4 Bed Terraced House For Sale

This flint faced, four bedroom house with a private west facing patio is perfect for growing families who like to entertain. Homes in this historic terrace do not appear on the market often and sell fast as this friendly area is a great place to be, only a short stroll from Queens Park and within a 10 minute walk of The Royal Pavilion, the County Hospital and the sea. Al fresco cafes, shops and Bistro pubs are on the doorstep and Brighton mainline’s direct trains to Gatwick and London are a 15 minute bus ride or 8 by cab.

Inside, this quiet retreat brims with light and character. With a parquet floor, the spacious living dining room opens to the patio and guests can enjoy a roaring fire in winter. Upstairs all four bedrooms are comfortable doubles, and the bathroom is far bigger than you expect. Tucked away from the crowds with a weekly farmer’s market by the famous Pepper Pot, Queen’s Park is one of the most sought after areas of the city just a few minutes from the picturesque centre and now is the time to buy with substantial improvements taking place on the seafront.


Ideal for families and professionals who like to entertain, this area has plentiful permit parking with no waiting list and bus routes to give independence to older children or those who prefer a greener form of transport, and access is swift from here to the city centre, the sea and to open countryside.

Radiating charm, this is one of only a few homes within the terrace to have retained their flint frontage. Inside, the inviting living dining room has plenty of space with a cheerful east/west orientation and handsome open fireplace. Solid wood parquet is underfoot, there is built in shelving with a workstation and French doors in the far wall open to a west-facing patio.
Next door, past an under-stair cupboard, the streamlined kitchen has a door to the patio. A touch induction hob beneath a hood, a microwave, fan oven, fridge and freezer are integrated for you and storage includes a pull-out larder. At the far end, a cloakroom has power and plumbing for utility machines.

At the top of the stairs, the vaulted bathroom is far larger than you expect with natural light, bathtub, and walk in jet shower with dual heads. Plus hand basin, shaving point and heated towel rail.

The first of the double bedrooms is quietly located at the back whilst the restful principal bedroom spans the full width at the front. Looking over the school it is peaceful and private at night and weekends, and there is a beautiful original fireplace.

Up at the top, two more tranquil bedrooms mirror those below, each with plenty of character of their own which includes a pretty fireplace in the front room which faces east for the morning sunshine.
