This attractive period home is arranged over three well-balanced floors, offering generous proportions throughout. The layout works equally well for shared living or single-family occupation, making it a rare opportunity for buyers seeking versatility in one of Brighton’s most desirable residential settings.

Why You’ll Like It

The ground floor is centred around an impressive open-plan lounge/dining room, measuring over 24 feet in length. This expansive space benefits from a large bay window to the front, flooding the room with natural light and offering pleasant outlooks across Queens Park. It is a sociable and flexible area, equally suited to entertaining, relaxing or reconfiguring as a more traditional family living space.

To the rear of the ground floor sits the kitchen, which provides practical worktop and storage space and direct access to the rear patio garden. This outdoor area offers a private spot for seating, dining or entertaining, particularly appealing for both occupiers and tenants alike.

Externally, the property also benefits from a front patio, an often-overlooked but highly practical feature — ideal for secure bicycle storage, bins, or planting, and particularly valuable given the proximity to the park, seafront and city centre.

The first floor comprises two well-proportioned bedrooms, including a generous principal room to the front. A centrally positioned family bathroom serves this level, conveniently located for both family living and shared occupation.

The second floor offers two further bedrooms, providing excellent flexibility — whether as children’s rooms, guest accommodation, home offices, or additional letting rooms under the current HMO arrangement.

Importantly, there is clear potential to extend into the loft, subject to the necessary consents, offering scope to create an additional bedroom, principal suite or further living space. This opportunity to enhance and add value mirrors similar successful extensions along the road.

Estate Agent’s Thoughts

“This is a genuinely versatile property in a standout location. The current HMO income will appeal strongly to investors, but what really sets this house apart is how easily it could transition back into a beautiful family home or high-quality residence for a professional buyer. The size, the outdoor space at both ends of the house, and the future loft potential make this a very compelling long-term proposition.”
