This three-bedroom Victorian house on Hartington Road will charm you as soon as you approach. It is set well back from the road, with a long front garden, and is an attractive red and yellow brick property with bay windows on the ground and first floor.

Inside, this house does not disappoint. You enter into a lobby, which provides insulation from the outside and has room for coats and shoes. A further stained glass door leads to the hallway, where there are decorative mouldings and corbels. To your right is a fantastic living/dining room with two magnificent fireplaces and stripped wooden floors. In the living area, the fireplace has a dual-fuel stove. At the back of the house, the kitchen/breakfast room is over six metres in length, with a door to the garden. In front of the windows looking out on the garden, there is a good space for a kitchen table and the kitchen area has a long run of worksurfaces and plenty of cupboards. There is a Bosch gas hob and a Stoves gas oven, space for a washing machine, space for a dishwasher and space for full-height fridge freezer. The garden is a delight, being much larger than many Brighton gardens and full of mature planting with a very useful summer house which is suitable for storage.

Upstairs are three double bedrooms and a bathroom. The main bedroom runs across the full width of the house and has both a three-sash bay window and a further single-sash. All the bedrooms have period fireplaces.

The house has solar panels on the roof which reduce the cost of electricity and provide a small income from electricity sold back to the grid. The house benefits from double glazing and the owner has added insulation below the living room floor. The Vaillant combi boiler is still under warranty and the house has had a fire-safety assessment with East Sussex Fire Service and has smoke and CO alarms.
