Offering approximately 2,382 sq ft of versatile accommodation arranged over three impressive split-level floors, the property effortlessly blends timeless character with modern family living in one of the town's most desirable coastal settings. Owned by the same family for over two decades, the home retains a welcoming atmosphere whilst showcasing an abundance of original period features, including high decorative ceilings, elegant marble fireplaces and generously proportioned rooms throughout.

Outside, the property enjoys a private driveway providing off-road parking for up to three vehicles, complete with an EV charging point. Mature gardens wrap around the front and side of the property, whilst the secluded rear garden offers a peaceful sun-trap setting with established planting, a productive grapevine and a powered garden shed. Adding further appeal, the property was historically configured as self-contained flats, presenting exciting scope for future reconfiguration or multi-generational living, subject to the necessary planning permissions and consents. Littlehampton is a coastal gem sheltered by the South Downs. Situated at the mouth of the picturesque River Arun, it is a charmingly individual seaside town with a distinctive maritime character. Over the past few years the town has had a revamp and is now challenging Brighton, Shoreham, Hove, Worthing and Chichester as "the place to live". Littlehampton offers a choice of beaches. There is East Beach with its long promenade, parklands, funfair and traditional seaside fun or the unspoiled grassy sand dunes of West Beach. The River Arun divides Littlehampton’s East and West beaches with its harbour and marina. Together, the river and sea offer a range of pursuits from boating trips to deep sea fishing, scuba diving, water skiing and sailing. Other attractions include a golf course, theatre, sports centre, museum and the distinctive and award winning East Beach Café, whilst Harbour Park, an all-weather adventure village, offers family fun for all ages.
This property is situated within a short walk from Littlehampton's superb beaches and recreational facilities and the town centre with its many amenities which include a mainline station to Gatwick Airport and London Victoria, doctors, dentists, primary and junior schools and the Littlehampton Academy. The sand dunes and West Beach form part of a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI), extending towards Climping village. This protected area is home to one of only three sand dune systems in West Sussex, alongside a shingle beach, a rare habitat in the UK. The soft muds and sands provide a vital food source for wintering birds, while fossil hunters may even uncover hidden treasures along the shore. On clear days, the stunning coastal views stretch as far as Bognor and the Isle of Wight, making this a truly unique and picturesque natural landscape.Show more
