A beautiful Victorian residence in a highly sought-after residential enclave with a fabulous south-facing garden. Period features remain throughout mixed with contemporary tones.
This beautiful family home comprises of three double bedrooms and two separate reception rooms and is located at the southern end of Ditchling Rise. The loft has been converted to provide a third bedroom, which has also allowed for the creation of a good-sized bathroom on the first floor. The south-facing walled garden has two beautiful mature olive trees and is an oasis in the summer months.
The front door opens to a hallway with stairs rising to the first floor and the reception rooms to your left. The original floorboards have been exposed and these continue through to both the living room and dining room. At the front of the house is the spacious living room with high ceilings and a bay window with three sashes, dressed with white, louvred, caf?-style shutters. The dining room looks out onto the olive trees in the garden. At the rear of the property is a modern kitchen with solid wood worktops and an attractive solid wood floor. There is a Neff gas hob and an electric fan oven, space for a dishwasher, washing machine and fridge freezer. A white ceramic sink is set under the window. A door from the kitchen leads to the garden which has been landscaped with flagstones and which of course benefits from its south-facing aspect, making it a pleasure to be in, from dawn to dusk, in the summer months.
Upstairs on the first floor, the main bedroom runs across the full width of the house at the front, with a large bay window, dressed as the living room windows, with the same white shutters. There is a good-sized second bedroom next door and a large bathroom at the rear, with a white suite and a shower over the bath. On the top floor, there is another double bedroom which has been created in the loft space, with three rooflights, and some invaluable storage space into the eaves.
Ditchling Rise is a residential road of Victorian properties just north of Preston Circus and south of Preston Park. Downs Infant and Junior schools are just around the corner and the house is also in the catchment area for Dorothy Stringer and Varndean secondary schools. Moments away, the St Augustine's Arts and Events Centre has yoga classes, art exhibitions and its own caf?. On Sunday's visit the Florence Road market. Preston Park, 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?. The Duke of York's Picturehouse, Brighton's much-loved independent cinema, is also moments away at Preston Circus, screening a huge variety of films throughout the week. 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, delicious food and much more. There are great local pubs and restaurants including the Open House, Signalman, Jolly Brewer, Preston Park Tavern and the Roundhill, all close by, to name but a few! The Roundhill is notable as it has an entirely vegan kitchen, serving award-winning plant-based meals. The property is ideally located for commuters, as Brighton Mainline station is a short walk away with direct services to London Bridge and Victoria, which arrive in London in less than an hour. Even closer is London Road station with services to Lewes and beyond. Several bus routes run close by including the 5, 5A and 5B which will take you straight into town.
