Generous proportions, original features and exceptional views greet you in this three/four-bedroom Victorian townhouse. It sits perched on the hill in the Roundhill Conservation Area which has been favoured by families and professionals alike due to its palpable sense of community, excellent school catchment and easy access to the city centre and Brighton Station.

With an open aspect to the rear and wide bay sash windows, each room is filled with natural light and the open plan kitchen and living room leads out to a magical rear garden where plants thrive and there is space for dining alfresco or for children to play.
Inside, the house is homely using natural materials and a neutral palette to complement wood flooring, so it is ready to move straight into – yet there remains some scope for modernisation to add value, or the loft space is yet to be converted which could add a further two bedrooms and a bathroom if required.

With so many positive attributes, this spacious home is sure to attract many.

Why you’ll like it
Roundhill Conservation Area has an air of ‘cool’ and a unique energy much like its hilly neighbour Hanover. It has a diverse and welcoming community with a mix of families and professionals of all ages, plus being just ten-minutes from the North Laine Shopping District keeps it well connected to the creative heart of this cosmopolitan coastal city.

This attractive and substantial Victorian townhouse enjoys the classic plasterwork features and canted bay windows of the period, with steps leading up to the front door, or down to the second entrance on the lower ground level. Spread over three spacious floors, this house provides ample space for any growing family, offering a versatile layout which will evolve with you. There are reception rooms on the lower levels with access to either a balcony or the glorious garden, and further rooms which are flexible as bedrooms, offices, play rooms or work spaces.

Stepping inside, the period features continue with original floorboards in almost every room alongside classic cornicing, ceiling roses, decorative fireplaces, deep skirtings and sash windows which give this home plenty of character.

Within the raised ground floor there are two generous reception rooms with high ceilings and ample space for beds, sofas or work desks and chairs. Some choose to open these rooms to create one bright and sociable space but keeping them separate allows greater flexibility. The views to the rear are beautiful, taking your line of sight over the rooftops and trees of the city below open skies – views which only improve the further up the house you go.

To the rear of the ground floor, an office has been created with a wall of glazing opening to a sun-filled balcony which becomes an extension of the space during summer and a lovely spot to enjoy your morning coffee as the sun comes up over the hill. This room could become bedroom five if need be.

Downstairs, the lower ground floor does not feel ‘lower-ground’ in the slightest as it is open to the rear with a vast amount of natural light able to stream right through. To the front, the sitting room feels homely and cosy with a wood burning stove to warm the space during the cooler seasons, adding atmosphere to wintery suppers. There is ample space to dine alongside the kitchen which has a modern-country feel with timber cabinetry and solid oak worktops to echo the floor. Open shelving adds to the feeling of space and the appliances are freestanding. There is a separate utility room to the rear which also has access to the garden where a second seating area has been perfectly placed for privacy, surrounded by lush greenery.

The garden itself is surprisingly private for a terraced property due to mature planting on its walled borders. There is scent and colour throughout the year and plenty of space for children to play in safety on the lawn.
Returning inside, there are two further double bedrooms on the first floor alongside the family bathroom. Both bedrooms enjoy wooden floors, built-in wardrobes and original period features to include another fireplace with a decorative mantel. The bathroom nearby is spacious and light with a separate bath and shower from which you can enjoy the wonderful views over Brighton.

Agent’s thoughts:
Beautifully spacious, well-presented and maintained throughout, you could move straight in or let this property out immediately with ease. There remains scope to add value with additional modernisation and extension, plus the location is hugely popular, so it will generate a huge amount of interest and will not stay on the market for long.

Owner’s secret
“It was the space and light which first attracted us to the house when we bought it. It was later that we realised how wonderful the area was – and so convenient with the city and stations so close by. The garden and balcony are a joy in the summer and so private, which will be a wrench to leave, but we no longer need so much space.”
