Yardley Street is a residential road of Victorian terraces, in an extremely convenient location, close to Preston Circus. This area is popular with both families and professional couples, as it has good local schools and excellent transport links. Brighton Station is within walking distance and London Road station is only a few minutes away. There is also a choice of bus routes on Ditchling Road or Beaconsfield Road. The Duke of York's Picture House, moments away, is Brighton’s oldest and much-loved cinema. London Road and Baker Street are home to many popular cafés and restaurants and the Open Market has plaza traders, independent shops and artist’s studios. This area is renowned for its wide choice of pubs, including the Open House, the Signalman and The Roundhill, just around the corner. You are also close to Preston Park which has two cafés, tennis courts, and a velodrome, as well as green spaces for picnics and gatherings and a fantastic children’s playground. Downs Infant and Junior schools are close by and you will be in the catchment area for the extremely popular Dorothy Stringer and Varndean secondary schools.
This wonderful family home is arranged over three levels and has fantastic reception spaces and four bedrooms, two of which are ensuite, as well as a beautiful garden. The house has been extended at the rear, across the full width of the property which has transformed the ground floor and provided very generous reception accommodation. At the front, there is a living room with a wood burning stove and a west-facing bay window. The floorboards have been stripped, both here and in the dining area. The living room, dining room and kitchen are effectively all open-plan and yet each area feels self-contained and the spaces flow effortlessly one to the other.
The kitchen is a light and extremely spacious room, with crittall-style, double-glazed, double doors, in an anthracite finish, which open to the garden. White gloss units are finished with a solid wood worktop, a gas five-burner hob sits above a double oven and there is an integrated dishwasher and space for a full height fridge freezer. The floor has ceramic tiles and there is underfloor heating. Step outside into a gorgeous landscaped garden. This is a really special space, that has beautiful mature trees including an olive, a bay and a corkscrew hazel. There is also fragrant jasmine and you are treated to an extraordinary display from the sumac tree in the neighbouring garden. Raised flowerbeds are arranged in the round, with integral seating around flagstones laid in a circular design. A pond with a water feature, perfectly finishes this serene space.
On the ground floor there is also a wet room with a shower, hand basin and WC, which has been cleverly incorporated when the space was reconfigured. On the first floor there are three bedrooms. The front room has an ensuite WC with hand basin and the rear bedroom is currently being used as a utility room. There is a sink, countertop and space and plumbing for a washing machine and space for a dryer. Finally on the top floor the loft has been converted to create a fantastic double bedroom with an ensuite bathroom.
