Brighton 0.7 milesA charming Victorian bay-fronted maisonette in one of Brighton‘s most sought-after family neighbourhoods, ideally placed between two of the city‘s best-loved green spaces Preston Park and Blaker‘s Park and just moments from the independent caf©s, delis and pubs of Fiveways.
The property has been thoughtfully modernised while retaining the period character you‘d hope for from a home of this era. The principal reception is a beautifully proportioned bay-windowed room finished in a soft sage green, with picture rails, dado panelling, an original period fireplace and handsome fitted shelving in each alcove the kind of room that feels equally at home hosting friends or curling up with a book on a Sunday.
To the rear, a contemporary Shaker kitchen sits at the heart of the home, with quartz worktops, NEFF gas hob and integrated oven, a dishwasher, Siemens fridge/freezer, metro-tiled splashbacks and wood-effect flooring. There‘s dedicated space and plumbing for your own washing machine. A glass-roofed garden room extends the kitchen out to the private rear garden.
The principal bedroom mirrors the reception‘s bay window and offers a full wall of mirrored fitted wardrobes. A second double overlooks the garden, and the smartly finished bathroom has an over-bath shower, chrome heated towel rail and classic Victorian-style chequerboard tiling. On the top floor, a bright loft conversion provides a third double bedroom or home office, with twin Velux skylights and generous eaves storage.
Period details stripped pine doors, turned-spindle banisters, decorative cornicing and sash-style windows run throughout. The sash windows are fully double-glazed, preserving the look of the originals while keeping the home warm and quiet year-round.
Preston Park (with its rose garden, tennis courts, Rotunda caf© and bowling greens) is a short stroll away, as is the village-like Blaker‘s Park with its landmark clocktower, playground and tennis courts. Fiveways is the local hub for weekend coffee, independent shops and well-regarded schools including Balfour Primary, Downs Junior, Varndean and Dorothy Stringer. Preston Park station (direct trains to London Victoria) is under ten minutes on foot, and Brighton‘s seafront, Lanes and mainline station are all within easy reach.
This property will be fully managed by Philip James Letting Agents.
