Freshfield Road is a road of predominantly Victorian terraces that runs north from Edward Street, passing close by Queen’s Park. Standing outside the property you are high on the hill and can see all the way south, down Freshfield Road, to the sea. Queen’s Park is a really beautiful public park with a café, a large duck pond and a children’s play area. St Luke’s and Queen’s Park schools are close by for primary age children and the house is in the catchment area for Dorothy Stringer and Varndean secondary schools.

This substantial three/four bedroom family home is an attractive, red-brick, Victorian property arranged over three floors. The house is decorated mostly in white, which provides the backdrop for the current owners’ wonderful and eclectic, colourful furnishings and art. As you enter on the ground floor, the living/dining room is on your right. This is an elegant and spacious room which has been created by taking down the original dividing wall. At the front of the room, is a beautiful square bay window with five sashes and a decorative fireplace with a cast-iron insert and ceramic tiles. There is built-in cabinetry in the alcoves and the floorboards have been stripped. At the rear, there is a single sash overlooking the garden. There is plenty of space at this end of the room for a large table. The radiators have bespoke decorative art panels attached, made from tempered glass. At the back of the house, the kitchen/breakfast room is over six metres in length. There is a Bosch gas hob and a Bosch double oven with grill. The white ceramic sink is set in a solid wood counter, over teal, gloss units and the splashback is in contrasting blue and green scalloped tiles. The floors throughout the kitchen and breakfast room area, are in engineered oak. There is space for a dishwasher and space for a washing machine. A door from the kitchen leads to the garden which has a large decked area and sea views.

Upstairs on the first floor there are three bedrooms. The rear bedroom has views over the garden and a built-in wardrobe. At the front there is a beautiful bedroom which runs across the full width of the house with a square bay window, and a further single sash window which looks onto a decorative balcony. There are also stripped floorboards and a fireplace surround. The middle bedroom is being used as a home office and has stairs rising to the loft room, which is a good size room, currently being used as a fourth bedroom. The house has double-glazed windows throughout and a Worcester Bosch combi-boiler.


What the owner says:

“We have loved living in Freshfield Road for the past 9 years. Having moved here from London we really feel that we fell on our feet when we found this place! The house itself is spacious and full of light. The garden gets plenty of sunshine and we’ve enjoyed many bbq’s with friends out there. We’ve found the location to be perfect: a ten-minute walk down to the beach in one direction; in the other direction, you can get to central Brighton, including the train station in 15-20 mins. Two bus stops are located very close to our house with buses to central Brighton, the train station and the Marina. On top of this, both of our kids attended the wonderful St. Luke’s primary school, which is just around the corner. We will certainly miss this place!”
