Why you’ll like it:
Forming part of a short red brick terrace on Bristol Gardens, these town homes are attractive on approach with porthole windows and pilastered front doors, echoing their Regency neighbours. They can also be approached from the rear, down a driveway from Church Place where the garages are accessed. Entering on this side, there are stairs to the upper floor living areas, alongside access to the garage and large storage space on the lower ground floor.

Stepping inside from Bristol Gardens, however, you enter the home on the first floor where the kitchen and generous living room reside. Facing south with a wide box bay window looking out over the local landscape, the living space is sunny and airy with open views. There is ample space within the bay for a dining table and chairs allowing for homely furnishings elsewhere. White walls and wood floors offer a fresh blank canvas which will suit all styles of furnishing. Next door, the kitchen is well-equipped with plenty of storage and some integrated appliances, leaving space and plumbing for both a washing machine and dishwasher.

Moving up through the house, the principal bedroom sits on the second floor mirroring the living room below it in shape and size, with views that only improve the further up the house you go. From the box bay window, you can now see across rooftops to the sea, reminding you just how close to the coast you are here. The decoration is immaculate in white and cream and there space allows for a king size bed and several pieces of freestanding furniture without compromising on space.

Across the landing, the bathroom is another stylish space lined in dark ply with around the contemporary bath suite which has an electric shower over it for constant, powerful hot water when needed. A separate WC sits next door – an essential in any shared space.

There are two further double bedrooms on the top floor where it is ultimately peaceful. The sea and skyscapes to the south are glorious, while to the front of the building, your line of sight takes you across the homes of East Brighton to the green rolling hills of the South Downs where Brighton Racecourse meets the coast.
