Why you'll like it:
Sophisticated design using expensive materials and experienced craftmanship has created a fabulous home where deceptively simple elegance masks a skilled commitment to practical function. With an astounding 2841.34 square feet to play with, strong lines are accentuated by banks of energy efficient windows and doors.
An intelligent reimagining of the classic retro style this beautiful house has glass walls to bring the light and views into the heart of the home, an exacting finish and the best of 21st century fittings including a bespoke German kitchen with top of the range appliances, polished concrete resin flooring in the luxury bathrooms with underfloor heating and high grade engineered oak in the main living areas.
The ground floor:
Flawless design starts at the front of the house where there is a door to a large boot room and luggage drop for the family and a second, broad entrance opens to an attractive porch with flint and brick walls for guests, leading to a light filled atrium with a vaulted skylight and access to the quiet home office where even usb points have been considered.
Comfortable for the family as well as having plenty of space for sophisticated entertaining, the elegant reception is lined with windows to bring in the sun and frame glimpses of the sea. Fuss free and spanning the back of the building it is an inviting refuge with a wood burner and party perfect, it opens to a sunny balcony with fabulous views which becomes an extension of the room for al fresco suppers beneath the sunsets during summer. With ambient lighting around the floating ceiling and above shelving, especially commissioned doors slide across to reveal the spacious south facing dining room where guests can dine in complete seclusion whilst enjoying the glittering English Channel, and this space in turn rolls open to the kitchen diner for a seamless social flow.
With a wall of glass folding away to a Juliette balcony looking over the garden and surrounding woodland, the glamorous kitchen revolves around a deep central island which seats four in comfort by a wine cooler and also has an integrated Siemens touch induction hob beneath an Elica hood. Black matt glass and textured Haker units provide ingenious storage whilst the Calacatta quartz worktops are family friendly and gleam beneath a choice of lighting levels. Creative attention to detail includes a Siemens micro/combi with a warming drawer and a fan oven at eye level, and a dishwasher close to the pull out recycling and rubbish store.
A practical family home, the utility area is tucked away with direct access to the double garage, so sports/riding kits can go straight into the washing machine.
Three spacious bedrooms and luxury bathroom:
At the foot of a statement staircase, a hushed landing in the subtle tones of Little Greene instantly soothes and introduces you to the absolute peace and privacy delivered by these skilled, architect owners. At one end of the hallway, the restful, dual aspect guest room with fitted wardrobes is on the prime southwest corner and opens to the large terrace which wraps around the building from south to west.
Across the hall, the luxury bathroom is designer from top to toe with high end fittings including a freestanding slipper bath with a shower attachment, chic limestone tiling and polished concrete floor concealing underfloor heat. Not to be outshone, two more stylish bedrooms are ready to move into, one with a birds eye view over the garden to the surrounding trees and the other over the leafy south terrace.
The principle suite:
A door across the hallway effectively forms an inner sanctuary where the principle bedroom spans a generous 22'9'' x 25'4'' (6.02m x 3.67m) and has bi-folding doors stretching from floor to ceiling which unfurl to the south terrace. Calm decoration keeps the focus on the relaxing open view to woodland which changes with the seasons, whilst both fitted closets and an 8' x 8' dressing room provide all the clothes space you could dream of. Ready to refresh and restore, the magnificent en suite with heating underfoot is large enough for both an elliptical baignoir and wet room style shower with power jets and both a drench head and wand. Perfect.
The grounds:
Sitting in a sizeable plot invisible from the street, once the remote control gate at the front is closed these grounds are child and pet secure. At the front the hard standing has space for several cars and the double garage has power and water tap outside.
At the back, the garden spreads its wings over three big tiers with paved lit terraces wrapping around the house which can also be reached by a discrete staircase from ground level. With film star views they are ideal for Mediterranean style entertaining and step down to a bespoke pool, heated by an eco-sensitive ground source heat pump with a poolside shower and changing room made private by exotic planting.
Below, a lawn has a tree for a house or a hammock, a pond for butterflies and dragon flies and full of birdsong, it is scented by an apple tree. At the base of steps which double as beds for herbs, vegetables and fruit for the table, a home office with a sensor lit patio offers flexible options.
Hove Park is an exclusive area of the city between the beaches of our legendary coastal resort and the 1,627km2 of country walks, bridle paths and star filled nights of the South Downs National Park. Although the vibrant city centre is just minutes away, this sought after road is quiet and safe with plenty of amenities nearby. Local schools are good including the Bilingual school and there's easy access to some of the best private schools in the country as well, including Lancing Prep and Brighton College. Hove Park itself is nearby with a playground and café full of local parents as well as 3 football pitches, 7 tennis courts and a basketball court. Brighton, Preston Park and Hove Stations serving the airports and London are all easy to reach by car, bus or cab and the A23/M23 as well as the A27 to the Amex Stadium are quick to get to.
