Property Description

A fabulous, mid-century (1966), architect-designed (approx.3195 sq. Ft.) south facing house with newly converted, two storey, self-contained annexe. Extensive gardens front and back in an elevated position with a panoramic view of the sea and city. Located in a private close, within the highly sought after Surrenden area of Brighton. Close to Varndean school and sixth form college, Dorothy Stringer school, Balfour infants and junior school. Within walking distance of Fiveways, London Road and Preston Park stations. Three regular bus routes in and out of the city centre and access to the A27/A23.

Offering a versatile layout, the main accommodation is arranged over two floors and comprises two large, interconnecting reception rooms, kitchen/breakfast room, four/six bedrooms, bathroom and shower room. The self-contained annexe is also arranged over two levels and includes a kitchen/dining room, living room, bedroom and bathroom. Both the main house and annexe provide a magnificent view of the city and coastline from a considerable window space ensuring that the entire, spacious property is full of light.

Certain original features have been retained and the galleried staircase leading up from the large hallway is a feature that immediately impresses.

Living in a private close at the top of a long driveway provides a degree of seclusion that is welcome in a property that is so near to the city.
