Lancaster Road, Brighton, BN1

The property is a fabulous Victorian townhouse in a prime setting, just over half a mile from Brighton train station on a quiet tree-lined road which offers excellent access in and out of the city via Dyke Road. The attractive home is traditionally appointed with masses of character features, including sash windows, stained-glass details, decorative coving and picture rails, which are beautifully combined with a more modern décor scheme that complements the age and style of the house. The kitchen is a particular highlight, with its sleek cabinetry and generous proportions, with the vast windows providing excellent natural light to the open plan dining space which is ideal for entertaining family and friends. The bright and airy theme continues throughout the house, which has high ceilings and well proportioned rooms ideally suited to family life.

A porch opens onto an original tiled entrance hall, with doors leading to the sitting room at the front of the house and the open plan kitchen and dining room at the rear. There is also a useful utility room and a cloakroom with WC. On the first floor there are two generous double bedrooms and a further single bedroom which could equally make an excellent home office, plus a bathroom and a separate shower room. The second floor has two further bedrooms – both with eaves storage – and a WC.
