2 bed detached house for sale

Lucerne Road, Brighton BN1

Description

A striking, architect-designed detached home, discreetly positioned within the sought-after Preston Park Conservation area. Recently completed to an exceptional standard, this home offers beautifully considered living space, outstanding energy efficiency and far-reaching views across the city towards the sea.

Available through knight & knoxley with no onward chain, the house has been meticulously converted and redesigned, with every detail carefully thought through. The result is a truly individual home that feels both contemporary and quietly luxurious.

Upstairs, the first floor is a standout space. A generous open-plan living room and kitchen sit beneath exposed painted beams and benefit from excellent natural light throughout the day. The bespoke Baines & Fricker kitchen features quartz work surfaces, integrated appliances and a large island that anchors the space, making it ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. Sliding doors open onto a south-facing balcony, where elevated views stretch across Brighton and out towards the coastline.

A separate cloakroom on this level adds everyday practicality, while the property's sustainability credentials are equally impressive, with underfloor heating throughout the ground floor, air conditioning, and 15 solar panels contributing to strong energy efficiency.

A sleek glass Aritco Homelift connects the two floors, offering a practical and discreet solution for accessibility.

Two double bedrooms can be found on the ground floor alongside a sleek family Parker Bathrooms shower room, complete with sleek black hardware and a Roca toilet.

Also on this level is a versatile studio/garage space that could equally suit home working, creative use or secure parking for a small vehicle. Please note that UK Power Network have a right of entry via the garage to access equipment to the rear of the property - ask the agent for further details.

To the front of the house is a private, gated courtyard garden - a sheltered and sunny space for outdoor seating - completing a home that would suit a wide range of buyers.

Lucerne Road sits within the highly sought-after Preston Park Conservation Area, often referred to as part of Brighton's Golden Triangle. The area is prized for its strong community feel, excellent schools, and close proximity to both green space and the city. Preston Park is just moments away and offers expansive lawns, gardens, cafés, tennis courts, playgrounds, and a velodrome. Florence Road Market runs weekly, with independent cafés, bakeries, and local shops nearby on Preston Drove and at Preston Circus. The Duke of York's Picturehouse, one of the city's most celebrated cinemas, is within easy walking distance, along with a number of well-regarded pubs and restaurants, including The Preston Park Tavern, Park View, Signalman, Open House, and Roundhill Tavern. Families are drawn to the area for its excellent schooling, including Downs Infant and Junior Schools, Stanford Infants and Juniors, Balfour Primary, and the highly regarded Dorothy Stringer and Varndean secondary schools, with Varndean Sixth Form College also close at hand. Brighton city centre and the seafront are easily reached on foot or by bike, while Preston Park, London Road, and Brighton mainline stations all offer regular services to London. Road access via the A23 and A27 is straightforward, making this a particularly well-connected and practical location. The street itself is known for its friendly and well-established community, with long-standing neighbours and an active local WhatsApp group that reflects the sociable, supportive nature of the area. Residents regularly share practical help, local recommendations, and community updates, contributing to the strong sense of neighbourhood that Preston Park is so well known for.
