A rare and distinguished opportunity in one of Brighton’s most coveted residential enclaves.
Set within the prestigious Surrenden district and moments from the rolling greenery of Withdean Park, this beautifully extended and deceptively spacious detached residence presents five double bedrooms, five bathrooms and exceptional family living across a generous plot.

Approached via a quiet lane, the property sits proudly behind an impressive block-paved driveway (laid with Marshall drive blockwork), offering parking for several vehicles and framed by mature trees and an elevated lawn. To the rear, a superb South-facing garden unfolds — exquisitely landscaped with tropical planting to create a serene, secluded oasis centred around a heated swimming pool. It is a truly idyllic setting for relaxation and entertaining.
Inside, the sense of scale and quality is immediately apparent.

A wide reception hall, finished with oversized porcelain tiles, enjoys a lovely outlook across the front garden — a space that has hosted many large family gatherings. At the heart of the home lies a stunning Schmidt kitchen, beautifully appointed with premium Kuppersbusch appliances and a sculptural curved breakfast bar. This central hub seamlessly connects the front and rear living spaces and provides internal access to the integral double garage, which offers excellent utility and storage capacity.
To the rear, the expansive L-shaped family room is bathed in natural light, with wrap-around patio windows opening to reveal elevated views across the garden and beyond. A charming Juliette balcony enhances the sense of openness and connection to the outdoors.

The first floor offers a generous landing with extensive storage and a beautifully designed family bathroom featuring a contemporary freestanding bath and large walk-in shower. Four well-proportioned bedrooms occupy this level: Two overlooking the front — one with an en-suite shower room — and two opening onto a substantial South-facing balcony that captures day-long sunshine. The principal bedroom enjoys a luxurious en-suite bathroom and a wonderful sense of privacy.

The lower ground floor provides a highly versatile, self-contained suite complete with kitchenette, shower room and storage, with direct access to the rear garden. Perfect as guest accommodation, an au pair suite, multi-generational living, a dedicated home office or even a tranquil yoga studio, this space adds significant flexibility to the home’s already impressive footprint.

Peacefully positioned between two expanses of parkland, the property offers a rare blend of semi-rural tranquillity and urban convenience. Despite its secluded feel, Brighton’s vibrant city centre, excellent schools and transport links are all within easy reach — creating the perfect balance for modern family life.

This lovely family home is situated in this highly sought after residential area between Surrenden and Ditchling Road. There is an excellent range of local shopping nearby at Fiveways which includes a Post office, Butcher, Baker, Greengrocer, Deli and Co Op. Also within easy reach is Marks & Spencer Food Hall and the Asda supermarket. There are excellent schools for children of all age groups within easy reach, also a local bus service in Friar Road providing access to Brighton City Centre. Preston Park mainlines railway station, with a direct service to London Victoria is just a walk away and Brighton seafront with its fine recreational facilities and bathing beaches being a little over two miles distant.
