Inside, the marriage of glorious Victorian bones with bold, contemporary design is thrilling. Soaring original plasterwork ceilings, marble fireplaces, and graceful bay windows sit in easy harmony with a dramatically modern lower ground floor kitchen — a sleek poured resin floor underfoot, full-height handleless timber cabinetry, a sculptural island and floor-to-ceiling glazing which opens directly to the slate-flagged terrace and the exceptional garden beyond. While the ground floor is finished with engineered oak flooring laid over the original structure, the home’s authentic character is beautifully revealed in the primary bedroom, where the original pine floorboards have been carefully restored and sanded, showcasing their natural texture and heritage. Whether hosting a dinner party for twelve or a lazy Sunday breakfast for the family, this house rises to every occasion with effortless grace.
The Ground Floor — Living Room, Family Room and Extension:
The grace of this Victorian house is immediately apparent on the ground floor where two superb reception rooms flank the hallway, each with a broad bay window, an ornate original plasterwork ceiling and the kind of generous proportions that only a house of this era and quality can deliver. The living room is a room of real beauty — a carved marble fireplace, period detailing overhead and a bay which floods the space with light. The family room is equally striking, full of character and ready to become whatever the next family needs – a playroom, a second sitting room, a music room or a teenage den. An extension to this level now provides a practical boot room, additional wardrobe storage and a bathroom. It also has seamless access to the garden, a genuine rarity in central Brighton, which in turn has direct access to the rear of the garage.
The Lower Ground Floor — Kitchen, Dining and Breakfast Room, Utility and Patio:
Dropping down to the lower ground floor is to enter an entirely different world — and it is sensational. The kitchen, dining and breakfast room is the remarkable beating heart of this house: a vast, light-filled space where poured resin floor flows underfoot and full-height handleless timber units line the walls in a finish that would not look out of place in an architectural magazine. A sculptural island anchors the room, with an induction hob set into its generous quartz surface and bar stools on the far side for informal mornings. Double ovens sit at eye level, the space is beautifully considered and floor-to-ceiling glazing draws the eye directly to the slate-flagged terrace and the spiral staircase to the garden beyond. A discreet utility room/WC sits conveniently off the kitchen, alongside a useful storeroom and a characterful wine cellar.
The Garden:
Step outside and the scale of this garden will stop you in your tracks. Behind a sheltered slate terrace – perfect for alfresco dining and long summer evenings – a generous lawn stretches away, bordered by mature trees, shrubs and planting beds which give the space a privacy and seclusion that belies its central location entirely. At the far end, raised beds and a productive kitchen garden sit beside a shed with its own sunny gravelled spot — a proper country garden tucked into the heart of the city –– and rear access to the wide garage which also has an EV charger. Child and pet secure, full of character and wonderfully private, this is the kind of outdoor space that Brighton buyers dream of and very rarely find.
The First Floor — Principal Bedroom, Further Bedrooms and Shower Room:
Upstairs, the first floor delivers three substantial double bedrooms, each inheriting the graceful proportions of the floors below. The principal bedroom is a calm, light-filled sanctuary with high ceilings and an east-facing aspect overlooking the garden, with original pine floorboards that have been carefully sanded to reveal their natural character. Bedroom two is currently arranged as a study, enjoying a west-facing aspect with warm afternoon and evening light. A well-appointed shower room serves this floor with ease, and bedroom five works beautifully as a nursery or dressing room.
The Second Floor — Further Bedrooms and Bathroom:
The top floor forms a tranquil retreat, with three further well-proportioned double bedrooms, all served by a beautiful family bathroom. Each room enjoys the restful proportions and natural light characteristic of a Victorian home of this quality, creating a calm and versatile upper level.
