House For Sale £625,000
A 3 minute stroll from Queen's Park and 5 from an excellent primary, this big four bedroom house with a spacious garden in which to spread your wings is tucked quietly away 10 minutes' walk from the sea and County Hospital in one of the most sought after areas of our famous city. A rare find, this charming home has an inviting blend of Victorian proportions and sociable 21st century layout with a ground floor opened and extended to create a family friendly room which is also ideal for sophisticated entertaining. Upstairs, two of the generous double bedrooms have glittering sea views over rooftops and this tempting package, which has Brighton College and vibrant al fresco lifestyle of Kemptown nearby, will attract professionals and international investors as the picturesque cultural heart of the city and station serving the airports and London are easy to get to on foot, by bus or cab.
Quiet but convenient with plentiful permit parking, this is one of the most popular conservation areas in our legendary coastal resort between the playground and sports facilities of Queen's Park and the independent shops and cafes of fashionable Kemptown Village, bordered by beaches.
Radiating a holiday atmosphere from the mature olive tree at the front to the sunny garden at the back, inside the hallway is welcoming with an impressively high ceiling and gleaming wood floor to give guests and children free reign, both features continuing through into a restful space of triple depth and minimalist design. With a broad south bay to bring in the Sussex sunshine and ample space in which to relax, work or play, this fuss free zone leads seamlessly into a charming kitchen diner where French doors open to the garden. Tucked away from the easy in/out flow, with space for a large table for informal dining or for homework to be completed as you cook, the kitchen is simple but stylish with family friendly work surfaces and a window so a discreet eye can be kept on guests, pets or children playing. Integrated appliances include a gas hob, hood, oven, wine rack and dishwasher, and one of the two discreet cupboards conceals plumbing for a machine.
Outside, the garden is a peaceful haven to retreat to at the end of a busy day and is a blank canvas just waiting for green fingers. Brighton is built on hills, and this large, lit sun deck is raised to catch the sun, made secure by walls and scented by honeysuckle and mature fuchsia, popular with butterflies and honeybees.
Returning inside, at the top of the stairs, the first of the bright bedrooms is a generous single or modest double with garden views and a vaulted ceiling, and great for guests as it is away from the other bedrooms, it would also be a private space in which to work from home. Next door, the contemporary bathroom has a white suite, waterfall taps and rainfall shower head above the bath.
Up a few steps, the second bedroom is light and airy with garden views and fitted wardrobe in an alcove. At the front of the house, the second bedroom spans the full width of this substantial property with two broad windows which reaching the ceiling to bring in the glittering city and a glimmer of sea, restful decoration and a whole wall of wardrobes. At the top, the master bedroom is a glorious, sun drenched hideaway with a chic en suite shower room and four Velux in the south wall framing sparkling views of the English Channel whilst French doors open to a romantic Juliette balcony and a forest of gardens at the back.
Agent says:
"Convenient for the city but away from noisy pubs and clubs, this quiet area attracts professionals and families wanting a healthy lifestyle and good schools for their children. The house is far bigger than its neat exterior suggests and everything you need is within walking distance."
Owner's secret:
"This has been a happy house where we have enjoyed many celebrations both inside and out. Family life is made easy with the park, good schools and shops all within easy reach. There is a friendly, inclusive community of all different ages and we have a blog to share news, events and recommend builders etc. In the summer, the beach becomes a second home, and friends love to come back after a hot day to enjoy the quiet garden."
