4 bed terraced house for sale

Upper North Street, Brighton, East Sussex BN1

Elegant Four-Bedroom Victorian Terraced Home

Located within the highly desirable Montpelier & Clifton Hill Conservation Area in the heart of Brighton, this elegant four-bedroom Victorian terraced home, believed to date from around 1830–1850, presents a rare opportunity to own a beautifully preserved period property.

Spanning three floors and offering just under 1,500 sq ft of well-planned accommodation, the house successfully blends timeless character with modern comforts.
The ground floor opens into a generous entrance hall, leading to a bright, south-facing living room where full-height sash windows and an attractive feature fireplace create a welcoming space filled with natural light. Beyond is the dining area, which enjoys direct access to the lower patio, making it ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The contemporary Shaker-style kitchen provides excellent storage and worktop space, while a separate utility room to the rear offers additional practicality and also opens onto the patio.

A striking wrought iron staircase rises to the first floor, where two original bedrooms have been thoughtfully combined to create a spacious principal suite. Alongside the bedroom is a versatile dressing area that could equally serve as a reading nook, Pilates space, or home office. The room also benefits from a south-facing Juliet balcony, extensive floor-to-ceiling fitted storage, and an inset electric fireplace.
The family bathroom is fitted with a classic roll-top bath, separate shower, and W.C., with doors opening onto a terrace overlooking the rear garden. A further separate cloakroom with W.C. And wash basin provides added convenience for family life and visiting guests.

The second floor offers two further generously proportioned double bedrooms, both well presented, with one enjoying attractive rooftop views stretching towards the sea.
Outside, the rear garden is arranged over two levels. The lower paved terrace includes two detached timber storage sheds, while steps lead to the upper garden, where built-in seating, raised planting beds, and an abundance of mature trees and shrubs create a private and colourful outdoor retreat throughout the seasons. To the front, a walled patio garden enjoys a sunny southerly aspect.
The property retains many of its original architectural details, including high ceilings and decorative cornicing, while tasteful modern improvements have been made throughout. Most windows have the added benefit of secondary glazing, and the property is offered for sale with no onward chain.

Perfectly positioned for city living, the house is within easy walking distance of Brighton city centre, Brighton mainline railway station, the beach and seafront, including the i360. The Brighton Dome, the Royal Pavilion and Museum, and the West Pier are all close by, while Churchill Square and the Clock Tower provide convenient access to numerous bus routes serving the South Downs National Park and surrounding towns. Brighton's extensive seafront cycle network also offers easy routes east to Brighton Marina and west along the coast.

The property is well placed for a range of respected schools, including Brighton, Hove & Sussex Sixth Form College and Windlesham School & Nursery. Brighton mainline station is approximately half a mile away, offering frequent direct services to London and Gatwick Airport.
