House For Sale £500,000
5 mins walk from an outstanding primary school, 10 from Queen’s Park’s playground, tennis courts and café, and 10 -20 from Brighton General, Brighton College and the County Hospital (all 1--4 mins by car) this semi-detached 3 bed family house has picture perfect views sweeping over woodland to the sea.
The sunny gardens have a secure bike store at the front and a home office tucked away in the landscaped oasis at the back, whilst inside bright and cheerful rooms offer a sociable, contemporary lifestyle with the beach, the lanes and direct trains to Gatwick and London within a 3-9 min radius.
Good to go, an inviting living dining room opens to the garden for sophisticated entertaining and the stylish eat-in kitchen is well- planned and user friendly. Outside the southeast oasis is child and pet secure, and the home office has power and access to wi-fi via a booster. The spacious bathroom has a separate w.c for busy mornings, and all the double bedrooms are ready to move into, the principal with restful views to the coast and a chic en-suite shower.
Quiet but convenient with plentiful permit parking and a choice of bus routes, this is a central point in our city with Elm Grove and Warren Road at the top of the hill to take you to the historic North Laine, to the A23/27 or out to the National Park whilst Freshfield Road will take you into Kemptown and its beaches or to Eastern Road and the Royal Pavilion within minutes.
Queen’s Park is a great place to be with a relaxed vibe and all the local amenities you need including café’s, bistro pubs and small supermarkets dotted around. Tucked away from the tourists who flock to our legendary resort you are still within easy reach of all it has to offer – and on a broad, leafy avenue on a hill with no building directly behind it, this semi-detached home with double glazing enjoys uninterrupted light.
Set privately back from the street behind a gated fence, a large front garden is full of the joys of spring and there is a big storeroom for bikes, paddleboards and tents etc. Inside the inviting hallway sets the stylish yet practical tone of the interior with crisp décor, ample storage to both right and left, and fuss free flooring which continues straight into the kitchen for supermarket deliveries.
Bright, cheerful and looking over the garden at the front of the house, the contemporary kitchen is a classic which will stand the test of time, and has space for a pull out table for breakfast. Well-planned, everything flows from the central gas hob and electric oven beneath a lit hood, the fridge and freezer are integrated for you and plumbing is in place for a dishwasher and a washing machine.
Next door, sunlight streams through the spacious living dining room where both a large window and French doors frame the garden – and a glorious view which sweeps over woodland and the racecourse to the sea, so you can unwind in blissful seclusion and enjoy the changing of the seasons. Inside painted floorboards ensure an easy in/out flow and there’s also useful, built in shelving.
Outside, the large garden is a southeast facing suntrap, beautifully landscaped about 5 years ago for a sociable, al fresco lifestyle and to maximise enjoyment of the stunning setting. By the house, a sun deck is ideal for dining, scented by fresh herbs for the table in a raised bed, and it steps down to a spacious, south facing seating area which has discreet storage beneath it. At the far end of this secret oasis, a lawn is level (a feature hard to find in a city built on hills) and made private by fencing.
Child and pet secure with a firepit for camping, it is unusually long in an area so close to the sea and the city. At the very far end surrounded by a little orchard of fig, pear, apple and damson trees, the home office is a private retreat with an insulated roof, solid wood floor, double glazing and internet access via a booster from the house which currently has a super fibre connection.
Returning inside, at one end of the hallway a w.c and handbasin is tucked away whilst at the other a family bathroom has all you need including a shower above the bath and natural light.
Upstairs, a central landing has access to the attic (which some neighbours have converted, stnc.) Two light double rooms are simple but stylish and look across the cherry blossom of the front garden to the broad street. All about relaxing with a restful backdrop, the principal bedroom has picture perfect views. There is plenty of floorspace for wardrobes with one already built in, and there is a secret shower en-suite. Perfect!

“Our secret is out! This big bright house with a fantastic garden, a home office and glorious views is in a favourite location with swift access to the South Downs and the sea, parks and good schools but also sought after by professionals who work in the city or commute as although it is quiet at night it is easily connected to the whole of Brighton & Hove and the A23/A27 and airports.”
Owner’s Secret:
“We can walk to an outstanding school, Queen’s Park and both Brighton General and County Hospital - and have shops on the doorstep! We fell for the big, bright rooms, the amazing views and the sunny garden and saw we could create our dream home- which we would take it with us if we could! We wanted to keep it simple and easy to live in, and we hope you enjoy the flowing layout, all on one level on the ground floor which has been perfect for young children as well as for entertaining. We wanted the house and especially the garden to be comfortable as we wanted it to be another ‘room’ – and we do spend the summers outside! The home office has been a boon as it is quiet and private, and it is still under guarantee! This is a great place to live with lovely neighbours, and the park has a readymade community of joggers, dog walkers and tennis players as well as local families. At the top of the hill the location is far more convenient than it may seem – in 5 minutes you’re at the Royal Pavilion or the Level so the station is 9 mins by cab or a pleasant 15 minute cycle, and there are 3 bus routes to choose from. As we are relocating, we are happy to discuss items in the house which you think may be of use to you.”
