Hollingbury Copse, Brighton, East Sussex, BN1

Hollingbury Copse is a quiet residential close, tucked away in the popular Surrenden area of Brighton. The property is contemporary and elegant, with abundant natural daylight, fantanstic proportions and high spec fixtures. The décor is chic and neutral with attention to detail throughout.

A large welcoming entrance hall leads to two separate reception areas. The first has full-width sliding doors and looks out onto the pretty front garden. The second is dual-aspect and also has sliding-doors onto the terrace and sunny rear garden beyond. In winter the woodburning stove keeps the room cosy and inviting.

Along the hallway an impressive, split-level kitchen dining area with fitted appliances is bathed in natural daylight thanks to huge bi-fold doors which open out onto the rear garden. The "snug" is a cosy sociable adjacent space with a utility room next door.

The principal bedroom has distant sea views and is accessed via its own private staircase. It has double height vaulted ceilings and wide sliding doors onto a private balcony. The main staircase leads up to three large bedrooms, variously used by the vendors as bedrooms or home offices. Recently four adults have been able to work separately from home. This floor also houses a tastefully designed family bathroom. On the second floor is a further bedroom that comes a close second to the principal bedroom, with equally impressive sea views and a superb en-suite bathroom.

Situation

The house comes with a DOUBLE garage and beautifully landscaped gardens both at the front and rear. With free on-street parking and the proximity of local stations, commuters are well served by London Road and Preston Park stations with links to Gatwick and London. There is simple access from the Ditchling Road to the A23.

There are green spaces and woods opposite, as well as a good selection of local cafes, bars and restaurants at Fiveways and London Road. There are a range of fantastic primary and secondary school nearby, including Varndean, Balfour and Dorothy Stringer.

Additional Information

The house has underfloor heating throughout the ground floor, an air source heat pump, PV electricity generating panels (receiving the highest feed in tariff) and exceptional levels of insulation. The property has been part of the Brighton ‘Open Eco Houses’ event and offers high sustainability and energy efficiency ratings, with correspondingly low running costs.
