3 bed detached house for sale

Hughenden Road, Hastings TN34

Set beneath the West Hill, this former Station Masters house sits within its own private garden. Thoughtfully re-imagined, classic materials and considered additions enhance the original character of this detached family home.

Inside
A vestibule laid with encaustic tiles offers a space for coats and boots, opening to a wide entrance hall. To the front of the plan sits the primary bay windowed reception room, retaining its original proportions with bespoke cabinetry, sash windows and period fireplace. Adjacent, a large kitchen dining space extends to the rear where herringbone brick flooring runs underfoot. Deep blue units are paired with modern appliances, topped in a white quartz. The adjoining dining area gives way to the secluded garden via full height French doors, with skylights above. A generous second reception room with detailed panelling is painted in a rich green, with oak flooring underfoot. A downstairs cloakroom with period appropriate fittings completes the ground floor.

A sweeping staircase rises to the first floor, with powder blue spindles set against ink blue walls. Three light filled double bedrooms are arranged around the galleried landing, all providing original floorboards, wooden panelling and double-glazed sash windows. The principal bedroom lies quietly to the rear, lined with a bank of fitted wardrobes and offering far westerly views. An en-suite wet room is wrapped in glazed blue tiling, finished in Burlington furniture. The family bathroom sits centrally, dressed with a deep-set roll-top bath and fluted glass shower. Pops of olive-green tiling are paired with a twin washstand, and taupe brick bond flooring.

Outside
The private gated garden unfolds in two defined parts, with a lawned area to the front enclosed by mature hedging, Acers and Cherry trees. To the rear, a secluded paved terrace gives way to the dining area. Off-street parking is provided for two cars.

Area
Hughenden Road lies on the cusp of the West Hill, a short walk from the green expanse of Alexandra Park and Hastings Old Town with its diverse local architecture, numerous notable restaurants and independent traders. Ore station is moments away, offering highspeed services to London via St Pancras.
