Embrace the Brighton lifestyle in this party perfect three bedroom house with sunny patio garden to enjoy and a very rare, secure allocated parking space a few doors down. With immaculate, sunlit rooms spread over a generous 98.2m2 (1057.5 sq ft), this beautifully refurbished Victorian house is good to go as an ideal home or high end rental just 2 minutes’ walk from the fashionable al fresco lifestyle of Kemptown Village, 6 from Brighton College, and the County Hospital is at the top of the street. The wow factor kicks in as soon as you step into to a sophisticated living room which opens to the private patio and continues all the way through the streamlined fitted kitchen and first floor luxury bathroom to the three stylish bedrooms – one of which could be a fabulous home office. A chic, sought after location 2 blocks from the sea, the Village has plenty of amenities including a weekly farmer’s market, the area is well served for green spaces which hold events during our legendary festivals, and a 15-20 minute stroll along the seafront, will take you to the picturesque cultural heart of our famous coastal resort.

Kemptown Village has an easy going, unpretentious vibe and it is bordered by the sea where a seasonal lift will take you to beach bars and volleyball courts – and soon the heated Lido. Between the Pier and Marina you are hidden away from the main tourist trail and this terrace is prime, not only because of its proximity to the hospital but also as it is close to the public garden of St George’s Church which is a favourite for lunch in the sun and also hosts refined events during our arts festivals. Outside, this beautiful property radiates period charm, tucked back from the road behind a front garden – and inside has roared into the 21st century with a skilled refurbishment which has ensured that glorious Victorian proportions remain unspoilt.

Inside, an inviting hall has crisp lines, oak underfoot and spotlights to keep the feel current and a chic cloakroom is hidden away. Ahead, the living room is a stunner with French doors to bring the outside in, a classic limestone fireplace which houses a sleek, flame effect gas fire and ambient lighting. Spanning the whole of the back of the building, there is 5.04m x 3.77m (16’6 x 12’4) in which to unwind or to enjoy with friends.

Outside, the garden is level with the house – a feature hard to find in a city built on hills – and designed for relaxing, it is an oasis of calm to make your own. Child and pet secure, it is paved and lit, ideal for al fresco summers in the Sussex sunshine and the vendor is willing to discuss the gazebo in the corner which provides some shade.

Returning inside, at the front of the house the streamlined kitchen is beautifully planned with three levels of lighting to welcome company and space for a table by the front bay. A classic black and white, everything flows from the central, five ring gas hob and electric oven, both beneath a hood, plumbing is in place for a dishwasher and washing machine, and there is designated space for a tall fridge freezer.

Upstairs, the luxury bathroom is large enough for both a bath with a shower wand and separate walk in shower, and the designer finish includes a hand basin resting on a fashionable, custom made cabinet. Next door, guests will love the first of the double bedrooms which is quiet and comfortable with garden views, and with fresh, calm décor, it is ready to move into. Past a deep airing cupboard, at the front the second bedroom is light and airy with 2.82m x 1.99m (9’3 x 6’6) of floorspace to play with, so it could fit a small double bed or be a sweet nursey, or a private home office. Also at the front with a bay looking up a leafy street, so this room is not directly overlooked, the principal bedroom has space and grace with restful proportions and plenty of room for furniture even with a double bed in situ, and beautifully presented, you will not need to change a thing.

Agent says:
“Ideal if you are a health professional, (although it is also within walking distance of other major employers like Brighton College, Amex and the station) or as a holiday destination, this house is the perfect backdrop for those who want to enjoy a prime location with its own character and amenities, but where you can also walk into the heart of our vibrant and inclusive coastal city.”

Owner’s secret:
“The Village is a great location with the beach, downland walks and tennis courts of Queen’s Park on the doorstep and it has friendly cafes, bars and restaurants. The shops open early and shut late if you commute or work at the hospitals and the neighbours are considerate – there’s an inclusive mix of single people, couples and families. With a secure parking space once home from work (and getting back here from the A23/A27 is very easy) you don’t have to be tied to a car as you can walk, bus or cab anywhere. As we are relocating, we are happy to negotiate certain items of furniture and white goods etc if you would like any of them.”
