On the top floor, a further generous double bedroom benefits from eaves storage and an en-suite bathroom, creating a private and versatile suite ideal for guests or older children.
The house has been carefully maintained and improved throughout. An Alpha boiler was installed in 2018 and is serviced annually (most recently June 2025). In recent years, the owners have sanded floorboards, redecorated extensively, installed shutters, replaced selected sash windows, updated carpets and wallpaper, and repainted woodwork. An electric vehicle charger has been installed at the front of the property.
Springfield Road is a residential street of Victorian properties just north of Preston Circus and south of Preston Park. Downs Infant and Junior Schools are just around the corner, and the house is also in the catchment area for Dorothy Stringer and Varndean secondary schools. Just around the corner, St Augustine's Arts and Events Centre has yoga classes, art exhibitions and its own café. On Sundays there is a market in Florence Road. Preston Park has large open spaces, a children's playground, tennis courts, a velodrome and two cafés. The Duke of York's Picturehouse, Brighton's much-loved independent cinema, is also moments away at Preston Circus, screening a wide variety of films throughout the week. A short stroll down London Road brings you to the vibrant Open Market, home to independent shops, artists' studios and plaza traders with stalls selling handmade arts and crafts, delicious food and much more. There are great local pubs and restaurants including the Open House, Signalman, Jolly Brewer, Preston Park Tavern and the Roundhill, all close by. The Roundhill is notable for its entirely vegan kitchen, serving award-winning plant-based meals. The property is ideally located for commuters, as Brighton Mainline station is a short walk away with direct services to London Bridge and Victoria in less than an hour. Even closer is London Road station, connecting not only back into Brighton within a couple of minutes, but with services to Lewes and beyond. Several bus routes run nearby including the 5, 5A and 5B, which go straight into town.
