Camden Terrace, Brighton, BN1

Peacefully tucked away on a quiet pedestrian twitten in the heart of historic Brighton, this exceptional four-bedroom house is a hidden gem within the city. Brimming with history, character and charm, this double fronted, three-storey home can be found along the lane, set back behind border walls and a gated garden. Inside, it is deceptively spacious with generous, well-designed rooms filled with natural light via tall sash windows. Much of the space has been modernised for the 21st Century lifestyle, although the décor is nicely neutral so you can move straight in with ease then put your own stamp on the place with furnishings and art. Unique for somewhere so central, this property has a beautiful, west-facing walled garden which almost doubles the entertaining space during the summer.

Brighton Station is quite literally on the doorstep for the London commute, while Brighton Beach and City Centre are a short stroll away, as are the vibrant shops, bars and restaurants of the North Laine. The school catchment is also excellent with high-achieving primary, secondary, sixth forms and nurseries all within walking distance, so this property will attract families, investors and professionals alike, all looking to live in style and comfort by the sea.

Step back in time as you walk along Camden Terrace, lined with picturesque Georgian properties set back from the path behind white walls and pretty border planting. This house is immaculate in white, bearing architectural features of the era and a pilastered front door opening to a welcoming entrance hall where you are greeted by wooden flooring and fresh white walls. Steps lead down to the lower floor bedroom, but the eye is first drawn to the living room and kitchen to the right where your line of sight takes you through its depth to the glorious walled garden beyond.

Streamlined and contemporary, the kitchen has white cabinetry running along one wall, fitted with integrated appliances to include a slimline dishwasher, fridge freezer, oven and induction hob, while the utilities have a room of their own in the ground floor cloakroom. There is space to socialise in the kitchen, alongside a formal dining area and further on, the sitting room has ample space for sumptuous furnishings to relax on in the evening. French doors open to the garden which becomes a seamless extension of the home during warmer weather – and is a unique feature of this city centre home.

Facing west with tall walls, tropical planting and mature trees, the garden is a private haven and is barely overlooked by neighbouring homes. While there are some scented flower beds, it is predominantly laid to stone, so it is low-maintenance, ready for the busy modern lifestyle. It is larger than many courtyard gardens, so you can entertain out here in style during spring and summer.

Stepping down to the lower ground floor, bedroom four is a peaceful double room with built-in wardrobes to maximise the floor space. The nearest bathroom can be found at the top of the stairs alongside the principal bedroom which has built-in cabinetry and is a versatile room which could also be a second reception room or tranquil office depending on need. Upstairs there are two further double bedrooms with peaceful outlooks. Even with king size beds, their floor space is not compromised, and both enjoy access to contemporary en suite shower rooms. All three bathrooms are beautifully appointed with large scale wall and floor tiles in natural stone or marbled porcelain, rainfall showers and heated towel rails.

This desirable property is perfectly situated in a popular area with lots of local shops and the beach on your doorstep. The city centre shopping districts and parks are also within easy reach, and this home also offers easy access to Brighton Station which has direct and fast links to the universities, airports and London.
