6 Bedroom Terraced House

An exceptional Grade II* listed Regency end of terrace residence, set within approximately 3.5 acres of private communal gardens, just moments from Brighton’s city centre and seafront.

Extending in excess of 3,000 sq ft, the house is substantial in both scale and presence, executed in a refined Italianate style with striking architectural detail throughout. Period bay walls, intricate detailing and the distinctive tower all speak to its historical importance, while the proportions and light offer a sense of grandeur rarely found so close to the city centre.
Number 1 Park Crescent occupies one of the finest positions within the crescent, benefitting from south east and south west aspects which allow natural light to pour through the house throughout the day. Set discreetly behind electric gates, the property offers off street parking for two vehicles and beautifully arranged accommodation comprising six bedrooms, three principal reception rooms and four bathrooms.

Externally, the beautifully landscaped south facing gardens wrap around the house, creating a remarkably private and tranquil setting. A covered, sunken hot tub has been thoughtfully incorporated, adding an additional layer of luxury and making the garden a space to be enjoyed year round.

Mature planting, scented borders, a fig tree and aged wisteria intertwine with decorative wrought iron balconies, together forming an idyllic backdrop for long summer afternoons and relaxed outdoor living.

Homes of this stature, scale and architectural quality are rarely available to the open market. The combination of private gardens, secure surroundings and proximity to the city creates a unique family environment, offering a quality of life that is seldom associated with central Brighton living.

The house enjoys direct access into the Park Crescent gardens, which are exclusively for residents and entirely secure, accessible only through the houses themselves. These beautifully maintained grounds provide a variety of spaces, from open lawns and children’s play areas to quieter, more secluded corners, ensuring something for all ages and lifestyles. The crescent’s distinctive horseshoe form creates a natural sense of enclosure and privacy, with the gardens maintained for a modest annual contribution.

Historically, the land was once the Prince of Wales Cricket Ground, gifted to Brighton Cricket Club by their patron, the future King George IV. Following the final match in 1847, A H Wilds acquired the site and created the elegant crescent that now encloses the grounds.
The location is highly sought after, positioned within the catchment of several well-regarded schools and within easy walking distance of Brighton beach and city centre. The South Downs National Park lies just beyond the city, offering expansive open countryside, while the nearby Open Market, London Road and Preston Circus provide an excellent selection of independent restaurants, cafés and amenities.

The Brighton Lanes, seafront and cultural attractions are all close at hand, as are local institutions such as the Duke of York’s Picturehouse and a collection of well-loved pubs and neighbourhood favourites.
