Great College Street, Brighton

Elegant Kemptown home blending period charm with modern living, featuring bright interiors, a private courtyard garden, and a prime seaside location near Brighton’s vibrant seafront.

The Property - Located in the heart of Kemp Town, just moments from the seafront, Royal Sussex County Hospital and Brighton College, this elegant family home offers a rare blend of period character and modern comfort. Built around 1800, the house retains many of its original features while being thoughtfully adapted for contemporary living.

A striking red front door opens into a welcoming porch, leading into a wide hallway with a graceful statement staircase. To the left, the kitchen and reception space runs the full length of the house, designed for both family life and entertaining. Stripped wooden floorboards add warmth and character, while a large bay window fills the sitting area with light. A central dining space leads through to the modern kitchen at the rear, fitted with cream cabinetry, black worktops, and a substantial Leisure Cookmaster oven. Integrated appliances, including a dishwasher, along with ample storage and preparation space, make this a highly practical cooking environment.

From the hallway, there is useful under-stairs storage with space for a washing machine and tumble dryer. A well-appointed family bathroom on the ground floor features a freestanding bath and separate shower. Beyond, a door opens to a private and enclosed courtyard garden with a striking mural - a peaceful retreat away from the vibrant energy of Brighton.

Upstairs, three well-proportioned bedrooms provide comfortable accommodation, accompanied by a practical WC. The principal bedroom at the front mirrors the downstairs reception with a generous bay window overlooking the street, while the rear bedroom enjoys tranquil views over the garden. A large airing cupboard on the landing and a boarded loft space add to the home’s excellent storage solutions.
