With an imposing façade this double fronted period property dates back to the 1850s. Substantial in size - 1851 sq ft in total - and arranged over four levels, this charming early Victorian home oozes character. The well arranged and spacious accommodation has a rustic-style finish and an inviting, homely feel with natural wood floors and some original features. The ground floor consists of a double aspect lounge with an impressive fireplace and French doors that lead out to a sun terrace, plus a bedroom/study. The garden level comprises a country-style kitchen/breakfast room giving access to an attractive rear garden with flint-walled boundaries, dining room, utility room, bathroom plus separate WC. On the upper levels are four generously proportioned bedrooms, bathroom with freestanding bath, shower room plus WC and coastal views at the rear towards Brighton Marina and the sea. Located just a stone's throw from the seafront and Brighton Marina Village, and only a few minutes' drive from Brighton College, Roedean School and the Royal Sussex County Hospital, the property would make an ideal family home.
