House For Sale £595,000
On a large corner plot with gardens which sweep from east to west through south and off street parking for two cars, this semi-detached, three bedroom house is ideal for a growing family or if you like to entertain. Tucked away on a no through road with a friendly local high street at one end of the adjacent street and a park leading to downland at the other, this home within easy reach of the city centre is close to the sea - and the County Hospital is just a 15-20 minute walk or 4 mins by car. Inside has a stylish, contemporary finish including a recently installed kitchen, there’s a sociable layout which offers easy open plan living and a relaxed flow out to the sunny gardens, and all 3 bedrooms are doubles. With potential to grow with you, stnc, there is also a large attic to explore, and it’s worth noting that some neighbours have Velux in their roofline or dormer extensions.
Homes in this peaceful enclave of spacious 1930’s terraces near to some of our city’s largest employers and a choice of schools are a rare find as this seaside area attracts professionals, families and international investors with both the picturesque Lanes and station serving the airports and London a 10-15 minute cab ride, and now is the time to buy as work is underway to improve the neighbouring Black Rock beach and discussions are happening in relation to luxury residential homes on a nearby plot.
Known for their quiet convenience, this leafy enclave of residential streets have friendly shops including a pharmacy and small Co-Op around the corner. In an easy going, unpretentious area where new cafes and bars are popping up it has always been favoured by professionals seeking swift access to the sea and the city but peaceful nights, and investors are now noticing that this is a well-connected area with big, bright homes and gardens, bus routes to every part of the city as well as Sussex University, and the picturesque Lanes only 7-10 minutes by cab.
Built in Arts and Crafts 1930’s ‘Tudorbethan’ style with a timbered gable and broad tiled bays, this smart semi-detached house with energy efficient windows stands out even from its prosperous neighbours set privately back on the corner of the no through road behind two areas of off street parking – a rare find, and with no building directly next door, sunlight streams through this house on three sides, including the south.
Inside, an inviting hallway has views through to the garden, under stair storage and attractive oak flooring for a fuss free flow. A restful retreat, the L shaped ground floor has been opened up for a sun-lit, modern lifestyle where a living area has space work, rest or play and leads to a spacious dining area which opens to the garden, so guests can enjoy the view from both spaces at any time of year. Tucked safely away from the garden doors behind a sociable breakfast bar, the streamlined kitchen was fitted in October 2023 and delivers ample, practical storage and working surfaces. Beneath two levels of lighting, integrated appliances include a touch induction hob and electric oven beneath a discreet hood as well as a dishwasher and washing machine, and there is plenty of space for a tall fridge freezer – and the good news is that the vendors are willing to discuss the one in situ as they are relocating.
Outside, there is a paved breakfast terrace by the house with only one step to a large, level lawn which is child and pet friendly. Perfect for parties but also for every day, the garden is secure behind walls. The play area is watched over by a big, paved dining terrace facing south for the sun which also provides a footing for a gazebo as this really is a sun trap, and there is a gate for bikes or muddy paws by one of the off street parking places.
Returning inside, upstairs a bright central landing has storage and access to the attic with stylish, matching doors to all of the rooms radiating from it. At the back, the first of the double bedrooms is bright and cheerful with open views across gardens to the leafy acres, sports facilities and café of East Brighton Park – where footpaths lead to the South Downs. By it, the guest bedroom is light and airy looking over the garden, and across the hall, the chic bathroom has a large frosted window for privacy, a shower above the bath and a warming rail for towels and pyjamas. Next door, the principal bedroom is a sunny sanctuary at the end of the day, decorated in calm colours with a broad bay window giving a real feeling of space and almost a whole wall of wardrobes concealing sophisticated storage, so you won’t need to change a thing.
