3 Bed Detached House For Sale

*** GUIDE PRICE £475,000 - £500,000 ***

Located in Portslade, just a short distance from Portslade Train Station and the amenities of Station Road and Boundary Road, this generously-sized END-OF-TERRACE THREE BEDROOM EDWARDIAN HOUSE boasts a fascinating local history, a private REAR SOUTH FACING GARDEN and a GARAGE.

Built circa 1908, the property originally formed part of the Portslade Police Station complex, serving as the home of the local Police Sergeant and his family. The police station itself was situated next door, and by 1919, records show Superintendent W. Suter and three constables residing on the site. Remarkably, the property has remained in the same family for 45 years and is now being offered to the market for the first time.

Set back from the road behind a mature front garden and an elegant Edwardian façade, this spacious home offers a traditional layout with a substantial ground floor living area and bedrooms arranged above. The property retains many period features, including large bay windows and decorative fireplaces.

The ground floor provides two spacious reception rooms, a separate fitted kitchen, adjoining pantry, utility room and w/c. Upstairs, there are three double bedrooms, a shower room, and a versatile walk-in storage room.

Outside, the south-facing garden enjoys plenty of sunshine throughout the day and has been thoughtfully designed for ease of maintenance, with paved areas and mature flower beds providing colour and structure. A garage to the rear completes this wonderful home - a property rich in both history and character, offering an exceptional opportunity in a highly convenient Portslade location.

The property offers great potential and would benefit from modernisation throughout.
