A timeless classic of white units with black granite surfaces it won’t date – and check out the plinth storage!

An under stair cupboard keeps things clutter free, and a cloakroom for visitors is hidden away.
A peaceful oasis child and pet secure behind brick walls, the black and white theme continues in the beautiful garden, perfect for al fresco dining with tumbled limestone paving and lighting behind raised beds. Ideal for soaking up the sun – and you can tell it’s a suntrap by the size of the figs- it’s scented by a pear tree and planted for all year interest and ease of maintenance, so you’ll have more time to enjoy it.
Up on the bright landing, the first of the double bedrooms is quiet with garden views and next door, a contemporary bathroom has all you need including a glamorous lit mirrored cabinet. On the first floor, the second double bedroom is also peaceful at the back and has pretty period features and character of its own. At the front, spanning the whole of the front of the building, the spacious principal bedroom has a whole wall of wardrobes and access to a balcony where you can enjoy a glimpse of the sea at the bottom of the hill. Private at the top, the inviting guest suite has built in storage, a chic en-suite and stunning coastal views sweeping from the glittering pier to the surrounding downs.
Agent Says:
“Families stay in this popular location until their children have grown up and moved on, which makes homes in these attractive terraces, close to good schools difficult to find, and this beautifully extended house is good to go with a family friendly flow, sociable layout and stylish, landscaped garden.”
Owner’s Secret:
“We came to view the property because we were looking for a family house but wanted to be able to walk to work, to the sea and local shops, and instantly fell in love with the pretty terrace and how calm this house felt inside. The house is characterful with serene period proportions, and when we upgraded we made sure we brought as much light as possible into the house, so it’s very relaxing to come home to. The flowing layout and big, bright rooms are perfect for young children as well as for entertaining and there is plenty of space for us to spread into, and we have enjoyed many happy celebrations in the garden. After moving, we discovered just how convenient the house was for the Pavilion, arts venues and the famous Lanes as well as for Queen’s Park tennis courts, playground and café and schools.”
