A rare opportunity to own a spacious and beautifully designed 5-bedroom detached home in the sought-after village of Rottingdean, just 10 minutes from Brighton. This light-filled family home offers generous living space, an expansive garden, off-street parking, and an integral garage — all set against breathtaking views of rolling countryside and the local cricket ground.
The house is designed for modern living, with a thoughtful layout and high-quality finishes throughout. Downstairs, the inviting entrance hall opens to a spacious living room with a log-burning stove, a versatile family/music room, and a stunning open-plan kitchen-dining space with 6-metre-wide glass doors that perfectly frame the garden and South Downs beyond. A separate utility room, home office, and a practical boot room with a guest WC complete the ground floor. The kitchen itself is a standout feature, with bespoke Arbor Lane cabinetry, Carrara quartz worktops, and premium appliances, including Smeg ovens, a Gorenje hob, and a large central island perfect for cooking and socialising.
Upstairs, five well-proportioned double bedrooms radiate from a central landing. The principal suite offers a dressing area, en-suite shower room, and Juliette balcony with far-reaching countryside views. A further en-suite guest room and a luxurious family bathroom with a freestanding bath and walk-in shower provide comfort and style. Large windows throughout the first floor flood the rooms with natural light, and every bedroom offers its own unique charm and outlook over the gardens or surrounding landscape.
Outside, the beautifully landscaped garden is perfect for outdoor living and entertaining. A large decked terrace overlooks the lawn and sits next to a charming brick-built summer house — a perfect spot for relaxing or creative use. Beyond a mature hedge, the ‘secret garden’ reveals a timber-built garden room, offering a peaceful retreat with wonderful views across the cricket ground. The mature planting, generous lawn, and scenic backdrop make this garden a true oasis of calm.
The home’s integral garage and off-street parking provide convenience, while the practical layout ensures ample storage throughout. The separate utility room is ideal for managing household tasks, keeping laundry and everyday essentials neatly tucked away. The property has been designed with both comfort and functionality in mind, making it an ideal choice for modern family life
