Stanmer Villas, Brighton

Guide Price £625,000 - £675,000. This four-bedroom terraced house is spread over three floors and provides comfortable living for a family. An open-plan kitchen/dining room invites meal times spent together and its west-facing garden is perfect for playtime. A large basement offers the potential for growth.

The Property - As you approach this house you are greeted by a pretty facade and an arched brick wall welcomes you through to a covered outside space (that is currently being used as a wood store). Through the front door is a space for coats and shoes and a hallway that leads through to the ground-floor rooms.

On the ground floor is an open-plan kitchen/dining room that benefits from a large bay window that bathes the room in sunlight. Modern white kitchen cupboards and a wooden worktop add to the airy feel of this space. Next door is the living room which has a cosy log burner and patio doors that lead out to a raised decking and into the grass garden beyond. Natural wooden floors add style and practicality to the ground floor.

On the first floor are three carpeted bedrooms and a family bathroom with a double rainfall shower and blue mosaic tiles. The top floor is dedicated to the principal bedroom and another bathroom. Bathed in light from large Velux windows, this floor offers an oasis away from the rest of the house - perfect for busy parents. In the bedroom, full-height windows and a Juliet balcony overlook the garden and in the bathroom, a tub offers a space to relax.

Downstairs, a basement spans the square footage of the house. It currently has a utility room with a door that leads out into the garden and three additional areas. With planning permission there’s scope to transform this space into further living accommodation.

This property is Freehold and the council tax band is C.
