DW KRPH Property: Tongdean Avenue, Mediterranean detached ‘villa’ Location: Hove Price: £1.75million Bedrooms:5 Bathrooms: 4
Extras: Jacuzzi, extensive balconies, gym space
Best bit: Set out over three floors, this home is spacious and open plan, emulating its inspiration – the typical bolt hole in the sun. Summary: The villa has been designed with an interesting layout; the reception rooms on the ground floor are set between the lower ground floor bedrooms and the accommodation on the first floor. When you enter on the ground floor you find all the usual areas, like an attractive entrance hall, study and kitchen with breakfast space. There are also attractive views of the garden and distant sea views from the dining room and living room that both open out on a rear-facing balcony. Below, at the rear, are three garden facing rooms, each with French doors opening onto the lawns. Two family bathrooms and a further bedroom occupy this lower ground floor space. Up top you’ll find the luxurious master bedroom with a wall of built-in storage, dressing room and en suite. There’s also the generously proportioned fourth and fifth bedrooms. A double garage on the ground floor has a large basement on the lower level. Linked by a spiral staircase, the open plan area is perfect as a gym or office space. Elsewhere in the well-looked after gardens you’ll find a Jacuzzi for when the local coastline just isn’t quite appealing enough. Contact: Hamptons International 01273 230 230 hamptons.co.uk
