Beach Bank, Brighton Le Sands, L22

There’s character, and then there’s Beach Bank.

An Edwardian family home with incredible craftsmanship throughout and a real sense of history the moment you walk in.

There are ten fireplaces in total (yes, ten). Leaded light windows, original doors, and even the brass finger plates are still in immaculate condition - every detail has been lovingly cared for.

Set on Beach Bank itself, the house enjoys idyllic views across the sand dunes and out to sea. A private driveway and lawned garden lead up to the perfect porch, complete with beautiful tiles and leaded lights.

Step into the grand reception hall and it’s a showstopper - the first of those ten fireplaces, a crafted corner seat, and even a clever built-in storage bench under the stairs.

The front lounge has a window seat for soaking up those views. The wall to the former dining room has been opened up to create great space and flow, with double doors leading outside (which have been meticulously designed to match the Edwardian originals).

Through one of two stained glass doors, you’ll find the spacious dining kitchen - full of charm with a Belfast sink, bespoke cabinetry, dishwasher, and space for a range-style cooker (included if wished).

Upstairs, the boutique-style bathroom is stunning - freestanding bath under a skylight for star-gazing soaks, huge walk-in shower, high-level cistern WC, panelling and yes, another original fireplace.

There are four bedrooms on this floor, one currently used as a utility room. The master and third bedroom both enjoy sea views.

Head up again to the top floor, once the servants’ quarters with the footprint of four bedrooms, now reimagined with a workshop, craft room and two front rooms merged into one, giving incredible views over the Welsh hills (ask to take a peek through the telescope and you’ll see!).

To the rear, there’s a generous walled courtyard. The current concrete finish keeps things low-maintenance, but take a look at the AI image to see how easily it could be transformed with artificial lawn and a bit of imagination.

Offered for sale with no onward chain, Beach Bank is full of warmth, history, and craftsmanship that simply can’t be recreated today.

A note from the seller: “We love the peace and tranquillity - it’s our safe place. The house has presence and elegance, inside and out. The most solid construction, rich in Edwardian craftsmanship, spacious and airy, open and very adaptable.

We look westward to the open sea, close enough to hear waves on the shore, to distant snowcapped Welsh mountains in winter and the most spectacular sunsets. The views are stunning and ever changing; there’s always something going on.

We are surrounded on all sides by lovely neighbours and there is a real sense of community and constancy in this area.

It is a truly special place, it has never let us down, our happy home for 40 years - it will be hard to leave.”
