The Story
A bespoke design that is perfectly suited to the family with a love of entertaining and a passion for living.
From the street, number 24 boasts an immaculate, well maintained exterior with classic red brickwork enhanced by attractive cream rendered quoins. An exotic Chanticleer ornamental pear tree features in the front garden. Carefully chosen for its abundant white flowers and vibrant autumnal foliage, it has been enjoyed by the entire street.
The somewhat modest exterior tends to conceal the quality and size of this charismatic home. Upon entry, the wow factor begins! The lofty 2.7m ceilings, the stunning Northern Box Timber floor with its warm honey tones, and the expansive open plan kitchen, meals and family room at the rear are perhaps the 3 standout features. The current owners have designed the home for easy living and the floor plan is a testament to this fact. The carpeted main bedroom is located at the front away from the busier areas of the home. A walk through robe leads to the ensuite bathroom, offering privacy and dressing space.
Beautiful Zepel drapes enhance the windows in the master bedroom and sitting room adding timeless and elegant appeal. As you proceed down the corridor you will pass 3 double bedrooms, a sparkling family bathroom and a simply outstanding laundry to reach the heart of this fabulous dwelling. Upon entry, it reminds me of those fabulous rooms we all adore in our House and Garden magazines. It oozes with natural light due to the near floor to ceiling windows and doors, and has a warm, comfortable feel that's not always found in rooms of this size. The kitchen has been so sensibly designed with an enviable butler's pantry for food and equipment storage with ample room for a second fridge or freezer.
The "L" shaped island bench has power points and features pot drawers and cupboards for extra storage. It is a perfect spot for the kids to settle and do their homework under your watchful eye. It also identifies the kitchen zone within this expansive room. There's space for a huge dining table, a play area and of course the home entertainment system.
It's a brilliant house for entertaining large numbers of family and friends. Open up the sliding doors and let the outside in. Flow through to the alfresco dining zone with its Accolade Weather screens - a great alternative to PVC cafe blinds. This outdoor room can be used all year round. The wood fired pizza oven provides a multitude of outdoor cooking options and with the covered, screened pergola can also be used at anytime during the year.
A paved utility area, (home to a 3mx3m garden shed that could easily be relocated to make room for a van or boat) adjoins the double secure carport with remote access. This has been neatly screened with timber slats to keep it out of view of the entertaining are and landscaped garden.
This house offers the truly fortunate new owners the opportunity to live in this highly regarded area of Littlehampton in a home that exudes an elegant, yet comfortable ambience that will stand the test of time. It is a home that you will grow into, not out of, whatever your stage in life.
I've really fallen for this house - I think you will too!
