Guide price £900,000 - £950,000. Well-presented 4-bed chalet bungalow in peaceful Rottingdean, with landscaped gardens, lift to principal suite, and stunning views over open fields.
The property
Tucked away near the top of Dean Court Road – one of Rottingdean’s quietest and most peaceful spots – this bright and beautifully maintained four-bedroom chalet bungalow has been thoughtfully designed to be fully accessible for wheelchair users, including a lift to the impressive principal suite upstairs.
From the moment you arrive, this home makes a great first impression. The front garden has been professionally landscaped by a local designer and is a real standout on the road – with a gently sloping pathway leading you through pretty planting up to a wide, welcoming front door.
Inside, the bright entrance hall connects all the main ground floor spaces. At the front, there’s a spacious, light-filled living room – the perfect place to unwind with the family. Next door, the current dining room also works well as a fourth bedroom, with double doors opening from the hallway and the lift to the upper floor discreetly tucked in the corner.
The central hallway leads to a sleek, modern shower room, complete with a double walk-in shower, WC and basin. There’s a smaller double bedroom, and a larger one that opens out to the garden through bi-fold doors – currently set up as a lovely second sitting room/guest room, complete with built-in wardrobes.
At the back of the house, the kitchen/breakfast room is a real highlight. There’s space for a large dining table, perfect for mealtimes with a view, and more bi-fold doors open directly onto the garden. The kitchen itself is both stylish and practical, with wraparound units, integrated appliances and lowered worktops to ensure everything is within easy reach.
Upstairs, the principal suite makes the most of the views to both the front and rear of the home. This generous space is accessed via stairs or the internal lift and includes a walk-in wardrobe and en-suite bathroom. With the right permissions, there’s scope to reconfigure this floor into multiple rooms, offering even more flexibility.
Outside, the rear garden has been designed to mirror the front – beautifully landscaped with a gently sloping path that winds its way up past seating areas to a lovely raised viewpoint, where you can take in the stunning open fields behind. At the top, there’s an outbuilding with power – ideal as a home office, summerhouse or creative studio. Additional storage is provided by the garage at the front of the house.
