Positioned to the West of Bognor Regis town centre, Aldwick Avenue is a private marine estate which provides residents with private access to the beach, via a lychgate and well maintained lawned pathway. The estate is run by the residents and comprises an eclectic mix of architecture dating from historic homes such as this, to much more modern/contemporary buildings.

The property is approached via a driveway leading from Aldwick Avenue to the rear, where there is paved hard-stand providing parking in front of the detached garage. A pretty front courtyard with established beds leads to the front door of Grays Cottage, which opens into the entrance lobby where there is a door with staircase leading down to the versatile cellar/basement. A further door leads into the ground floor hallway.

The hallway is airy, with daylight flooding in from the large front aspect window on the half landing. The first door opens to a cloakroom, then an inner hall leads to a door to the main living room, while a further feature glass door seduces you into the kitchen/dining room.

The open plan kitchen/dining room and conservatory is truly a work of art; bespoke fitted units with generous work surfaces incorporating a breakfast bar, integrated appliances, sunken sink unit with mixer tap, integrated dishwasher, tiled splash backs, and contrasting tiled and wooden flooring really give this room the wow factor. Additionally, a door leading to the adjoining utility room, with further fitted units and work surface, space for a free standing fridge/freezer and additional appliance, second sink unit and window to the front.

The open plan dining area flows through to the rear into the delightful adjoining double glazed pitched roof conservatory, with a double glazed door to one side and double glazed french doors to the other, providing access to a large decked terrace.

Back to the living room where you’ll be wanting to sit in front of the fire, put on your best vinyl record, and open a bottle of something nice! This spacious room is stunning, featuring exposed herringbone parquet flooring, duel aspect windows and doors, along with a feature exposed brick chimney breast with tiled hearth and recessed gas fired stove.

A part glazed door from the living room leads to a highly versatile, triple aspect bedroom/study/hobbies room with feature vaulted ceiling with exposed beams, with duel aspect windows enjoying a pleasant outlook into the garden.

The first floor has a landing with doors to bedrooms 2 and 3, along with an inner landing with large double fronted storage cupboard, door to the first floor cloakroom and further glass panelled door into the master bedroom. Bespoke fitted cupboards draw you into the bedroom which features a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams, duel aspect windows to the front and rear and a high level window to the side set in a feature exposed brick wall. Another feature glass panelled door leads to the adjoining en-suite shower room with modern fitments of shower enclosure, w.c, wash basin, fitted storage and part restricted head height.

Adjacent to the en-suite shower room and accessed from the inner landing is a separate cloakroom/utility with w.c, wash basin, fitted work surface with space and plumbing for a washing machine (potential space for shower enclosure), fitted bespoke storage unit and window to the front.

The Guest Bedroom boasts fitted wardrobes along with a window to the rear and also benefits an adjoining en-suite shower room with shower cubicle, w.c, wash basin and window to the front. Bedroom 3 has a window to the rear.

Externally, the extensive garden is a real feature of this unique home having been designed to create secluded entertaining areas around the property, with a large decked terrace, shaped paved terrace and main area of lawn, all bordered by established well stocked borders with mature plants and shrubs.
