In brief

With its distinctive yellow brick frontage with terracotta detailing and large bay windows, Wilbury Crescent was built on the turn of the 20th century. Reassuringly elegant, all rooms are generously proportioned with high ceilings and large windows for optimal natural light while original features of architraves, period fireplaces, decorative ceiling cornices and ceiling roses exude this home’s historic past.

A cool toned colour palette compliments the refined welcoming décor of this considerable family home. Arranged over three floors, the property briefly consists of two reception rooms, an immaculately presented and extended kitchen/dining room and ground floor w/c. Upstairs, there are five double bedrooms, three with contemporary en-suites and a large family bathroom. A handy utility room and fully-powered summer house complete this impressive home.

Ground floor

Wilbury Crescent boasts an appealing approach; set back from the road, an immaculate yellow brick façade creates an instant wow factor that is equally matched by the interior of this villa. Situated on a quiet tree-lined road in Hove, a large paved driveway leads up to this striking period home. Sympathetically decorated throughout, this is a beautiful example of contemporary living in a period property.

On entering, an excellently presented hallway with exquisite wood flooring provides access to all ground floor rooms as well as offering a handy spot to store outdoor shoes and coats. To the front is a sizeable reception room, the room is predominantly decorated in a contemporary shade of inky blue with pristine white used to unite a vast range of period characteristics; a distinctive bay window with voguish plantation shutters pours light into the room accentuating the space with feature fireplace posing as a focal point. A second, equally well-proportioned reception room is situated adjacent.

At the rear is a considerable kitchen and dining room, arranged in a classic L-shape modular design with a large central island unit. A shaker style kitchen decorated in contemporary navy wraps around the far side of the room, complemented by Corian countertops and brushed brass handles. Offering capacious proportions, the room has been cleverly constructed taking full advantage of space; fitted with a range of in-built shelving and cupboards, a discrete ground floor w/c and a designated dining area. The kitchen has the benefit of a double range cooker, an integrated dishwasher, an enviable wine cooler, ample countertop and cupboard space. Reaping the very most from the afternoon sun, the kitchen leads on to a delightful terrace and garden via a chic Crittal glass wall and French doors; the ideal spot for al fresco dining in the summer months. Handy under stair storage cupboards are accessible from the hallway.

Upstairs

The staircase runs up from the entrance hall and gives access to all first and second-floor rooms from the landing. There are three double bedrooms on the first floor with the main bedroom to the front benefiting from a large bay window with plantation shutters and high ceilings. The room boasts a private en-suite shower room and a separate dressing room. A second double bedroom is positioned adjacent overlooking the garden. There is a third spacious double bedroom with a bay window and a feature fireplace situated to the rear. Housed on the half landing, there is a sophisticated family bathroom with a magnificent freestanding bathtub and a walk-in shower. The loft has been seamlessly converted to accommodate two generously-sized bedroom suites, each has been fitted with a modern en-suite shower or bathroom with the largest room benefiting from an abundance of eaves storage.

Outside

Sleek glass-panelled doors fold back to reveal a south facing garden with a spacious terrace and a large lawn. The space is a great size; a genuine suntrap, it’s the ideal spot for al fresco lunches in the summer.
