No expense has been spared to create a restful environment where 183m2 (1970 sq. ft.) over three storeys deliver flexible options should you work from home or are looking for inter-generational living. On the ground floor, a glamorous living/dining room with a high end Schmidt kitchen unfolds to the garden for entertaining whilst on the floor below, there’s a utility room and one of the two private bedrooms, each with access to the luxury bathroom, is currently used as a media room. Upstairs, ceilings soar to over 3meters, two more family bedrooms are peaceful and private and the serene principal bedroom, en-suite, is blissfully quiet. Popular for its quiet convenience, this exclusive location is within the golden triangle just 10-15 minutes’ drive from our famous pebble beaches and between London Road which takes you into Brighton, Hove or the A23/A27 in minutes, and Ditchling Road which takes you to the Level at the foot of the vibrant North Laine or to open countryside.

Why You’ll Like It:
The wow factor starts with the 63 acres of Preston Park behind you and continues as you sweep up the drive to this small, gated development which is completely invisible from the Avenue. The remote-controlled gate gives peace of mind whilst you’re away, and there is a allocated parking space and plentiful on street parking despite its central location.
The Entrance Hall, Family Kitchen/Dining/Living
Room and Utility:
Inside, the big hallway is a streamlined beauty with fabulous porcelain tiles inviting company and which also conceal underfloor heat – which features throughout this level. A discreet cloakroom/boot room with a luggage drop cupboard is tucked away and ahead, spanning the whole of the back of the house, the fabulous family kitchen/living room folds open to the garden, ideal for entertaining. With an astonishing 27’5 x 23’8 (8.36m x 7.22m) to enjoy just in the living/dining area, there is ample space for family time as well as for guests who can relax in rare seclusion looking over the garden, and the high end Schmidt kitchen is skilfully planned with the working space tucked away from the social flow by a breakfast bar – but which also has French doors for easy al fresco hosting.
Lined with windows, the kitchen is bright, cheerful and good to go with streamlined units offering efficient storage solutions and plenty of high grade quartz surfaces. A gift for gourmets, integrated appliances include a touch induction hob beneath a hood, a micro/grill/combi oven and a fan ‘slide and hide’ self-clean oven at eye level, a dishwasher, fridge and freezer and a wine cooler. As you would expect of a build of this quality, there is a spacious utility area hidden away on the lower level.
The Garden:
An oasis of calm surrounded by a sea of gardens, the beautiful garden at the back is expertly landscaped with imaginative planting for all year interest and made child and pet secure by fencing and gates to the side. Absolutely private and connected to the house by bi-folding doors, a paved dining terrace is level with the property – something surprisingly hard to find in a city built on the South Downs. Lit at night, these grounds are a secluded haven sheltered by the rustle of bamboo and mature trees, ideal for the al fresco lifestyle our famous south coast in known for, and two shallow, broad steps lead to sparkling path with a lawn for play on one side and a discreet pond with a water feature, carefully constructed so it would be easy to install a security net. At the far end, a sun deck faces west for the afternoon and evening sunshine and rises to the lit terrace in front of the garden room which has a sun-lit 3.12m x 2.86m (10’3 x 9’5) as well as wi-fi access to inspire ideas.
Two Double Bedrooms and Luxury Bathroom, Lower Level:
Downstairs, which also has underfloor heat, two generous bedrooms are both completely private – an asset valued in a city favoured by celebrities- and both are light and airy with French doors in each opening to secluded light wells. Ideal for teens who like to come in late, for visitors and/or for an au-pair as they could come and go without disturbing the main house, between the two, so they don’t share a wall, a luxury Jack and Jill bathroom has sensor lighting with a Scandi finish and a shower above the bath.
The First Floor Family Bedrooms and Bathroom:
At the top of a sculptural oak and glass staircase, the second bathroom shimmers in designer tiling. With a warming rail for towels and nightclothes, there is a shower over the bath and there is a vanity unit below the hand basin and lit, film star mirror above it. Quiet and comfortable, the bedroom on the southwest corner has panels of glass to frame the leafy front garden and a distant cityscape which glitters at night, and fitted wardrobes are in place. At the back of the house, with open garden views, the hushed fourth bedroom is also ready to move into with built in storage, and as both are spacious, there shouldn’t be any ‘lively discussions’ over allocation!
The Principal Suite and Shower Room:
All about relaxing in a stunning setting, the principal bedroom is a dream come true. The ceiling soars to over 3 meters above your head and triple windows to the south and east bring in the morning sun and restful views over the garden. Dual aspect it is always a soothing haven to return to, the wardrobes are built into the apex of the roof, and the en-suite shower room has a VIP attitude. Perfect.
Agent Says:
In a unique setting by Preston Park, this 2017 home is built to exacting standards of ethical and efficient energy conservation with high specification acoustic and heat insulation, air circulation systems within the bathrooms, underfloor heating on the ground and lower floor and LED lighting throughout. Solar panels provide the electricity, and work in conjunction with all other features to ensure that the energy bills are as low as possible.
Owner’s Secret:
“We are very fortunate to have Preston Park literally on the doorstep – and we have enjoyed it every day! We have also loved the freedom of the security and privacy of this small, friendly development whilst within easy reach of the sea and the city. Light, airy and tranquil, this has been a very happy home which is easy to live in, and we have enjoyed plenty of parties celebrating birthdays and holidays here! As it is a contemporary build we have never needed to worry about maintenance, and we appreciate the eco- sensitive ethos behind the design which also makes it cool in summer but warm in winter. My favourite place is the garden room as I could sit in the evening sun with a book after work, and my partner loves his media room where he can have friends over! With so much space, we were always able to welcome family when they wanted to stay over-we could easily collect them from the station and with local bus routes and everything within a cab ride they could be independent when they wanted and depending on numbers, they had their own living room which was important to us. Although it is so quiet here, everything you need- restaurants, stations, the beach and cinemas are all within easy reach, and you can be in the National Park within minutes.”
