House For Sale £775,000
Seriously chic, this impressive three bedroom Regency house has been sympathetically transformed into a luxury sanctuary within a stately terrace of Grade II listed homes which has the vibrant al fresco lifestyle of Upper St James's Street at one end and the sea at the other. No expense has been spared in creating a designer kitchen with high spec appliances, a ground floor ideal for entertaining whilst the three beautifully presented double bedrooms include a first floor principle suite complete with dressing room and sea view. With wireless access points installed on each floor to ensure good Wi-Fi connection, the house is ready for modern living.
Integrated Bowers & Wilkins ceiling speakers, Linn amplifiers and a wireless control system have been installed throughout the house and extends into the dynamic, landscaped garden which also has lighting and built in seating. Attracting international investors and professionals who work in the city, it is a short walk to the legal centres, Amex and County Hospital, whilst families will appreciate the proximity to good schools and Queen's Park. An enjoyable ramble down St James's Street or scenic stroll along the seafront will take you to the picturesque Lanes and legendary art venues of our coastal city and if you need swift access to the airports, London or Portsmouth, the station is just 5 minutes by cab.
Now is the time to buy in this prime conservation area between the famous Lanes and glamorous Marina. On a quiet one way street tucked away from the tourists who flock to our international party resort, this historic beauty is more peaceful than its fashionable location may suggest and its flawless exterior with unique front door introduces you to the expert level of finish outside, whilst inside, the hushed, sensor lit lobby with rush matting is a discreetly practical transition characteristic of this thoughtful and thorough refurbishment.
The ground floor and garden:
Sunlight streams uninterrupted through an inviting living space with a broad west bay and French doors in the east wall framing views of the garden. Classic oak is underfoot, hand crafted cabinets reach the high ceiling and a carefully sourced fireplace retain the character of this graceful home whilst designer paper, lighting managed by design led Buster and Punch steel dimmer switches and the integrated sound system bring a luxury 21st century finish ideal for entertaining. For hot summer days, the ground floor benefits from air conditioning.
Outside, the flint walled garden paved in brick is a spacious oasis which is child and pet secure. Made private by dynamic horizontal fencing and statement planting, the wood also clads raised beds and is punctuated by sleek lighting for parties – and the built in seating has a speaker nearby as well as a heater overhead.
The kitchen and guest cloakroom:
A gift for gourmets, the stylish kitchen is designer from the bespoke units with expensive marble surfaces to the high spec integrated appliances and two levels of light. The Siemens touch induction hob is beneath a hood, the fan oven has a professional warming tray and planned with hospitality in mind, twin Fischer Paycal fridge/freezer drawers light upon opening and are backed up by a third freezer.
Ready for all eventualities, the Siemens dishwasher is close to the deep Franke sink which is fitted with a fabulous Quooker tap, the Bosch washer/drier is at the ready for after beach changing, a deep cupboard keeps everything uncluttered and the smart guest cloakroom lights up when you open the door.
The first floor principle suite:
Sweeping up to the first floor, the principle suite is what dreams are made of, spanning the full width of this substantial property with a full height bay window to bring in the sun and oblique sea views. A calm refuge to return to with muted palette and a feature wall, handmade wardrobes with sophisticated storage on each side of a period fireplace continue through into the discrete dressing area.
Private at the back of the building, a sliding opaque glass door reveals a spa like wet room with concealed heating beneath your feet, the hidden sound system in the bedroom is also in here, and exclusive Lefroy Brooks fittings include a dual head shower in brushed steel and traditional style in keeping with the age of the house.
The second floor bedroom and bathroom:
With a window looking down to the English Channel, the same meticulous attention to detail is seen in the second large double bedroom with handcrafted triple wardrobes and fireplace radiating charm with seashells immortalised in iron.
As in all the bedrooms, dimmer switches, old school radiators and surround sound meld to create a soothing escape at the heart – but out of hearing-of our fabulous coastal resort. Next door, you can still enjoy calming music in a light and airy bathroom which has a Victorian influence with a fabulous eagle claw slipper bath, classic Lefroy Brooks suite and heating beneath the elegant tiles.
The top floor bedroom:
With the impact only great design within an historic setting can deliver, blonde treads to a staircase edged by dramatic dark wood with a glass wall lead up to the top of the house and a sunny, private room with windows at each end of the generous floorspace and glimpse of sea from the front. An oak unit surrounding a butlers sink is ideal for a third double bedroom, home office or artist studio, and a subtle cabinet in one corner conceals the electronic heart of the home.
