"A minute s walk from the beach, this lateral three bedroom home lies on a quiet, unadopted road in sought after Camber Sands. A clever renovation has carved out a series of bright, peaceful spaces, where glazed doors create easy movement between inside and out. There is a private south easterly garden with a studio, as well as off street parking for three cars. Rye with its train station, shops and places to eat is a 10 minute drive away.



The Tour



The house sits mere metres from the beach, set behind a sand lined front yard with a picket fence and a variety of coastal shrubs. Its fa ade is characterised by clean lines, grey painted tongue and groove panelling and a pitched slate roof.



Entry is to a spacious dual aspect living room with a large bay window. The seating area is arranged around the wood burning stove ideal for warming up post sea swim and there is tactile jute carpeting underfoot. At the back, large French doors flow into the kitchen and dining area.



The kitchen is fitted with off white units, oak countertops and a neutral backsplash; it also has an integrated gas hob and an oven from Smeg. A dining area lies beneath the skylight and is bathed in natural light. Glazed doors provide seamless passage to the garden.



The dining area connects to a hallway that leads to an airy and secluded bedroom. Built in wardrobes provide storage space here, and wool carpeting spreads out underfoot. French doors connect to the garden and can be opened to usher in a coastal breeze. Extending on one side is an en suite shower room is finished with dark grey walls.



There are two more bedrooms at the opposite end of the plan, decorated with deep blue tones; one has doors that open to the garden. The well appointed family bathroom has a large walk in shower and is fitted with stone effect tiles and a wall mounted towel warmer.



Outdoor Space



At the rear is a south easterly garden with a lawn and beds filled with herbs, shrubs and flowers. There is a decked terrace with space for a large dining table and a built in barbecue. The lounge area has a white washed pergola providing shelter and shade, with room for relaxing while taking in the ocean breeze.



A detached studio summer house offers additional storage space and is electrically wired.

The house is around a minute s walk from Camber Sands, a seven mile of sandy beach in East Sussex, close to the border with Kent.
