5 Bed Detached House For Sale

Prime | Plot | Brighton

In prime position on the crescent; this chalet house sits on the highest single plot stretching from Peacock Lane through to Surrenden Crescent. The house is already sizable with four double bedrooms and a newly built one-bedroom annex to the rear. With a generous south facing garden to the front, and Withdean Park to the rear, this house has an abundance of outside space and stunning leafy views from every room. This is a lovely family home, and while you could certainly add value with some modernisation, it is full of light, space and character. It is ideally located within catchment for some of the highest achieving schools, and transport links by train or car are excellent. Brimming with potential, this is sure to attract the attentions of developers, investors and families alike - looking for their 'forever-home' in a prestigious and hugely attractive area of the city. A planning application had been made to build one large family home on this plot. This has recently expired. Ref -BH2016/06460



Surrenden Crescent was always intended to have an air of exclusivity being graciously wide and tree-lined as it sweeps its way down to London Road. The substantial detached houses which line either side were built in the mid-20th Century, yet today you find a delightful mix of architectural styles ranging from Neo-Tudor through to contemporary. Sitting just outside of Preston Park Conservation Area, there is greater scope for development, and that is what makes this property so exciting.

Uniquely positioned at the centre of the crescent, you are far enough away from both London Road and Surrenden Road that you can see or hear neither, and your surroundings are lush and green in all directions. Secondly, this is one of the last single plots on the road to link right through to Peacock Lane, so you have access either side, and a wonderful line of sight from Withdean Park.
