Hanover is a popular district of Brighton, characterised by its terraces of colourfully painted houses. Being in a central location and within walking distance of Brighton Station, it is popular with commuters who value its proximity to the city centre and transport links. Often considered one of Brighton’s bohemian strongholds, it has an active artistic community and a lively atmosphere, with more than its fair share of excellent pubs offering good company, great food and live music. Families are attracted by good local schools and green spaces: Queen’s Park has a playground, a café and a wildlife pond, while The Level has a playground and a skate park.

This characterful two/three-bedroom Hanover terraced house is arranged over three storeys and has generous reception spaces, including a large kitchen/dining/living room on the lower ground floor that opens onto the pretty garden, and a further living room on the ground floor, which could alternatively be used as a third bedroom.

The front door opens into an attractive entrance hallway with stripped wooden floors. The staircase directly ahead also has stripped and polished treads and risers, along with the original handrail. To the right is a versatile room that has been used as a living room by the current owners but could also serve as a third bedroom. This is a bright and spacious room with a window onto Coleman Street and built-in shelving flanking the chimney breast. The bathroom is also on the ground floor and is a good size, with a white suite and a frosted sash window that lets in plenty of natural light.

On the lower ground floor, the heart of the home is a well-proportioned kitchen, dining and living area that runs the length of the house. At the front, there’s space for a sofa and chairs arranged around the fireplace, while the rear section accommodates a dining table beside the fitted kitchen. Colourful painted units are topped with wooden worktops, and a sink sits beneath the window with a pleasant view of the garden. There’s room for a freestanding cooker, washing machine and fridge freezer, and the Viessmann combination boiler is also located here. Stripped and painted floorboards run throughout, and a glazed door leads out to the walled garden, which is planted with mature shrubs in raised beds.

Upstairs, there are two bedrooms on the top floor. The principal bedroom stretches across the full width of the house, while the second overlooks the garden. Both rooms continue the stripped floorboards seen throughout the house, adding character and continuity to the upper level.

What the owner says:
“The garden is a real sun trap and attracts lots of birds, who love splashing around in the bird bath. The surrounding walls offer plenty of privacy, making it a peaceful spot to relax. It’s also very conveniently located—just a short walk to the Lanes, the train station, or the beach. The street itself is very friendly, with lovely, welcoming neighbours who are always happy to help.
