House For Sale £625,000
**guide price £625,000 - £650,000**
Showcasing stylish contemporary design at its best, this big bright 1930's house has been totally transformed into a glamorous home ideal for entertaining in trans- Atlantic style. A spacious ground floor opens to a sun terrace and sunny west garden, and flows around to a fabulous kitchen diner where a Juliette balcony also enjoys the grounds. Upstairs three quiet bedrooms are all generous doubles and on a quiet, friendly cul de sac it even has off street parking. With shops, cafés, park and school around the corner, these large 1930's homes are rarely on the market. Close to the Marina and the beach, local bus routes run past the County Hospital to the station and there are plans under discussion to develop the neighbouring Black Rock.
**guide price £625,000 - £650,000**
Outside, this substantial house with energy efficient windows in broad bays looks traditional, but then the smart hard standing and hung tiles painted to match the strong lines of the side gate give a hint of the attention to detail incorporated into the fabulous, feel-good internal design.
Setting the clean, contemporary tone, the hallway has crisp lines of oak underfoot whilst three under stair cupboards keep the space uncluttered. To your right, a streamlined door opens to a sophisticated living space with the wow factor as soon as you walk in. Two rooms have become one to create a light and airy space for entertaining where the architectural steel joist is celebrated in technicolour and there is ambient lighting with a choice of levels. Sunshine streams through the bay at the front, whist the far wall glides open to a lit sun terrace by the house making al fresco dining easy.
Sociable but brilliantly planned so the chef can chat but the working area does not dominate the living space, the sleek kitchen is connected to the main room but tucks around the corner with space for a breakfast table by French doors to a Juliette balcony bringing the verdant garden in. Lustrous white units are topped by white surfaces and in glamorous la style, it is easy to work in with a choice of lighting for when the evening is to be one of romance. Ready to party, all of the appliances are integrated for you and include a gas hob, hood, combi and fan ovens at eye level – so no awkward lifting- and a dishwasher, and there are even a washer and a drier carefully hidden away.
Outside, the delightful landscaped garden is a scented sun trap with a paved, lit dining terrace by the house stepping down past a tinkling fountain in a raised fishpond to a second paved area which gets the evening sunshine. Made private by ingenious planting for all year interest, steppingstones cross the child and pet friendly lawn and lead to a private area behind a trellis where two large storage sheds are out of sight.
Inside, light pours through a quiet first floor where at the back, the first of the double bedrooms has restful, open views over rooftops to Race Hill and is generous enough to be used as a gym. Next door, a luxury bathroom has a magnificent Jacuzzi bath with a shower above it and a sculptural radiator which will also warm towels. Spanning the whole width of the house, the master bedroom face is a peaceful refuge to return to. Facing east for the morning sunshine and right on trend, opaque glass and mirrored doors front a whole wall of wardrobe space, so you have all the storage you could dream of and the chic en suite is intended to revive and restore with a shower, shaving point and heated rail.
Private and peaceful at the top, the guest suite invites company with ample floor space even with a double bed in it, Velux to both the east and west so it is welcoming all day, and a chic en suite where visitors can shower at leisure beneath the stars.
Agent says:
"One of Brighton's best kept secrets, this well connected area has been recently discovered by those wanting space, parking and a garden so those few homes which come on the market are selling quickly, especially since plans are under discussion to develop neighbouring Black Rock."
Owner's Secret:
"Sunny and spacious in a quiet but connected location, neighbours have become friends and with the local shops there is a real sense of community here. We've enjoyed creating this bright and sociable home and although you're close to the city, it's easy to leave work behind relaxing on the sun terrace or pottering in the garden."
