Why you’ll like it:
Enjoy a coastal, inclusive lifestyle in this sought after conservation area in a chic spot where local amenities include cafés, bistro pubs, a butcher’s and a bookstore as well as a pharmacy and a weekly farmer’s market, and if you are a health professional or commute, shops including a small Co-Op open early and close late.

Designed to be in keeping with the dainty Victorian cottages opposite, this discreet town house is very appealing and already has energy efficient windows- and this great combination of style with an eye on ease of maintenance continues inside.

Inside, a lobby leads to a bright and cheerful kitchen where time is on your side to create the kitchen of your dreams, and you have 3.21 x 2.41m (10’6 x 7’10) to play with. Along the hall, the elegant living dining room has stylish colour choice and space to share -4.41 x 3.63m (14’5 x 11’10) - where French doors open to a sunny, vaulted conservatory which frames the south facing patio – a feature hard to find in a city usually built obliquely to the sea. Outside, the paved patio is ideal for friends to spill out to – and it’s the perfect place for them to gather before walking out to explore our vibrant coastal city.

There are two peaceful bedrooms on the first floor. The first double of 2.65 x 2.39m (8’8 x 7’10) looks over the delightful garden and next door a third generous single with mirrored wardrobes is used as a dressing room, although with 2.39 x 1.75m (7’10 x 5’8) it could also be a comfortable place from which to work from home.

Central to this floor, the spacious bathroom has all you need including a shower above the bath and warming rails for towels.

At the front, the light and airy principal bedroom spans 4.52 x 2.73m (14’9 x 8’11), which is the full width of the house, with two large windows bringing in views of the pretty lane. There is sophisticated storage behind mirrored doors and there’s also a chic, en -suite shower room.
On the lower floor, there’s a big utility room, a w.c. For guests and access to the lit garage, which has remote control gates to the adjacent street.

Agent says:
“Ideal as a home or for holidays, this is a quiet but central location with easy access to our city’s main employers including the hospitals, legal quarter and Amex - and the famous al fresco, coastal lifestyle of the Village is on the doorstep.”

Owner’s secret:
“On a quiet road, there are plenty of cafés, bistro pubs and restaurants to choose from just around the corner. Inside all of the rooms are light and spacious – and we love the secure parking which gives us peace of mind when we’re away – and you can buy visitor permits for guests. The neighbours are friendly and considerate and you can walk to the Lanes either along the seafront or St. James’s Street which hosts pride. It’s worth going to the Marina as well which has cinemas, waterfront restaurants, a casino and a health club, and you can stroll to the Royal Pavilion in 15 mins and cab back in 5.’
