Marlborough Street, Brighton

Tucked away on one of Brighton's charming central streets, this beautiful Victorian cottage offers a rare combination of character, privacy and outdoor space, all just moments from the city's shops, restaurants, seafront and station.

Arranged across three floors, the house has a wonderful sense of flow throughout. The ground floor is centred around a spacious through living room, where natural light creates a warm and welcoming atmosphere. To the rear, the kitchen/dining room opens directly onto a secluded courtyard garden, creating a seamless connection between inside and out.

Surrounded by mature planting and established grapevines, the garden feels remarkably private for such a central location. It is the sort of space that invites long summer lunches, evening drinks with friends or simply a quiet morning coffee before the city wakes up.

Upstairs, the first floor is home to a generous principal bedroom spanning the full width of the property, alongside a beautifully appointed bathroom featuring Carrara marble tiling, a Victorian-style suite and an original roll-top bath. Also accessed from this floor is a delightful roof terrace, offering a second outdoor retreat and another wonderfully private spot to enjoy the sunshine.

The second floor provides a further double bedroom, tucked away beneath the roofline and offering a peaceful separation from the principal accommodation below.

Whether you're searching for a home in the heart of Brighton or a well-positioned investment, this Victorian cottage offers a rare balance of privacy, outdoor space and city convenience.

Having been successfully let for several years, the property presents an attractive opportunity for investors, while equally appealing to owner-occupiers looking for a home with character in a prime central location.
