Stanford Road, Brighton

Beautifully reimagined Victorian living with versatile annexe potential, bespoke kitchen and accommodation over four floors

Brighton & Hove is renowned for its cultural diversity, offering world class shopping, restaurants and provision of the arts. Preston Park station is one stop away from Brighton station, providing regular mainline services to Gatwick Airport and London. Recreational facilities are in abundance, including numerous first-class gyms, swimming, tennis, paddle, and sailing at Brighton Marina. There are also a range of revered state and private schools locally.

Having undergone an exceptional programme of renovation and remodelling, this substantial Victorian terraced home effortlessly combines the elegance of its period origins with the comforts of contemporary living. Arranged over four beautifully presented floors, the property offers remarkably flexible accommodation, including the potential for self-contained annexe living within the lower ground floor. Throughout the house, original character features have been carefully preserved and enhanced by thoughtfully considered modern touches. Extensive improvements include replacement windows, complete rewiring and replumbing, alongside a stylish interior scheme that creates a cohesive and trendy atmosphere. At the heart of the home is a stunning bespoke kitchen, beautifully designed opening onto the dining area, creating an impressive free flowing space ideal for both everyday family life and entertaining. A practical utility room is discreetly positioned to the rear. Across the upper floors are five bedrooms including a generous principal bedroom with en-suite shower room, complemented by a well appointed family bathroom. The lower ground floor provides exceptional versatility, currently comprising a sitting room, bedroom, shower room and gym presenting an ideal opportunity for guest accommodation, multigenerational living or the creation of a self-contained annexe. Outside, the landscaped rear garden has been thoughtfully designed to provide a series of private outdoor spaces that can be enjoyed throughout the day. Contemporary rendered walls, architectural planting and carefully defined seating areas create a tranquil and secluded setting, while both the front and rear gardens benefit from practical storage including bike and garden sheds, each thoughtfully finished with attractive living roofs.
