Kingsbury Street is a peaceful residential no-through road in a fabulous central location. Brighton Station is close by, making it ideal for commuters, while local shops, bars and cafés are literally around the corner. The vibrant North Laine, city centre and seafront are all easily accessible, with The Level and Preston Park also within walking distance, offering easy access to some of the city’s best green spaces.

This beautifully presented two-bedroom period terraced house offers stylish and characterful accommodation arranged over two floors. Blending period charm with contemporary finishes, the property benefits from generous living space, a well-established rear garden and a highly desirable location.

The front door opens into an entrance hall leading through to an impressive dual aspect through lounge/dining room extending to over 22’ in length. The lounge area has a large window to the front and an attractive feature fireplace, whilst the dining area has a glazed multi-paned door leading to the garden, making this a bright and airy room. The stylish kitchen is fitted with shaker-style units complemented by wood-effect worktops, a Belfast sink positioned beneath window overlooking the garden, quarry tiled flooring, space for appliances, open shelving and decorative tiled splashbacks. French doors provide access to the garden.

Moving up to the first floor, the principal bedroom is positioned at the front of the property and is a generous double room with a large window, exposed brick chimney breast, original-style cast iron fireplace and painted floorboards, all of which contribute to its character and charm. The second bedroom also features painted floorboards and overlooks the rear garden. Currently arranged as a guest room/home office, it offers flexible accommodation suitable for a variety of needs. Completing the accommodation on this floor, the spacious dual aspect bathroom is a particular feature of the house. Beautifully presented and filled with natural light, it includes a freestanding claw-foot bath with shower attachment, pedestal wash basin, WC, feature tiling, period fireplace, timber flooring and built-in storage cupboard, creating a stylish and relaxing space.

The spacious loft space is accessed via a pull-down ladder and offers substantial storage and potential for conversion, subject to the necessary consents.

Outside, the charming south facing garden can be accessed from both the dining room and the kitchen via the paved side return. This leads to a paved patio area providing an ideal spot for outdoor dining and entertaining and a lawned area bordered by mature shrubs and trees.


What the owner says:
“I moved to Brighton from London in 2017 and spent almost a year looking for the right home. When I found this house on Kingsbury Street, I couldn’t believe my luck – it was everything I had hoped for and more.

As a creative, I instantly loved the blend of period character and contemporary living. The wooden floors, original features and beautiful natural light give the house a wonderfully calm, almost beach-house feel. The living spaces connect so naturally with the kitchen and south-facing garden, which has been a real sanctuary for us – and especially loved by my two cats.

The location was also crucial, as I was still working in London. Being so close to Brighton Station while living on a peaceful street within a friendly residential community has given us the best of both worlds. Everything is within easy reach: the independent shops, cafés and bars of London Road, the Open Market, North Laine, the station and the seafront. After more than 20 years in London, I wanted more space and a connection to the sea and countryside, while still being able to walk everywhere I needed – and this home gave me exactly that.

My partner and I have loved living here for over eight years. The house has such a warm and happy feel, and the beautiful light brings it to life throughout the day. We’ll always cherish our memories here and hope its next owners will love it just as much as we have.”
