With its brilliant white frontage and multi-story bay windows, Havelock Road was built at the turn of the 20th century. Reassuringly elegant, all rooms are generously proportioned with high ceilings and large windows for optimal natural light while original features of architraves, decorative ceiling cornices and ceiling roses exude this home’s historic past.

A warm muted colour palette compliments the refined welcoming décor of this considerable family home. Arranged over three floors, the property briefly consists of a sizable double reception room, an immaculately presented kitchen/dining room and entrance hallway. Upstairs, there are three double bedrooms and two utterly chic shower rooms.

Havelock Road boasts an appealing approach; the impressive monochromatic façade creates an instant wow factor that is equally matched by the interior of this townhouse.

Set on a quiet road in Brighton’s highly sought-after Preston Park area, a timeless checkerboard tiled path sits in front of this striking period home. Sympathetically decorated throughout, this is a beautiful example of contemporary living in a period property.

On entering, an excellently preserved hallway with exquisite wood flooring, detailed cornicing and authentic corbels provides access to all ground floor rooms as well as offering a handy spot to store outdoor shoes and coats.

To the front is a wonderfully presented double reception room, decorated in sophisticated earth tones with a vast range of period characteristics united in pristine white; a distinctive large bay window pours light into the room accentuating the space with a gorgeous monochromatic log burning fireplace and surround posing as a focal point.

At the rear of the property is the kitchen and breakfasting room which offers ample space for dining. A sleek shaker style kitchen in grey uniquely wraps around the room topped by white work surfaces with brushed chrome accents to create a richly dramatic space with a contemporary finish. The kitchen has the benefit of a range of integrated appliances including an enviable wine cooler, a deep bowl stainless steel sink, ample countertop and cupboard space. Reaping the very most from the afternoon sun, the kitchen has several large skylights and leads on to a delightful garden; the ideal spot for al fresco dining in the summer months. Handy under stair storage cupboards are accessible from the hallway.

The staircase runs up from the entrance hall and gives access to all first-floor rooms from the landing. There are two double bedrooms on the first floor with the main bedroom to the front benefiting from a large bay window, decorative cornicing and high ceilings. A second double bedroom is positioned adjacent overlooking the garden. Housed on the half landing, there are two shower rooms each feature beautiful designs of voguish proportions. The loft has been seamlessly converted into an additional double bedroom, well-lit by several Velux windows and enjoying ample cupboard space.

Bi-fold doors lead out from the kitchen to a west facing patio garden, thoughtfully landscaped to accommodate a variety of uses. A relaxed seating area is arranged by the kitchen doors perfect for reaping the most of the summer weather, whist plenty of room remains for an outdoor dining area. A beautiful choice of mature plants, trees and shrubbery add colour and an added sense of seclusion to this enviable garden.

Havelock Road is within the incredibly popular Golden Triangle, in demand from locals as well as those currently living outside of the area. The green spaces of Blakers Park to the top and Preston Park to the bottom gives plenty of options for family entertaining and dog walking.

Fiveways offers local independent shops and cafes and access in and out of Brighton is easy via London Road/Preston Park stations and the A23/A27. Preston Park mainline railway station, with its links to London and Gatwick airport, Brighton city centre and the seafront are also easily accessible.

Local schools are outstanding with some of the best Secondary schools in the area including Dorothy Stringer and Varndean with Independent Brighton College, Windlesham and Brighton and Hove High School nearby.

The property has been allocated council tax band D, which is currently charged at £2,118.31 for 2022/23 and is situated in parking zone J.
