Why You’ll Like It:
If you have a busy lifestyle this is the perfect retreat tucked away on a no through street in a well -connected area with a laid back, social vibe and organic shops. With double glazing this box bay, painted house with a front door the famous ‘Brighton seafront colour’ has immediate appeal and inside new life breathes through this light and spacious home where double glazing is discreet and the flow is fuss free.
As is usual in these historic homes built on hills, the living area is downstairs – so it opens to the garden. All about embracing friends, family and an al fresco lifestyle, the dream living, kitchen dining, family room spans the building from front to back. Perfect for everyday but also for parties, it has been sensitively extended and improved so the east wall of glass opens to the flowing landscape of the tropical garden - and oak underfoot ensures a fuss free flow.
Skilfully designed with a large window at the front, the streamlined kitchen delivers ample storage and striking granite surfaces look great but are also hardy. Good to go, integrated appliances include a gas hob beneath a hood and a micro/combi oven at eye level, a dishwasher, fridge and freezer (and there’s a discreet utility area hidden away in the snug behind Son & Cole paper!). There’s space for a family table and it’s open to the living area which has 4.01x 3.3m (13’1 x 10’9) where guests can relax without being overlooked and there’s under stair space for a t.v and storage. With views through the snug it’s a space to enjoy and the snug itself is quiet and comfortable with French doors leading out to the garden.
Outside, surrounded by gardens the walled, patio garden is a tranquil oasis, full of birdsong and expertly designed. By the house, and level with it – a feature hard to find in a city built on the South Downs, the patio has plenty of space for entertaining and it’s a child and pet secure delight to return to, scented by flowers for pollinators and exotic foliage and palms for a holiday feel. Larger than many this close to the city centre and the sea it is also low maintenance so you will have more time to have fun in the sun.
Returning inside, the first of the generous bedrooms is on the ground floor, ideal for guests or teens. Light and airy it has grace and space with fitted wardrobes to fill and it is next to a luxury bathroom which could have stepped out of a glossy magazine. With a designer finish, the bathroom is large enough for both a statement freestanding tub and separate walk in shower. The floor is marbled porcelain and the hand basin rests on a bespoke shelf.
Upstairs, the second double bedroom is a restful retreat with built in wardrobes and garden views whilst at the front, the principal bedroom is a serene sanctuary, painted in the historic hues of Farrow and Ball with the soothing proportions only period properties provide with floor to ceiling custom made wardrobes.
Agent’s Thoughts:
“This is a popular area full of professionals and families where you are never far from fresh coffee and a croissant -or a bistro pub if you don’t want to cook! The Level, which hosts events in the arts festivals, fashionable open air market and legendary North Laine are a short walk, the station, schools and parks are easy to reach and local buses take you straight into or out of the city.”
Owner’s Secret:
“We wanted a spacious house close to the sea and the countryside, but needed to be within walking distance of direct trains to London -and then we found this pretty Victorian terrace. We loved the leafy surrounds at the front and immediately fell in love with the light and beautiful proportions of the house – and the quiet, no through road! Inside we wanted an easy flow with versatile rooms whilst keeping the inviting, calm nature of the house. Our favourite place is the family kitchen living dining room and snug/study which flows out to the garden which are easy, breezy places we enjoy together. We’re surrounded by parks with sports facilities and playgrounds and it’s a short to stroll to London Road for fresh produce or restaurants in the North Laine. There really is a friendly community here and with local buses, you won’t always be dependent on a car.”
