nestled within a private cul-de-sac sits Leysehurst, an exceptional 1920’s detached family home, originally built and lived in by a locally renowned architect. Beautifully combining period character with modern, energy-efficient living, the property also benefits from a recently constructed freestanding annex, designed for contemporary and sustainable living and powered by solar energy.

Approached via a charming orangery-style entrance, the property opens into an impressive reception hall featuring bespoke fitted storage and a stylish cloakroom. The home has been sympathetically enhanced throughout, retaining its original Crittall windows and doors while benefiting from Krypton-filled double glazing for improved comfort and efficiency.

The elegant living room enjoys a striking bay window overlooking the mature gardens and features an original fireplace with a ceramic log burner, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. At the heart of the home is a superb open-plan kitchen/dining room with integrated appliances, a retained larder cupboard, generous storage and a comfortable seating area. Sliding doors provide seamless access to the sun-drenched patio and entertaining spaces beyond.

A separate utility room leads directly to the double tandem garage and adjoining carports. Solar panels supply energy to both the main house and the annex, further enhancing the property’s impressive sustainability credentials.

The first floor offers four beautifully presented bedrooms. The impressive principal suite features a freestanding copper bathtub, private balcony and delightful garden views. A further double bedroom benefits from a bay window, while another bedroom is currently arranged as a luxurious dressing room with fitted wardrobes. A contemporary shower room with twin wash basins, walk-in shower and WC serves the remaining accommodation.

Outside, the stunning walled gardens provide a private oasis, with established planting, lawned areas, fig and olive trees, multiple terraces, a covered seating area, summerhouse with power and lighting, greenhouse, and a Husqvarna robotic lawnmower system.

Further enhancing the property’s appeal is a beautifully appointed one-bedroom self-contained annex, built to modern building regulations and powered entirely by solar energy. Ideal for guests, multigenerational living or home working, it comprises a spacious lounge/dining room with kitchen, double bedroom and large en-suite shower room.

The property is completed by a double tandem garage, two carports, and extensive off-road parking for three additional vehicles, offering exceptional practicality alongside its considerable charm.
