A magnificent, beautifully proportioned, semi-detached Victorian Villa located in a highly sought-after residential enclave. Arranged over three storeys offering over 1,300 sqft of exquisitely presented living space in a contemporary style sympathetic to the property's period, circa 1872.

KNIGHT & KNOXLEY are proud to present this fine example of a substantial Victorian house with four generous double bedrooms, located on Clyde Road in the popular Preston Circus district of Brighton. Being semi-detached the house has a larger footprint than other similar houses in the road and has the added benefit of a huge loft space suitable for conversion if required.

The front door opens to a hallway with panelling and an oak floor. A Victorian cast-iron radiator stands to one side, and there are sight lines through to the kitchen. A dual-aspect reception room to the left has a living area arranged around an open fireplace with a wide bay window dressed with shutters in a Kelly Hoppen grey. There is a column radiator, and the floors are oak parquet, which continue through to the dining area where a sash window looks onto the garden. The kitchen has been hand-built with reclaimed wood and has space for freestanding appliances, including a range cooker, a large fridge-freezer, a dishwasher and a washing machine. There is a butler sink under the window, which is a double-glazed sash. The floor is laid with decorative porcelain tiles.

Double doors from the kitchen, lead to the outside, where the delightful walled garden has raised beds, and is paved with salvaged bricks. There is a beautiful magnolia tree, acers and a wisteria. In the side return is a fantastic storage shed and bike store.

On the first floor are two spacious double bedrooms, and a generous bathroom, which has a traditional freestanding bath as well as a walk-in shower with matte-black fittings. The floorboards are painted white and the walls are decorated in sumptuous earthy tones. Outside the window are the branches of the magnolia tree. Adjacent to the main bathroom there is also a further separate WC. The principal bedroom runs across the full width of the house and has a magnificent marble fireplace with a cast-iron insert. Solid painted tier-on-tier shutters in the bay window can be left closed at the bottom while open at the top to show glimpses of the tree outside.

On the top floor are two further excellent double bedrooms, with painted floors, fireplaces and sash windows. The rear bedroom has a handbasin and very open views from the window. The house has a Logic combi boiler, there is a large loft and further storage in understairs cupboards on the ground floor.

Clyde Road is moments from Preston Circus, known by most as home to The Duke of York's Picturehouse, Brighton's much-loved cinema. A short stroll down London Road will bring you to the vibrant Open Market which is home to independent shops, artist's studios and plaza traders, with stalls selling handmade arts and crafts and delicious food. There are great local pubs and restaurants including the Open House, Signalman, The Joker, The Hare and Hounds, The World's End and the Roundhill, all close by, to name but a few! The property is ideally located for commuters, as Brighton Mainline station is a short walk away, with fast services to London Bridge and Victoria, which arrive in London in less than an hour. London Road station, which is even closer, has services to Lewes and beyond. Several bus routes will take you straight into town, including the 5, 5A and 5B. There are excellent schools nearby; Downs Infant and Junior schools are a short walk and the house is also in catchment for the extremely popular Dorothy Stringer and Varndean secondary schools. Two parks are nearby; The Level to the south has a caf?, children's play area and a fantastic skate park. Preston Park to the north has large open spaces, a children's playground, tennis courts, a velodrome and two places to grab a coffee and a bite to eat - the Rotunda Caf? or the Chalet Caf?.
