House For Sale £500,000
Built in the 1930's, this big, bright house with off street parking for two cars has three comfortable double bedrooms and a large, sunny garden which faces west and is open to the south. Child and pet friendly with engineered oak flooring and double glazing throughout, restful colours and a fuss free layout make it a welcoming refuge – and with a large attic it has room to grow STC. Set in a small, sought after cul de sac with a choice of popular schools and East Brighton's country walks and sports facilities around the corner these spacious homes do not come on the market often – and sell fast as there is also a friendly local high street with a variety of amenities including a small Co-Op. Close to the beach and waterfront restaurants, cinemas and health club of the Marina, this area attracts professionals, families and investors as local bus routes run past the County Hospital to the station or to the universities, and now is the time for buy as plans are under discussion to develop the neighbouring Black Rock.
Outside, this attractive house is set privately back from the quiet no through road behind a smart hard standing with space for two cars and has immediate appeal with broad bays – now double glazed, Sussex hung tiles and timbered gables. Sheltered by a porch, the front door has charming stain glass roses and inside, the hallway is inviting with glass doors ahead allowing the light to stream through, a large cupboard for coats and bags and gleaming oak flooring which continues into the elegant living room.
Stretching from front to back with a sunny east/west orientation, the living room is a welcoming refuge with a broad bay at one end and a wall of glass at the other to bring the outside in. Lined with classic cabinets this is a restful room in which to unwind or dine with friends and there is a charming, classic style fireplace with a shell motif to enjoy. Next door, the bright and cheerful kitchen has an international flavour with a fabulous reflective units, plenty of practical working surfaces and steel detail. User friendly, it is good to go with integrated gas hob, hood and fan ovens.
Outside, the big sunny garden is ideal for the alfresco lifestyle our legendary coastal city is known for with a dining deck to one side and shingle space for herbs and plants on the other. Child and pet secure it is a glorious sun trap, scented by honeysuckle and butterfly friendly with a mature buddleia.
Returning inside, upstairs a broad landing has access to the large attic, giving food for thought as many neighbouring properties have gone up. At the back two double bedrooms each have space, fitted wardrobes and garden views. At the front, the spacious principle bedroom is a calm haven at the end of a busy day with a broad bay almost filling the east wall to bring in the morning sunshine, a whole wall of wardrobes providing all the clothes space you could dream of and chic designer paper. Next door, the bathroom is simple but stylish with a white suite, shower attachment on the bath and luxurious chrome heated rails for towels.
