Upstairs, the first of the luxury bathrooms is large enough for both a bath and separate shower, and the commitment to detail continues in the beautiful principal bedroom, en-suite.

This location has a great buzz, its eclectic mix of exotic street food from around the globe, vintage clothing, antique shops, independent boutiques, arts venues and fresh produce a magnet for locals and visitors.

Why you’ll like it:
Dive straight into Brighton’s fashionable coastal lifestyle in this great location with fresh local produce, shops, cafés and restaurants on your doorstep – and permit parking with no waiting list! This spacious terraced house was skilfully refurbished in 2021 with underfloor heating on all 4 storeys, new bathrooms, and the creation of a fabulous extended lower floor kitchen/dining/breakfast and living area -all done to an exacting standard.

Outside, this double glazed, prettily painted home radiates charm and inside, the inviting colour choice continues in the hallway - where even the tiles are included within the whole house underfloor heat. Ahead, the first of the two ground floor bedrooms is a classic beauty of elegant proportion where the chimney breast has been removed to create more floorspace than is usual. A large bay window bathes the room with light and it’s decorated in the historic hues of Farrow & Ball. Next door, the second room on this floor is also a comfortable double bedroom with garden views and space for study.

Downstairs, A glorious, sun-lit sanctuary spanning a stunning 3.14 x 9.5m (10’4 x 31’2), the kitchen dining family room is a study of great design with the kitchen area bridging the patio garden and the house, perfect for seamless entertaining both inside and out. Sussex sunshine pours through a large, vaulted skylight, the west wall of glass folds away to bring the outside in, and there is plenty of space for a big family table as well as sofas with a choice of different coloured lighting for the evenings. High spec, the glamorous kitchen area is bordered by a social breakfast island with a high-spec Faber touch induction hob with a central extractor built in to face the dining room, and the smooth, composite stone surface is not only hardy but hygienic. Streamlined units deliver sophisticated storage solutions, top grade appliances include twin Neff grill/fan ovens with warming trays in a tower and a fridge, freezer, dishwasher and washing machine are integrated for you.

Outside the patio is an oasis of calm at the heart of the city, ideal for a relaxed al fresco lifestyle you don’t need to travel for! Facing west and open to the south it’s a sociable, sunny extension of the house and the perfect spot for friends to meet before or after a day at the beach or exploring our vibrant coastal city at night. With a tiled floor to match those in the kitchen and level with the house for an easy in/out flow, (a feature not always easy to find in a city built on the South Downs), a small area is covered and down lit with space for a store so you don’t need to get wet if it’s raining. Raised beds with wired in power are planted for all year interest and are also skilfully designed for ease of maintenance so you’ll have more time to enjoy it.

Returning inside, a chic visitor’s w.c. Featuring ‘Frutto Prohibito’ wallpaper by Cole & Son is discreetly tucked away.

Up on the first floor, at the front of the house the principal bedroom is secluded, serene and spans this substantial property from side to side. The meticulous commitment to skilled design and quiet relaxation continues in here, where the decoration is calm and the wall of custom built wardrobes are mirrored. The chic en-suite shower room has a designer finish which includes golden brushed brass fittings, including the waterfall shower head, the warming rails for towels and glamorous Italian tiling.

Next door, the family bathroom raises the bar for family bathing with a sleek freestanding bath with a wand attachment set on a waterproof, polished concrete scree floor. The room is large enough for a separate walk in shower with a dual head shower system and a designer hand basin rests upon a contemporary vanity unit with a lit mirror above it. There are warming rails for towels, tiles are imported from Italy and this luxurious room looks over the living roof of the kitchen extension below.
Private at the top of the house, the restful 3rd/4th bedroom stretches across the property from east to west. A picture window frames a sea of gardens and open vista rising up the hill and with no traffic passing immediately behind its unusually quiet. There is ample space in which to spread your wings, touch open storage to fill, painted panelling for character– and there’s also access to large under eave storage.

Agent Says:
“This is the place to be, a step away from the Level’s playground, paddling pool, skate park and café, and the Level also hosts fairgrounds and arts events all year round. You can explore the amazing shopping of Lewes and London Roads and exotic open market. With the famous North Laine and South Lanes within easy walking distance/cab ride, art venues, restaurants, theatres and beaches with bars are all there to enjoy. There is almost 24/7 access to the station serving London and Gatwick, and local buses will take you along the coast, to the National Park and to the universities at Moulsecoomb and Falmer.”

Owner’s Secret:
“We’ve been incredibly fortunate to have lived in such a great location, with permit parking with no list, so close to everything Brighton has to offer. Within the multi-million pound Valley Gardens regeneration zone, the area has transformed into a vibrant green corridor-perfect for scenic (and level!) walks or bike rides to the Lanes, city centre, or seafront.

We have enjoyed living in this spacious house which was freshly refurbished to a very high standard when we bought it. Always light, inviting and warm to return to, the rooms are all good sizes to spread into. We shall miss our big, bright kitchen dining room which works well for family time - and it’s ideal for entertaining with a relaxed flow to the patio, where we spend most of our time during summer. We have also loved the fact that maintenance is very low!

We’ve experienced a real sense of community here, with lovely neighbours, and a genuinely friendly local atmosphere with an annual street ‘Come Dine with Me’ party and an excellent mix of local cafés, pubs, and restaurants. The Royal Pavilion, Brighton Dome, and Corn Exchange are just a 6-min cab ride or a 20-25 min walk through the historic Lanes. We’re also perfectly positioned between the Level, Saunder’s Park and Preston Park-green spaces with regular events, dog walkers, families, and a vibrant local spirit. Top-rated schools, including Brighton College, are conveniently close. Whether you're heading to the beach, the pier, Soho House, or out into the open countryside, everything feels within easy reach.”
