Upper Wellington Road, Brighton

This beautifully presented Victorian home is arranged over three floors, offering a thoughtful balance of period character and modern, flexible living. Light-filled and well maintained, it’s a home that feels both comfortable and considered, perfectly suited to everyday life as well as entertaining.

Stepping inside, the entrance hall sets a calm and welcoming tone, with a soft neutral palette, stripped wooden floors and painted bannisters. Natural light flows easily throughout the house, creating a bright and airy feel, with the rear of the property enjoying particularly lovely sunsets.

The through living and dining room is a standout space – generous, well-proportioned and easy to live in. A large bay window to the front draws in natural light, while a sash window at the rear connects the space to the garden. A log-burning stove provides a cosy focal point, making it equally suited to relaxed evenings or hosting friends. Practical additions, including a utility cupboard and basement storage, are neatly tucked away.

The kitchen sits just off the dining area, creating a sociable layout that works well for modern living. From here, a door leads out to the garden – a private, low-maintenance space with artificial lawn and a shed, ideal for enjoying a morning coffee or unwinding at the end of the day.

Upstairs, the same sense of style continues. The family bathroom is positioned on the half landing and finished in a clean, contemporary design. Two well-sized double bedrooms on the first floor retain their period charm, with cast-iron feature fireplaces and large sash windows, while a fourth bedroom offers flexibility as a nursery, home office or guest room. There is also a useful loft space, complete with engineered oak flooring. 

The top floor is dedicated to the principal suite, creating a peaceful retreat away from the rest of the home. This spacious bedroom enjoys far-reaching views across Brighton and benefits from a Juliet balcony, perfect for taking in the evening light. A recently added en-suite shower room and eaves storage complete the space.
