INTERNAL VIEWINGS AVAILABLE ON REQUEST.

In a great area 3 minutes’ walk from Fiveways Village, given a top spot in The Sunday Times Best Places to Live Guide, this stylish three bedroom Edwardian house with open views at the back for uninterrupted sunshine, an unusually large, landscaped garden and free parking has family friendly Hollingbury and Blaker’s Parks nearby, good primary and senior schools within 5 minutes by car, and direct trains to Gatwick and London from Preston Park Station 7 minutes by cab. Inside, spacious split levels embrace a contemporary lifestyle and offer options if you work from home, and you can enjoy a roaring fire in the elegant living room. At the back, a beautiful family room/kitchen/diner offers sophisticated open plan living and folds open to a broad terrace for entertaining, and a sun-drenched oasis beneath has tiered ‘rooms’ to explore – one with a south facing summerhouse and area for informal, al fresco catch ups. Upstairs all three bedrooms are quiet, comfortable doubles with the contemporary bathroom and elegant principal on the top level together, so it feels like a private suite!

In a quiet enclave of attractive historic terraces surrounded by green spaces which also host events during our legendary festivals, homes here do not come onto the market often- and sell fast as professionals, families and international investors are beginning to realise that this area delivers spacious houses, large gardens and free parking with swift access to the city centre: Ditchling Road, just around the corner, takes you to the historic heart of Brighton and its beaches or to the National Park, whilst Lewes Road at the bottom of the hill delivers you to the city centre, universities or caost along the A27 or to the A23 for the motorway.

Why you’ll like it:
Quiet but convenient with plentiful free street parking and bus routes giving older children independence, this is a popular area within our famous coastal city surrounded by green spaces but with easy access to the city. Set down and back from the road with a discreet covered space for bikes, this Edwardian house has plenty of charm from the kerb and generous windows already have energy efficient windows in place.

Inside a light touch with an artistic eye has created a delightful, family friendly home with stylish colour choice and wooden floors throughout, and this sensitive design approach begins in the inviting lobby where wood underfoot and a glimpse of the open views through to the garden invites company. Quiet and comfortable, the living room has plenty of space in which to work, rest or play where guests can relax in front of an open fire, and there’s an easy flow down to the fabulous, open plan family dining room and kitchen - with great views.

Full of sunshine, this creative space is all about enjoying friends and family with ample space for sofas and a large table - and a deep, under stair cupboard keeps the room tidy. Running across the whole of the back of the building, you can dine in complete seclusion and admire leafy views framed by a bank of bi-folding doors which fold away to the sun terrace and the garden, and underfoot, a unique ‘rug’ was made by the owner from newspapers found beneath the carpet before she stripped the floorboards back to their former glory.

Practical for every day but also great for parties, the kitchen is a classic which won’t date, and it is tucked safely away from the in/out flow behind a sociable breakfast bar. Thoughtfully planned with ample storage and practical working surfaces, the layout flows well with everything to hand from the electric grill and oven. There is plenty of space for a fridge freezer, and good to go, both a dishwasher and a washing machine are integrated for you.

Outside is a private paradise on an open hillside which faces east but is open to the south, so it catches the sun for most of the day. Level with the house, the paved sun terrace is large enough for entertaining in style and could easily be made child and pet secure by adding a gate at the top of the broad, shallow steps to the lower tier where vegetable and fruit planters and a shed could stay, subject to circumstance and negotiation. A secret retreat with space for private meals or a glass of something chilled when children or guests have retired for the night, the third tier is big and bright with a south facing summerhouse (which the vendor is willing to discuss), a seaside influence in the pebbles and the plants were chosen for all year interest.

Returning inside, upstairs, two spacious double bedrooms are quiet with plenty of character and space of their own and both have glorious views which sweep over lower distant rooftops from Hollingbury woods to the Grandstand at Race Hill, so they are not overlooked. At the top, the principal bedroom is a tranquil refuge in which to unwind, decorated in the heritage hues of Farrow & Ball. A generous double it is raised from the other two bedrooms, so feels very private and next door to a stylish bathroom with a shower attachment and a rainfall head shower at one end and a warming rail for towels at the other, it feels like a bedroom with a chic en-suite!

Agent Says:
“Ideal for professionals and/or a growing family close to schools, parks, the city and the station, houses in these tranquil terraces close to Fiveways, good schools and a choice of parks sell fast. This light and spacious home is ready to move into with a large, sociable garden which gets the sun for most of the day.”

Owner’s secret:
“We have shared many celebrations both inside and out, and family life is made easy with parks, good schools and shops all within easy reach. Inside, we have tried to keep the rooms simple but stylish, and we love the way the house opens to the fresh air in summer with plenty of sunny space outside to enjoy but then becomes warm and cosy in winter. The street is quiet and friendly, and the area is a great place to live with a real community, al fresco cafés and independent shops including a bakers and butchers, our neighbours are lovely, and the house has occasionally provided a B&B income as it’s so easy to get into the city centre and the sea.”

There are local shops to pop into around the corner from this Edwardian beauty and Fiveways’ cafés, bakers and independent stores are just a 3 minute walk so you can enjoy the facilities of an area given a top spot in the Sunday Times Best Places to Live guide without paying a premium! The international restaurants of central Brighton and the vibrant al fresco lifestyle of the North Laine are just a short drive and the whole of our intercontinental coastal resort is easy to reach with regular buses on both Ditchling and Lewes Road which take you out of the city to the universities and National Park, or to the sea and central Brighton with its station and direct trains to Gatwick and Brighton.
