Port Hall Place, Brighton

Set on a quiet, wide street lined with attractive Victorian homes, this beautifully arranged maisonette offers bright, versatile living space in the ever-popular Port Hall area – loved by families and professionals alike for its excellent schools, green spaces and convenient transport links. Ready to move straight into, the property combines a practical layout with a relaxed, lifestyle-led feel throughout. 

A wide and welcoming entrance hallway immediately sets the tone, filled with natural light thanks to feature glass bricks and offering useful built-in storage. From here, the home opens into an impressive open-plan living and dining space spanning the length of the home. Generous in scale and highly versatile, this is a space equally suited to quiet evenings in or entertaining friends and family. Double doors open onto a private balcony – a peaceful spot for morning coffee or evening drinks overlooking the surrounding rooftops. The kitchen sits neatly to the rear of the living space, well-presented, functional and perfectly positioned for modern day-to-day living. 

Stairs rise to the first floor, where the principal bedroom sits at the front of the house and benefits from extensive built-in storage solutions. A second spacious double bedroom sits peacefully to the rear, enjoying rooftop views stretching towards the green canopy of Preston Park. The bathroom is spacious and well presented, fitted with a bath and shower over. 

Occupying the top floor is a particularly private and spacious third bedroom, tucked away from the rest of the home and ideal as a principal suite, guest room or peaceful retreat. The elevated position brings lovely rooftop views, excellent storage and a calm sense of separation from the main living areas. The landing also creates an ideal work-from-home nook, perfectly suited to a desk or reading corner. 

The current owners say: 
“We fell in love with the bright, airy feel of the living space immediately – it’s been the perfect backdrop for both quiet mornings and hosting friends. Having so much built-in storage has been a total game-changer for staying organised. We’veparticularly loved the low-maintenance outdoor space; the balcony is a lovely spot for a morning coffee. Life here is incredibly convenient; we’re right by Seven Dials and can easily wander into either Brighton or Hove. Plus, having several beautiful parks nearby has been one of our favourite parts of living in this friendly community.”
