This classic solid builders own home opposite Whitecliffs Beach is awaiting a new beginning.

Literally just a few steps to the crystal waters of White cliffs Beach, this 1970s sprawling family home on a blue chip 4360m2 (approx) allotment entices with endless scope to renovate or redevelop into a brand new coastal hideaway or architectural masterpiece (STCA) with a treed outlook from every room.

Long held, the existing four, five or six bedroom, three bathroom residence features a family/meals area, 2 kitchens in need of some TLC and original bathroom facilities, while the light filled living primary area with open fireplace and vaulted ceilings features zoned living both formal and casual dining.

Set amid a sunseeker's playground of beaches and water sports, the property is around a 15 minute walk to the throng of cafes, restaurants, takeaways, surf shops, ice creameries and bistros of Rye town center.

Hidden and well buffered from the main road, the allotment is encircled by mature coastal foliage adding to the peace and privacy. With all essential services in place, the land allows for a fuss free build once plans and permits have been secured.

Suited to permanent sea changers and holidaymakers equally, the property is also a short drive to golf courses, hot springs, surf breaks, wineries and day spas, which may also appeal to those seeking the perfect spot to construct a vacation home for the lucrative short stay market.
