If you want swift access into or out of the city but quiet nights, this fabulous end of terrace house with a big sunny garden, six bedrooms and stylish interior is a great find with spacious rooms and double glazed windows which frame glorious views at the back and ensure a warm welcome even in winter. Bright and cheerful with an astounding 1236 square feet to enjoy, it has a sociable kitchen/diner flowing into a sunroom which opens to broad, west facing terraces and a child and pet friendly lawn. There is a restful living room/home office and the top floor could easily transform into the principal suite of your dreams with a dressing room and central shower room (already there) as you would still have four bedrooms and second shower room in the house…STC. Ideal for a family with a bedroom on the ground floor for older visitors it will appeal to professionals and families with free, on street parking which is restricted on matchdays at the nearby Amex Stadium. Bevendean is well known for its sense of community with local shops, popular primary school, Bevendean Down Nature Reserve and a recreation field, and close to– but out of hearing of- the Lewes Road, you can be into the centre of Brighton in minutes and Lewes, Gatwick and London are all a viable commute.
Set back and down from the quiet road, inside this private, end of terrace house is far bigger than its neat exterior suggests and with windows on three sides, light pours in. Inside, the central lobby has tiles underfoot which continue beneath a skylight and into a stunning kitchen/diner which invites company with a big, built in table and separate breakfast bar, and stylish wall mural by Art & Believe. With streamlined white units matched with dark practical surfaces, the fabulous Flavel touch induction oven is integrated for you, plumbing is in place for both a washing machine and a drier, and there is designated space for two tall fridge freezers – which all could stay, subject to circumstance.
Around the corner, sunlight streams through a sunroom with space to share which is perfect as a playroom or for entertaining as glazed doors in the west wall slide across bring the outside in. Outside, broad stairs with a sturdy handrail take you down to wide, paved dining terraces and an inspiring big, blank canvas of a child and pet friendly lawn, scented by a mature lilac and level for play – a feature hard to find in a city built on the South Downs.
Returning inside, a door by the dining area opens to a quiet living room – or comfortable home office- and just off the entrance hall, the first of the double bedrooms is ideal for guests as they can come and go without disturbing the main house. On the top two floors, all five light and airy bedrooms have fitted storage for clothes and a built in table, and those at the back have amazing open views over the leafy valley to the city so they are completely private too. At the top, the vaulted bedroom would be a peaceful principal as it has the most floorspace as well as a side window and Velux to bring in the night sky, and with both a nearby bedroom and chic shower room it could easily transform into the glamorous main suite of your dreams as you would still have four bedrooms and a second shower room in the house.
