Why You’ll Like It:
By leafy Dyke Road Park with easy access to the sea or National Park as well as into or out of the city, Port Hall is one of the most desirable areas of our vibrant city with tranquil, tree lined terraces and properties, particularly within this hidden mews, do not appear on the market often. There’s pedestrian access to Stanford Junior School from nearby Coventry Street, Stanford Infant and Windlesham Prep are also a stroll and local amenities include a convenience store, café and bistro pub – out of hearing. This pretty no through mews with a mix of architectural styles has immediate appeal, and this immaculate semi-detached bungalow has allocated parking and a secure store.

Inside, a porch has space for coats and bags and ahead great design delivers a fabulous, sun-lit living dining room where light streams through a large window at the front, a skylight above the high-spec kitchen area and broad French doors which sweep open to the sunny courtyard garden where friends can enjoy al fresco summers without being overlooked. Inside has a welcoming 5.62 x 4.16m (18’5 x 13’8) to share and the streamlined kitchen is tucked into its own space so it doesn’t dominate the whole room. Sleek units provide plenty of storage, hygienic surfaces look great but are also practical and good to go, integrated appliances include a touch induction hob, fan oven, lit hood and fridge freezer.

Outside, the courtyard is a private retreat, child and pet secure behind walls. Facing southeast with space for a table, chairs and pots it is paved and lit for easy use. Backing onto the gardens of the historic houses behind it, it’s an oasis of calm and the ideal spot to soak up the quietude of its unique mews location where it’s easy to forget that you’re within walking distance of the vibrant city centre, although it’s also perfect for the sociable, al fresco lifestyle Brighton is famous for!
Returning inside, the first of the double bedrooms is currently used as a single room with space for quiet study and looks over the courtyard garden. Vaulted, with 3.3 x 3.05m (10’10 x 10’0) to relax into, it is quiet and comfortable. Next door, the luxury bathroom has a stylish, contemporary suite complete with a shower above the bath and designed for VIP’s, there’s a vanity unit beneath the hand basin and warming rails for towels. A large cupboard ensures the bungalow works well for everyday not just for holidays whilst at the front, the principal bedroom is a charming retreat, shimmering in designer wallpaper and ready to move into with 2.92 x 4.16m (9’7 x 13’8) in which to unwind.

Agent says:
“This luxury retreat with a stylish finish is in a great place to live with friendly local amenities, parks and schools only a few minutes away on foot and the station, at the top of the North Laine, a short drive/bus trip or 20 min walk and the sea easy to reach.”

Owner’s secret:
“Warm in the winter but light and airy during summer, this house is always welcoming and recently refurbished it is also easy to maintain. Private and quiet inside, the parking makes life easy and it suits a busy lifestyle as the mews is hidden away with friendly neighbours who look out for each other. The living room is a lovely place to join guests for a relaxed evening, although my favourite place is being with friends in the courtyard garden whilst we decide where we’re going to explore – there’s always somewhere new to try! 7 Dials is on the doorstep with cafés, bars and shops to enjoy and the Lanes, Western Road and the sea are very easy to get to by bus or on foot, so there really is something for everyone. Local schools are good and nearby, the parks cater for adults as well as children and there’s almost 24hr transport links to the stations and airports.”
