4 bed detached house for sale

Coastal Road, East Preston, West Sussex BN16

Jacobs Steel East Preston is delighted to present this rare chain-free opportunity to acquire a substantial detached beachfront residence occupying a prime position on the prestigious Coastal Road within the exclusive West Kingston Estate. Enjoying uninterrupted sea views, direct access to the greensward and beach beyond, and offering over 2,300 sq ft including garaging and workshop space, this is a home that combines immediate enjoyment with outstanding long-term potential.

Occupying one of East Preston's most sought-after coastal addresses, the property enjoys a truly enviable position where the ever-changing seascape forms a spectacular backdrop to everyday life. The West Kingston Estate is renowned for its exclusivity, direct beach access and peaceful surroundings, whilst remaining within easy reach of local amenities. East Preston village centre is just a short stroll away and offers a range of independent shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday conveniences, whilst coastal walks lead to the ever-popular Bluebird Café in neighbouring Ferring.

The accommodation extends to over 2,300 sq ft including the garaging and workshop, providing generous and versatile living space arranged over two floors. The ground floor comprises a substantial dual-aspect living room enjoying delightful views towards the sea, a separate dining room, snug, kitchen/breakfast room, utility room, storeroom and wc/cloakroom. The layout flows particularly well and offers an excellent balance of formal and informal reception space, ideal for both family life and entertaining.

To the first floor are four well-proportioned bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en-suite facilities and glorious coastal views. The three larger bedroom enjoy attractive outlooks across the gardens towards the sea, ensuring the property's exceptional setting can be appreciated throughout much of the home. A family bathroom with a corner tub finishes and landing with loft access completes the first floor.

Beautifully positioned and offering immense flexibility, the property is perfectly liveable in its current form whilst presenting an exceptional opportunity for a future owner to gradually tailor the home to their own tastes and requirements. The combination of a substantial footprint, generous plot and unrivalled beachfront setting creates significant long-term potential, whether through sympathetic enhancement or future enlargement, subject to the necessary planning permissions and consents.

Externally, the gardens are undoubtedly one of the property's standout features, offering a wonderful sense of openness and extending directly towards the greensward and beach beyond, the width of the plot accentuated by the adjoining twitten to the greensward. Few homes can genuinely claim direct access from the garden onto the beach, making this a lifestyle opportunity that is becoming increasingly difficult to secure. Extensive driveway parking, two garages and a workshop further enhance the practicality of the home, a rarity amongst frontline coastal properties.

Beyond the immediate coastline, the location offers excellent connectivity. Angmering mainline station is easily accessible and provides regular services to London Victoria and London Bridge, making the property ideally suited to both permanent occupation and weekend retreat use. The historic market town of Arundel, with its castle, independent boutiques and riverside walks, lies just a short drive away, whilst Chichester and the internationally renowned Goodwood Estate offer world-class motorsport, horse racing, golf and leisure facilities. Brighton & Hove, the South Downs National Park and Gatwick Airport are all readily accessible.

Homes occupying this stretch of Coastal Road rarely come to the market, particularly those offering such a compelling combination of beachfront position, generous accommodation, direct beach access and future potential. A truly rare opportunity within one of Sussex's most sought-after private coastal estates.
