Features and description
- Freehold
Two minutes from the al fresco lifestyle and shopping of the North Laine but tucked away from the tourist trail, this three bedroom retreat has a ground floor patio and west facing roof terrace, and is good to go as a fabulous home or a high end rental. A spacious beauty with 1023 square feet (95.0m2) of light filled rooms, no expense has been spared to create the perfect refuge where the opened ground floor has classic oak floors for a sociable in/out flow to a petite patio and a stylish, fully fitted kitchen. Up on the first floor you’ll find access to the roof terrace and inside, the meticulous attention to detail continues in the principal bedroom and glamorous bathroom next door. Peaceful and private on the top floor two more double bedrooms are both comfortable doubles which are ready for your move. This historic one-way street is far quieter than its central setting may suggest, and just a 10 minute stroll from the sea – past bars and restaurants- it will attract professionals, families and investors as it is the natural place for friends to meet to explore the city.

In a quiet one-way street of historic homes in the popular North Laine Conservation Area, this beautiful property radiates period charm, this sensitive design approach continues through all three storeys.
The front door opens to an inviting living room with high ceilings, oak underfoot and a window seat which doubles as storage beneath the broad east bay. There is a sophisticated 23’6 x 13’10 (7.16m x 4.2m) to enjoy, and plenty of fitted shelving and a low level cabinet combine with two large under stair cupboards to ensure the room remains clutter free. Light and airy in the summer, as you know, the house is double glazed in keeping with the age of the building, so in winter this space transforms into a cosy haven, where guests can dine with you in warm seclusion or relax by a fabulous open fire – something hard to find in period terraces.
Ideal for those who like to entertain, the stylish kitchen is open to the living room for an easy flow but has its own space so it is safely away from movement and doesn’t dominate the whole of the living area either. Lined with windows to bring in the sunlight by day with a choice of lighting levels for the evening, there are plenty of units and hardy, solid wood surfaces. Being of great quality it is a timeless beauty which won’t date and it is good to go with a sleek electric hob and oven beneath a hood, and a fridge, freezer and dishwasher are all integrated for you. Plumbing is in place for a washer drier – and the great news is that the AEG in situ could stay, subject to circumstance. Outside, the petite patio offers space for built in seating and a secure place for bikes.
At the top of the stairs, the luxury bathroom is larger than you expect with space for both a glamorous claw footed bath with a shower attachment and separate walk in shower. There is a subtle Victorian influence to the shower heads and designer handbasin, but there is nothing old fashioned about these high spec fittings or warming rail for towels! Next door, the principal bedroom is a serene sanctuary to return to which stretches the full width of the building with 13’10 x 13’3 (4.2m x 4.03m) to enjoy, and with calm decoration, feature fireplace and custom made plantation shutters which will stay, you won’t want to change a thing.
Slightly unconventional, but not unusual in these Victorian homes, the roof terrace is on the first floor to catch some sun and is reached via the bathroom. A secret haven open to the south with space for a table and chairs, planning has been granted to improve the property to the north side – and there are also ongoing discussions concerning the brick property at the back.
Returning inside, on the second floor, there is access to the boarded attic – and it is worth noting that some neighbours have Velux in their rooflines. There is a peaceful bedroom at the back which is a comfortable double used as a nursery and by it, the third bedroom is a restful refuge, currently the principal with two fitted wardrobes, soothing colour scheme and thick grey carpet ready for your move.
Agent says:
“In one of the most sought after areas of the city with almost 24/7 access to the airport and London this beautiful period home has real charm and character.”
Owner’s secret:
“There is a surprising amount of space here and we have enjoyed many happy evenings entertaining friends and family. The street is quiet and friendly and it still surprises us when we turn the corner and are suddenly in the heart of the North Laine! Brighton really is the jewel of the south coast with something for everyone no matter what you’re into and we have a relaxing, al fresco lifestyle just around the corner. There are hidden gems to discover from coastal views to beautiful cityscapes, and the diverse landscapes of the surrounding National Park are amazing – and all are easily accessed from this location by bus, train or cycle, so you won’t need a car.”
What’s around you:
Shops: North Laine 2 minute walk
Train Station: Brighton Station 3 to walk
Seafront or Park: The Level and the beach both about a 10 minute walk
Closest schools:
Primary: St Paul’s C of E

Local bus routes deliver you to every part of the city, there’s a choice of popular schools and although so central, it is close to green spaces which host arts events during festivals. For those who love the outdoors, the South Downs National Park as well as the international amenities of the Marina are easy to reach by bus or cab. For those who need a car, its well connected for the A23/A27.
