This is a truly rare, one-off opportunity to acquire a breathtaking barn conversion by the sea, which we consider to be one of Saltdean’s most unique and exquisite homes. Dating back to the mid-19th century and believed to be among the oldest properties in the town, this exceptional three-bedroom, two-bathroom residence effortlessly blends historic charm with contemporary refinement. The property has undergone extensive refurbishment by the current owners and has been professionally redecorated throughout, resulting in immaculate presentation and exceptional attention to detail. Internally, the character is immediately apparent with exposed beams, a vaulted ceiling, a galleried landing and beautifully curated décor including one-of-a-kind barn antiques, with the living room further enhanced by a charming log burner creating a warm and inviting focal point. Newly fitted bathroom fixtures and fittings complement the overall quality of finish throughout. The accommodation is further enhanced by a substantial loft space offering exciting potential for future conversion, subject to the usual consents. Externally, the property is approached via an attractive lych-style gate, opening onto a secluded and level lawned front garden, thoughtfully planted with mature shrubs and established trees to provide an excellent degree of privacy and offering ample space for a patio dining area, with convenient side access leading through to the rear. To the front there is also a garage and additional off-road parking. The rear garden is equally appealing, featuring an attractive decked patio ideal for entertaining, a sunken hot tub and outdoor shower, all framed by further mature trees and shrubs to create a tranquil and private setting. A rear access gate leads directly onto Hamsey Road, providing immediate links to the seafront and Southdowns National Park. There are excellent public transport connections, with regular bus services running every five minutes to Brighton and Eastbourne. The property is being sold partially furnished and is offered with no onward chain, making this an unmissable opportunity for discerning buyers seeking something truly special. Internal viewing is considered essential to fully appreciate the quality of the restoration and the uniqueness of this remarkable home, with viewings strictly by appointment only. The property is currently used as a successful airbnb rental.
