6 bedroom detached house for sale

Opportunities like this arrive perhaps once in a generation. To discover a property of this scale, setting and completeness within reach of Brighton & Hove is, in the truest sense of the word, rare... and those who have spent time searching in the South East will understand precisely why. Set behind a sweeping private driveway, this exceptional six-bedroom residence commands over 4,000 square feet of thoughtfully configured living space across three floors, yet it is the land that sets this home entirely apart. The property sits within a three-quarter of an acre plot of beautifully landscaped grounds, complete with mature established shrubbery, generous patio areas, and space to breathe in every direction. Beyond that, a separate 4.4 acre paddock (currently fitted with equestrian facilities) extends the total holding to over five acres, creating a private rural estate of remarkable scope. For equestrians, for families who dream of genuine open space, or simply for those who believe their home should be a refuge rather than just a residence, this is a combination you will not find again soon. The house itself has been substantially extended on both the ground and first floors, and the results speak clearly of quality and vision. The ground floor unfolds into outstanding open-plan living and entertaining space, the kind that accommodates a busy family life and a dinner party for twenty with equal ease. The principal suite on the first floor is nothing short of spectacular, commanding its own sense of occasion, while five further bedrooms and five bath and shower rooms ensure that comfort here is not rationed. Views from the property are simply unforgettable: rolling South Downs hills to the north and sea views reaching south towards the coast - a panorama that changes with every season. A large driveway provides parking for multiple vehicles, and a double garage with EV charging point completes the practical picture. Should an incoming purchaser wish to build further on this exceptional foundation, there is potential to enlarge the property still further, subject to the usual planning consents. What brings everything together is the setting itself, genuinely rural in character, with the kind of peace and privacy that most people spend a lifetime searching for, yet connected with reassuring ease to Rottingdean village and the full amenity of Brighton & Hove. Properties of this calibre, this acreage, this position, this ambition - do not linger. Viewing is not just recommended; it is essential. Contact us today to arrange your private appointment.
