Property description

Stunning Victorian splendour, built in 1897 by Alfred Over as one of a terrace of seven houses in the same style. However he built this one for his family and it’s double-fronted with all the best Victorian features
of the time.

Fiveways is a vibrant area with local shops and cafés, it is only a short walk away, as are Downs Junior and Infant schools, both with excellent reputations. It is on a bus route into town whilst London Road station is closeby for anyone needing to commute. Blakers and Preston Park are also in easy walking distance, both have superb recreational facilities, play areas and
cafés.

There are superb opportunities in this house to combine a working and living environment with a large studio/workshop at the side of the house and several rooms suitable as office space. The stunning loft conversion has far reaching views over Brighton and the viaduct. There is a gorgeous bathroom, perfect for unwinding and relieving the stresses of the day in your very own sanctuary plus a modern shower room. The 'afternoon' room is currently used as an office features a triple opening sash window which open onto a patio area.

The atmosphere in the house and garden is calm and peaceful, partly contributed by the current owners natural flare for the arts. Other benefits include its own driveway, for easy off-street parking and 'Eco' solar panels to provide hot water.

What the Owner says:When we saw this house we knew it was something special and everyone who comes in for the first time says "what a beautiful house!"
Built in 1897 with the original wallpaper and floor tiles in the hall, stained glass in the door and Victorian fireplaces in nearly every room, this house was special enough to feature on TV in ‘Picture the Perfect House’.
Although we have made our own improvements, it is a bit of a ‘Tardis’ and its spacious accommodation offers still unexplored potential.
We are only moving to the end of the garden where we will be building our new home!
