With real charm in a prime location, this historic house is in one of the most sought after locations in the city surrounded by chic cafés, restaurants, independent shops and seafront attractions, and is within a 15-20 min seafront stroll of the Royal Pavilion and waterfront restaurants of the Marina but tucked away from tourists.

Inside embraces a sociable, contemporary lifestyle. The original ground floor reception rooms have been opened to create an inviting, elegant space to enjoy with friends and family with a broad bay window at one end and sea views at the other, and skilfully organised with versatile floorspace, classic stripped floorboards underfoot and a beautiful period fireplace, central bi-folds convert the space to two separate rooms to create a 3rd bedroom. Past a visitor w.c. and discreet utility area, a door leads to a stylish south facing terrace with a shimmer of sea, ideal for soaking up the seaside location and al fresco entertaining. Returning inside, there’s an easy flow to the lower floor, which also has its own entrance from the street.

Downstairs, at the front of the house, a large living room is a classic beauty with custom built cabinets on each side of a stately fireplace. Next door, the private breakfast room has plenty of space for a big family table and ample storage includes under stair cupboards. At the end of the hallway, a contemporary kitchen opens to a stylish patio and has custom coloured units topped by user friendly wood. Good to go, integrated appliances include a gas hob and electric oven beneath a hood. Outside offers great space for parties but also for every day with a secluded sheltered area where you can work on a computer in the heat of high summer, and an open south facing sun trap which is paved for ease of maintenance so you’ll have more time to enjoy it.

Returning inside, at the top of the stairs the fabulous bathroom is a luxury refuge where the high end finish includes a dual head shower over the bath, a vanity unit beneath the hand basin and a glamorous, lit mirror above. On the first floor at the back of house, a light, airy double bedroom with surprisingly open views to the sea is not directly overlooked. Simple but stylish there are alcoves for wardrobes. At the front, the second bedroom is a restful sanctuary ready for your move which spans the full width of the building with a deep, wide bay to bathe the room with light and fitted wardrobes to fill.

Vendor’s Comments:

“Quiet but convenient the location couldn’t be better within a short walk of the sea, local shops, the Lanes and Marina, and as buses to take you along the coast or to the National Park you don’t really need a car here. Brighton Station is about 15 mins by bus or 7-10 by cab. Inside the rooms are light and spacious with adaptable use – we have used our home as a 3 or 4 bed house- and it has a social flow. The walled patio is a private retreat after a busy day in the city or a hot one on the beach, whilst the upper terrace is designed to bask in uninterrupted sunshine and enjoy the sea view! The Village is a great place to live with sociable parks nearby (you can walk straight onto the Downs from East Brighton Park) and there’s a supportive local community, good local schools and major employers on the doorstep.”
