Opportunities like this don’t come up often. Set on one of Patcham’s most established and sought-after roads, this 1930s home is part of a handsome collection of character properties and it carries all the hallmarks of that elegant era.

Think large bay windows, generous room sizes, original stained glass, and a wonderfully welcoming feel throughout.

Downstairs, the layout flows nicely. You’ve got a formal dining room at the front which is perfect for hosting, whilst the sitting room, kitchen, and conservatory are all to the rear, making the most of the garden views. The entrance hall is wide and airy, with a beautiful turning staircase and a west-facing window that pours in afternoon light. There’s also a handy downstairs WC and an outer lobby that connects the kitchen to the garden, ideal for muddy boots or pets.

On the first floor you’ll find two spacious double bedrooms, both with built-in storage, plus a fourth bedroom overlooking the garden; perfect as a home office or nursery. The shower room has been smartly updated, and the landing itself feels open and light-filled. Head up again, and the top floor holds a lovely loft conversion bedroom, complete with built-in storage and its own bathroom just next door. Perfect if you have guests staying over.

The south facing garden will be a big feature for many. Wonderfully private thanks to mature planting and full of sunshine, but still with enough shade to stay cool on hotter days. From the upper floors, the views over Withdean are beautiful, you get a real sense of calm here while being just minutes from the city centre. To the front, there’s a driveway leading to the garage, plus unrestricted on-street parking for guests.

Ridgeside Avenue is in the heart of Patcham, nestled just north of the city and a hot spot for families of all ages. On hand are popular primary and secondary schools, local shops and plenty of outdoor space to explore. Drop down onto London Road and you can be at Preston Park station within a few minutes and its one stop to Brighton station, and direct access to London Bridge and Victoria, making it perfect to combine working in London and living by the sea. You can be on the A23 within a few moments form the property, where Gatwick can be reached in within 25 miles, whilst the M25 is 30 miles north. Withdean Stadium provides a range of gym and sports facilities, whilst Withdean Park and Preston Park are great places to explore locally.
