Description

Ideal for first-time buyers, professionals, or young families, this central Brighton home combines period charm with well-presented, practical living across three levels.

The lower ground floor is home to a generous kitchen and family area designed for relaxed daily living. With fitted units and plenty of workspace, this room provides the perfect balance of style and function. There’s ample room for a dining table, and the open layout encourages an easy flow for family gatherings or entertaining friends. The natural light highlights the soft tones of the décor and the warmth of the stripped wooden flooring, creating a calm, welcoming atmosphere. A conveniently located shower room on this level adds flexibility and is ideal for guests or busy mornings.

The ground floor features a bright, spacious reception room extending across the length and width of the house. Period casement windows at the front allow natural light to flood in, while the rear windows, (some triple glazed), help retain warmth and quiet. This space easily accommodates both a sitting and dining area, offering the ideal setting for relaxed evenings or hosting. Period features such as original flooring and joinery add a touch of heritage, reminding you of the home’s character and history.

To the rear, a garden room opens directly onto a lovely east-facing garden, where the morning light fills the space with warmth. The garden provides a peaceful outdoor retreat with room for seating, plants, or family play. It’s a great area for children to enjoy or for summer dining. The garden’s low-maintenance design means it can be enjoyed year-round without extensive upkeep, making it ideal for those with busy lifestyles who still value private outdoor space.

Upstairs, two well-presented bedrooms offer comfort and flexibility. The main bedroom feels spacious and inviting, easily accommodating a double bed and storage, while the double second bedroom works perfectly as a child’s room, guest space, or home office. A second bathroom serves this level, creating a well-balanced layout that suits family life or shared living. Throughout the property, the condition is excellent, with tasteful decoration and thoughtful updates that blend modern comfort with classic character.

The combination of casement windows, stripped wooden flooring, and subtle period details gives this home its distinctive charm. Each room feels bright, practical, and welcoming. The proportions are well judged, and the use of space across all three floors ensures flexibility for changing needs. Whether it’s the warmth of the kitchen in winter or the tranquillity of the garden in summer, this property feels ready to enjoy from day one.

Hanover Street is set within one of Brighton’s most desirable and friendly neighbourhoods, known for its colourful terraces, independent spirit, and strong sense of community. The one-way layout of the street keeps traffic to a minimum, creating a quieter environment while still being close to everything Brighton has to offer. Situated towards the bottom of the hill, this home enjoys one of the area’s most convenient positions. Unlike properties higher up, it offers easier walking access to the city centre and nearby amenities, making daily life that bit simpler, especially for families with young children or those who prefer level routes to shops, schools, and transport links.

Brighton Station is within easy reach, providing direct services to London and surrounding towns, while excellent bus routes connect you quickly to the seafront, universities, and other parts of the city.

Local life is lively yet relaxed, with a great mix of cafés, independent shops, and welcoming pubs within a short stroll. Queen’s Park and The Level, two of Brighton’s best-known green spaces, are both nearby, offering open lawns, play areas, and space for picnics or dog walks. Well-regarded local schools and nurseries add to the area’s appeal, making it particularly attractive to growing families.

Living here means enjoying the best of Brighton, a vibrant atmosphere, a genuine sense of community, and everything within walking distance. This home’s position combines convenience with charm, giving residents the full benefit of the area’s character. It’s an ideal spot for those seeking a blend of period style, comfort, and easy access to all that Brighton has to offer.
