Set on a quiet Victorian terraced road in the sought after West Hill Conservation Area, Clifton Street is quintessential Brighton. Picturesque period properties neatly lining the road, peaceful and just moments from the city’s vibrant heart.
Perfectly positioned between Brighton Station and Seven Dials, this beautifully modernised four bedroom townhouse offers flexible living, home and income potential, separate office space, two private outside areas and a fully boarded and insulated loft room with Velux windows.
Entering at raised ground floor level, the home immediately impresses. The open plan kitchen and dining space is flooded with natural light from a striking glass ceiling that runs the length of the rear extension. At its centre, a generous island creates a natural social hub, ideal for entertaining or relaxed family living. The design led kitchen features a five ring gas hob built into the island along with Neff appliances including an extractor fan, oven and steam oven. Extensive cabinetry provides excellent storage.
Flowing effortlessly from the kitchen/dining space, the living room is rich in character. Decorated in dramatic dark tones with elegant gold detailing, the space beautifully highlights the period features including the bay window, traditional wooden panelling and a charming painted tile fireplace depicting a pastoral scene of a diving House Martin into a calm stream. A cloakroom has been thoughtfully added beneath the stairs for guest convenience.
On the half landing, a bright and tranquil office space offers an ideal work from home setting, creative studio or painting retreat thanks to the abundance of natural light. A cleverly hidden Murphy Bed allows this room to be offered up as further bedroom for those times when extra guests have arrived. From here, doors open onto a sunny and private west facing terrace garden.
The main family bathroom delivers five star luxury, finished in striking black tiles with white veining. A freestanding bath, separate shower, WC and twin sinks create a spa like feel.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom is decorated in warm natural tones and benefits from built in wardrobes along the far wall and beside a beautiful marble fireplace. A curving mahogany balustrade leads to the second floor where two further double bedrooms are served by a Jack and Jill bathroom. From the landing, a ladder accesses the insulated and boarded loft room with Velux windows, ideal for storage or an unofficial teenage retreat.
The lower ground floor houses a self-contained studio under the same freehold title and utilities, though in a separate council tax band. With its own entrance and private front patio finished in classic black and white tiles, this space is perfect for guests, older children, multi-generational living or as a valuable income opportunity through short or long-term letting.
Location is key. West Hill rises from Brighton Station, just 0.2 miles away, towards Seven Dials at 0.3 miles. Clifton Street’s attractive Victorian villas offer a peaceful residential setting only moments from independent coffee shops, restaurants, bars and a local Co Op. Brighton Station provides direct links to London Victoria, London Bridge and beyond, making this an excellent choice for commuters.
Families are well served by a range of highly regarded schools. Local primary options include St Pauls CE, St Mary Magdalen Catholic, Stanford Infant and Junior and Middle Street. Secondary schools include Cardinal Newman Catholic, Dorothy Stringer, Hove Park and Blatchington Mill. Private options include Brighton Girls, Brighton College and Lancing Prep.
