3 bed det houses

FOOTSKI · Jul 16, 2013

I live in Kent at the moment and am looking to get a home nearer to brighton for about £400,000.

Where do you think i should go? or more to the point where should i avoid?

feedback from the locals would be great.

Nibble · Jul 16, 2013

Yes, we see you.

Horsham is very nice

Shoreham is on the up - some nice places to live around there

dragonred · Jul 16, 2013

shoreham or West Hove (as some of the locals call Portslade) should see you get something decent for your money

You won't get a 3 bed detached place in shoreham for 400k. Unless you want a bungalow.

could i find something for that price in hove? It seems to me everything is getting abit pricey around the city.

Portslade wouldn't be a bad choice or Southwick. Might have to spend a bit extra though

That maybe the only option. This is the sort of feedback i'm after thanks

You'd get a pretty decent house for that in Hangleton AND have the advantage of being near the H and S routes to the Amex on match day !

Or in Hove - http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-42031616.html

Or even in Withdean it seems ! http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-27512082.html

Steyning is very nice. If you've got kids the schools here are excellent.

I nearly bought this house about 9 years ago.........

thanks mate. There is some hope. I have'nt looked at withdean yet. All the years walking to the ground every other week and i did'nt even think of it :blush:

My mums semi-detached 3 bedroom house in Portslade just went for £240,000.
I think you'll easily find something for £400,000 in Portslade / Southwick / outskirts of Shoreham.

Withdean is generally over priced so be careful. It really depends on what you really want and what work you're prepared to put in. For example here in sleepy Hangleton my neighbours brought the semi-detatched 1 bed bungalow next door for £200k. £30k to add an extra layer and it's about to become a two bathroom, 3 bed with a 120 foot garden.

mikeyjh · Jul 16, 2013

As already mentioned, there's not a huge amount in Shoreham at that price, but worth keeping your eye out - People are generally being very optimistic with their asking price, notably this one, originally on at £485k :lolol:

I think we will prob end up in an area like that. Close enough to get to the city but far enough to be affordable

Selling a 2 bed bungalow in woodingdean, ripe for loft conversion, yours for only £245k! Rightmove - bn2 6lr!

Canonman · Jul 16, 2013

Saltdean is very nice, parts of Woodingdean, might even find something Ovingdean if someone wants a quick sale.

Yeah, we are keeping our options open, and if we need to do a place up than i think we will give it a go.

Our aim is to down size and become mortgage free. Well thats the plan :smile:
