KNIGHT & KNOXLEY are delighted to present this handsome Victorian house on Springfield Road, just moments from Preston Park. Thoughtfully renovated by the current owners, the house combines elegant period proportions with carefully considered contemporary improvements. With over 1,950sqft of accommodation arranged over four floors, a remarkable 22m rear south-facing garden that widens to approximately 10m at the rear, and planning permission has been previously granted for a side return and lower ground floor extension, this is a substantial and versatile family home in a highly desirable central Brighton location.

A traditional raised entrance and bay-fronted façade create a fine first impression. Inside, the ground floor feels both welcoming and characterful. The living room at the front features a working fireplace with a well-maintained chimney, tall ceilings and a large bay window fitted with shutters. The room is rich in period detail yet feels contemporary with striking wallpaper.

The kitchen has been remodelled to create a generous and sociable space, flowing through to the dining area. Fired Earth tiles and quality fittings give the kitchen a timeless finish, while French doors and additional side windows bring in excellent natural light. From here, doors open onto a decked terrace - replaced in 2023 - which steps down to the garden beyond.

The garden is a rare highlight. Extended under a peppercorn lease agreement with Network Rail, it now measures approximately 22m in length and becomes double width at the rear (around 10m wide), creating an unusually expansive outdoor space for this location. There is ample room for entertaining, play and gardening, and the current owners have even accommodated a wood-fired hot tub seating up to eight people. The upper deck provides a perfect spot for outdoor dining.

On the lower ground floor, the layout has been opened up to enhance flow and usability. This level now offers a flexible living space alongside a study (formerly the utility room), ideal for home working, and a contemporary shower room. Planning permission was granted in 2022 for a side return and further extension on this floor, and full drawings and documentation are available to pass on as part of the sale.

The first floor provides two well-proportioned double bedrooms and a stylish family bathroom, remodelled in 2019 with Fired Earth floor tiles and underfloor heating. The principal bedroom spans the full width of the house at the front, while the rear bedroom enjoys a peaceful outlook over the garden.
