West Hill Road, Brighton, BN1

Brilliantly located close to the popular Seven Dials district, this beautiful home provides everything you need to live the quintessential Brighton lifestyle. A rare find in this central location, the property comes with a secure garage on the next road over, with the ability to park in front potentially offering two parking spaces. While it sits centrally to the city with Brighton Mainline Station and the beach within easy walking distance, it is peacefully tucked away on a quiet street within West Hill. Spread over four generous floors, this property has space for families and professionals to live in comfort and luxury. Front doors open to the kitchen on the lower level (ideal for bringing in the food shop), and up a few steps to the raised ground floor where the living room spans the depth of the building, culminating in a south-facing balcony overlooking the garden.

Stepping inside, it is clearly a beautifully maintained home, where colour, fittings and materials have been carefully considered. The ground floor reception room is versatile with two distinct sides. There is space for relaxation, working from home or for children to play all depending on the needs of the family. Bi-folding doors to the south and French doors to the north bring in a wealth of natural light while framing charming views over the historic street or tropical plants in the garden. While these views are private, the windows are also shuttered bringing both form and function to the space. Downstairs, the kitchen and dining room share the same footprint as the living room above, with an open aspect to the north and south. To one side, the kitchen is stylish with navy Shaker cabinetry paired with Moroccan patterned flooring, white stone worktops and high end Meile induction hob & dishwasher. The central island forms an informal social space with breakfast bar seating and a wine fridge, alongside space for an American fridge freezer. To the south of the room, there is space for formal dining to seat at least ten below pendant lighting, which can spill out to the garden via a second set of bi-folding doors during summer. There is underfloor/radiant heating on the lower ground floor as well as the toilet. The fire place in the dining room has a functional flue and could be used with a wood burning stove.

Moving out to the garden, the ground is laid with faux grass creating a low maintenance space for children to play, which steps up to raised decking surrounded by contemporary batten fencing and lush green plants offering privacy to summer lunches and suppers during high season. With a southerly aspect, plants thrive, making it hard to believe you are so close to the city centre. Returning inside, there are two double bedrooms on the first floor, including the principal room which also benefits from built-in wardrobes and a tranquil aspect looking out over the garden. To the front, the bedroom is carpeted, and both rooms benefit from shuttered, double glazed windows and easy access to the main bathroom set between the two. Lined with dark marble porcelain tiles around a white bath suite, this room has timeless appeal. The shower is over the bath and a recessed wall mirror sits above a shelf for toiletries. Elevated higher on the top floor, there are two further double bedrooms with soft carpet underfoot and large Velux or dormer windows, looking out over the historic local landscape. These rooms share use of a modern shower room.What's more, the property also comes with the opportunity to own a garage just round the corner on Compton Avenue. The garage is a secure lock-up single garage with a parking space in front, offering potential parking for either 2 cars or valuable additional storage.
