House For Sale £1,250,000
Fabulous from the immaculate Victorian frontage to a secret oasis of south facing double patio garden at the back, this beautifully proportioned three/four-bedroom house in fashionable Kemptown Village has a magnificent blend of period detail and designer finish throughout 4 stylish storeys providing 187sqm, 2,013sqf to enjoy. Less than 200 yards from the sea with Brighton College and the Royal Sussex Hospital a 4 and 7 minute walk respectively, the station to the airport and London is easy to reach so its location is perfect for professionals, families and investors. Inside, the elegant double reception is large enough for a grand piano and a quiet home office has French doors looking over the private garden. The lower floor, with its own access to the street, has an impressive reception (or spacious guest room) of its own, streamlined kitchen/diner, big, bright utility room and chic shower room, raising interesting options if you are looking for inter-generational living. Upstairs, all the bedrooms are generous doubles with their own character, and the magnificent principal suite is fit for a king! Never far from fresh coffee or a croissant, the shops and cafés of the Village are around the corner whilst a 15-minute scenic seafront stroll (or 5-minute taxi ride) will take you to the picturesque cultural heart of our legendary party resort.

Kemptown Village is a popular area of our fabulous coastal metropolis with an easy going, unpretentious vibe and all the local amenities you need including a farmers market. Only a stone’s throw from the sea and between the Pier and Marina you are tucked away from the tourists in a sought after, small terrace of four Victorian homes set privately back from the road behind front gardens where properties do not come onto the market often, and sell fast.
Inside the grand entrance, even the hallway is glamorous with a sweeping staircase, VIP attitude and guest cloakroom with designer wallpaper tucked away. Ahead, with a bay window at one end and tall south facing window framing garden views at the other, a living room of classic beauty spans an elegant 28’11 x 12’4 providing ample and inviting space with two handsome period fireplaces to enjoy. At the end of the hallway, a private study with room to share has French doors opening to the Sussex sunshine.
With its own entrance from the street, the lower ground floor was built in an age reliant on natural light, so has plenty of it with big rooms and large windows – and 526 square feet or 48.9m2 with its own separate access raises interesting possibilities if you’re looking for inter-generational living. Embracing family, friendship and the sunny garden, history meets contemporary style in a streamlined kitchen/diner which has been beautifully planned so guests can dine in relaxed seclusion whilst enjoying garden views. The designer finish includes high gloss units with a graceful curve, Quartz surfaces and a fabulous stainless range. A separate utility room has the same high quality finish with integrated washer and dishwasher, complete with a hose tap and access to the garden, and at the far end, the expert attention to detail continues in a chic shower room, which has a separate w.c with a door to the garden, ideal for parties!
It is rare to find a home where the garden is as sociable as the house itself, but this rare find is a south facing retreat in a city built mainly obliquely to the sea, ideal for the summertime al fresco lifestyle Brighton is famous for with an L shaped paved terrace with walled garden for relaxed entertaining which is also lit, both child and pet secure.
On the first floor, the peaceful bedroom at the back has open views and a fitted wardrobe on one side of a period fireplace. At the front, the magnificent principal bedroom is a restful refuge to return to at the end of the day. Light, airy and serene with a deep bay and willowy sash almost filling the front wall, 16’10 x 15’2 gives you plenty of floorspace to play with and there is an easy flow to a potential skilfully organised dressing room and on suite. Separate main bathroom with walk in shower and twin hand basins, toilet, separate bath with mixer taps. At the top of the house, the peaceful guest bedroom has plenty of character of its own with plentiful space under the eaves and dormer window framing characterful views.
Agent says:
“You won’t need to change a thing in this elegant home in this sought after area, affectionately nicknamed Chelsea by the Sea and which attracts professionals, families and international investors as it hosts Brighton College, the County Hospital, is close to the legal district and Amex as well as the city centre and station.”
Owner’s secret:
“Brighton is famous for its shopping, oyster bars and cultural centre as well as festivals celebrating our inclusive community, and the village is tucked away from the crowds of tourists close to the tennis courts, playground and pond of Queen’s Park with plenty of local cafés and amenities to choose from but just 10-15 minutes’ walk from the Lanes, so friends like to gather here whilst deciding where to explore”
Where it is:
Shops: Village 1 minute, Georgian Lanes & Marina 10 -15 minute walk
Train Station: Mainline 10 -15 minutes by bus
Seafront or Park: Seafront 2 minutes, Queen’s Park is about 7 minutes
Closest Schools:
Primary: St Luke’s, Queen’s Park
Secondary: Varndean or Dorothy Stringer
Private: Brighton College, Brighton Steiner, Brighton & Hove High, Roedean<br /><br />Kemptown Village is one of the most sought after locations within our international coastal resort bordered by beaches with a seasonal lift to deliver you to the sea – and beach bars and volleyball courts. Famous for its al fresco lifestyle, independent, specialist shops and a farmer’s market as well as a co-op, post office and chemist, Kemptown hosts the hospitals, Brighton College, law centres and Amex – as well as glamorous horse racing and waterfront restaurants of the Marina, but don’t forget that the theatres and Lanes of central Brighton are all within a 15-20 minute scenic stroll along the seafront or past the lively bars and restaurants of St James’ Street. Buses into the city, along the coast and to the universities are nearby and the proximity to Brighton train station with its fast link to Gatwick and London makes commuting possible. For those who need a car, both the A23/27 and coast road are easy to reach and at the time of writing permit zone C has no waiting list.
