SUPERBLY POSITIONED IN THE HIGHLY COVETED PEMBROKE AND PRINCES CONSERVATION AREA, MERE MINUTES FROM HOVE SEAFRONT; AN EXCEPTIONALLY-SIZED DETACHED EDWARDIAN VILLA ARRANGED OVER FOUR FLOORS AND BENEFITING FROM SIX DOUBLE BEDROOMS, FIVE BATHROOMS, A SOUTH FACING GARDEN, A LARGE PRIVATE DRIVEWAY AND A DOUBLE GARAGE.

Built between 1895 and 1900, Pembroke Crescent represents one of the only large red brick developments in Brighton & Hove. Nestled between New Church Road and Sackville Road, this winding crescent is exceptionally peaceful given its centrality and well-endowed with a variety of poplar, elm, sycamore and chestnut trees. Set back from the road behind a well-maintained flagstone driveway, manicured hedging and utterly charming checkerboard tiled pathway, this substantial home measures just over 3,000sqft/278sqm. All rooms enjoy excellent room proportions and are very well-lit, with large sash windows throughout.

The property presents with a generous family room, a reception room, dining room and statement kitchen. There are six double bedrooms, a utility room, ground floor cloakroom and five bathrooms. A carefully-tended sunny south facing garden with a flagstone terrace, mature lawn and thriving planters are situated to the rear. A large double garage and private driveway completes this inviting home.

Ground Floor
On entering, you are immediately welchomed into this comfortable family home by a large porch, perfect for storing outdoor shoes and coats, which in turn leads onto a generous hallway. The space is remarkably bright, almost achieving a triple aspect by clever employment of internal glass doors.

The living areas of this delightful home are currently set out across the ground and lower ground floors. A spacious family room encompasses almost the entire lower ground. The room is currently occupied as an entertainment room, although the versatility of the room would accommodate endless other uses from home gyms, a home cinema to playrooms or home studio. A handy utility room is placed discretely adjacent.

The remaining living areas are housed on the ground floor. The front reception room is a very good-size, a fireplace is centrally situated and a large square-fronted bay window draws in the light. A well-portioned dining room is set across the hallway dining room. Naturally followed by the contemporary kitchen at the rear; decorated in classic monochrome, a slew of shaker style wall and floor mounted cupboards wrap around one half of the room providing ample storage and cooking space. An peninsula unit distinguishes the cooking space from a secondary dining and relaxing area. A large bay window, roof light and glass door overlook the south facing garden, filling the room with sun all day. A handy ground floor W/C is accessible from the entrance hallway.

Upstairs

Stairs run up from the entrance hallway to the first and second floors, from here there is access to all bedrooms and bathrooms. The first floor houses three very good-sized double rooms and an amply-sized family bathroom with a bath and a walk-in shower. The main suite boasts fitted cupboard space, and a contemporary en-suite bathroom, with free standing bathtub, a large bay window overlooks the stunning gardens below. The remaining bedrooms are located on the second floor. Again, each room is a very good-sized double room and each is fitted with a private en-suite shower room. The second floor also accommodates a good amount of additional storage space.

Outside
Stepping out from the kitchen onto an immaculately presented stone terrace, a well-kept lawn and diverse range of plants and foliage embellish this attractive south facing garden. A combination of pristine white stucco, red brick and fencing adds a feeling of seclusion. Handy side access is available at the front and side offering a convenient solution for transporting in bicycles and other outdoor paraphernalia as well as giving direct access to the double garage. The garage has an electric up and over door, power and ample space for two cars & storage units around the perimitter.
