Seville Street, Brighton, BN2

Victorian terraced house | Three bedrooms | Through lounge dining room | Kitchen/breakfast room | Luxury bathroom | Additional shower room | Gate to park (The Patch) | Air source heat pump

Seville Street is a quiet road of attractive, red-brick Victorian terraces, tucked away parallel to Franklin Road in the Elm Grove area, with no through traffic. This area has a wide appeal, to both those looking for easy access to the city centre and Brighton Station, and also to families who want to be close to parks and schools. On Lewes Road, there are local shops and cafés and excellent bus services into town. William Clarke Park, which is known locally as The Patch, is accessible from the garden via a gate and has a children’s play area and a pond. Elm Grove and Fairlight Primary schools are a short walk away and the house is in the catchment area for Dorothy Stringer and Varndean secondary schools.

This three double-bedroom house has plenty of kerb appeal, it sits back from the street with a walled front garden and has a red brick façade with square bays on the ground and first floor.
This home offers a truly rare opportunity: a private garden that opens directly into the Patch, a much loved community park. Once part of the old railway line connecting Lewes Road to Kemptown, the space has evolved into a friendly, nature rich green haven, the kind of environment you don’t often find in the heart of a city. Despite being within easy walking distance of Brighton’s lively centre, the house sits on a quiet street with little passing traffic.

The house is approached via steps from the street. A welcoming entrance hall with engineered wood floors leads through to the open plan living space. To the front of the property is the main lounge area, beautifully furnished and benefitting from an attractive period fireplace. This in turn is open to the second reception space with those wonderful wooden floors leading all the way through to the kitchen/breakfast room. The kitchen itself is fitted with an extensive range of base and full height kitchen units providing ample storage while white quartz worksurfaces provide a classy finish. Bi-fold doors open to the attractive rear patio garden which enjoys raised borders around the decked patio, while a gate opens to the William Clarke Park – know colloquially as The Patch.

On the first floor are two well-sized bedrooms with the principal room being to the front and benefitting from a period fireplace. To the rear is a small double bedroom. The main bathroom has been beautifully finished with luxurious free-standing bath while clever storage has been incorporated to the room to create a neat laundry space. There is an additional shower room on this floor which is, once again, immaculately finished with a white suite of walk-in shower, wash basin and wc. Gorgeous geometric tiles complete the contemporary look. The top floor is home to a further double bedroom with an en-suite wc. A Juliet balcony provides delightful views across the park and beyond.

This wonderful home has been cleverly reimagined to create a home that offers a blend of modern comfort, alongside period character. Restored floorboards, walk-in wardrobes and reclaimed tiles demonstrate the thoughtful nature of the owners refurbishment, while an air source heat pump adds contemporary convenience.


What the owner say:

“What we’ve loved most about living here is the feeling of being surrounded by nature right in the middle of the city. The house backs directly onto the park, and that has been the biggest gift. Our little one has grown up spending her afternoons playing there with her nursery friends while we parents catch up, and sometimes enjoy a glass of wine together. It’s such a safe, friendly space, and it makes day to day life with young children feel wonderfully easy.

We’ve celebrated birthdays on “the patch” every year — no venue hire, no stress, just children running around freely and adults relaxing in the sunshine. It’s also been the perfect spot for hosting friends for BBQs on the lawns, its like having a massive garden without the upkeep . The sense of community here is something truly special.

Despite being so close to the city, the evenings are peaceful, with only the sounds of wildlife drifting in from the park. The local nurseries and schools are excellent, and you’re genuinely spoiled for choice.

The house itself has been a labour of love — it is warm, comfortable, and easy to live in. It’s bittersweet to leave, but it’s time to downsize. We hope the next family enjoys it as much as we have.”
