Queens Park Terrace, Brighton

Guide price £950,000 - £1,000,000. A beautifully presented Victorian family home in the sought-after Queen’s Park area. Featuring a bespoke designer kitchen, landscaped garden, elegant living spaces, and flexible layout with potential for 4 bedrooms. Close to amenities and the seafront.

The Property - Set on a wide, tree-lined street in the peaceful and sought-after Queen’s Park neighbourhood, this beautifully presented terraced home offers a calm and stylish retreat, just a short walk from Queen’s Park, Kemp Town’s amenities, and Brighton’s iconic seafront. Currently configured as a three-bedroom home with a luxurious bathroom and walk-in wardrobe room, there’s flexibility to reconfigure into four bedrooms if required.

A landscaped front garden leads up a few steps to a striking blue front door with stunning stained glass. Inside, solid oak flooring flows throughout complementing the home’s welcoming character and a cast iron radiator adds warmth and style. The through living and dining room is bright and elegant with a large bay window, with colonial white wooden shutters, to the front and French doors opening to the rear garden. Two black Victorian working fireplaces add a timeless charm, while built-in cabinetry provides practical storage.

At the rear is the heart of the home: a bespoke, handmade kitchen by Wood Works. With beautiful walnut veneer curved cabinetry with bold orange interiors, Corian worktops, and integrated premium appliances, including a utility cupboard and double ovens, it’s both functional and a design statement. Designer lighting and a breakfast island add the finishing touches and make it a space for all to enjoy - especially budding chefs.

The kitchen overlooks a thoughtfully landscaped garden, arranged over three levels with a sunny patio and BBQ area, an immaculate lawn, and a bespoke seating area beneath a pergola with a mature grapevine. There’s also an apple tree, olive tree, rose bushes, wisteria, and all-day sun that moves around the garden, offering a perfect spot at any hour. Delightfully private, the garden features several outdoor power points and lit up at night it provides a peaceful oasis in which to decompress after a long day.

Finishing off the ground floor is a practical WC, with designer wallpaper, and under stairs storage.

Upstairs, you're welcomed first by a spacious and beautifully finished bathroom. A freestanding slipper bath sits beneath the window - perfect for a relaxing soak while taking in the evening light. There’s also a large walk-in rainfall shower, a bespoke vanity unit with a marble top, and a charming exposed brick feature wall with another original fireplace. Italian wood-effect tiled flooring and built-in spotlights finish the space off. This luxurious bathroom was reconfigured by the current owners, previously occupying the adjacent room which is now a generous walk-in wardrobe room with plumbing still in place, should you wish to reinstate the bathroom and gain an additional bedroom.

Also on this level are two generously-sized bedrooms. The principal bedroom at the front is a tranquil retreat, with a peaceful outlook over the leafy street from the new double glazed sash windows. Tantalising glimpses of the sea can be viewed from the bed before the trees flourish in summer and from here occasional sunset views can be enjoyed. A Victorian fireplace with an emerald green hearth, ceiling rose, and Juliet balcony all add to the period charm and bespoke velvet curtains by McQueen Bespoke finish the look and can be negotiated with the sale. The second bedroom on this floor has beautiful garden views and built-in storage.

The final bedroom is located on the top floor. Although tucked into the eaves it provides a bright and spacious retreat that could equally serve as the principal bedroom, guest suite, or private office space. Additionally, with the correct planning permissions, an en-suite bathroom could be added here. Also on the top floor is a fully insulated and boarded ‘walk-in’ loft offering ample storage.

Parking is particularly convenient, with space typically available directly outside the house. The property falls within Zone C, which extends all the way to the seafront - perfect for those days when you’d rather drive than walk.
