Description

Situated in a sought-after area of Brighton, this Victorian terraced house boasts three bedrooms and offers a remarkable canvas for those looking to invest in a property with significant renovation potential. Spread over approximately 992 sq. ft., the home is liveable but requires cosmetic improvements to truly shine, making it an ideal choice for buyers eager to imprint their personal style and enhance value over time. The well-structured layout provides practical living spaces that can be adapted according to modern requirements, with particular opportunity for reconfiguration or extension (subject to necessary permissions) as the property has yet to undergo any loft or side return modifications. Local amenities, schools, and parks are conveniently nearby, making it a favorable location for families and professionals alike. The living room welcomes ample natural light through its bay window, while the separate dining room presents flexibility for various uses. At the rear, the kitchen leads directly to the garden and holds potential for redesigning into an expansive kitchen/diner or even an open-plan layout. Upstairs features two spacious double bedrooms and a single room suitable for multiple uses such as an office or nursery. A family bathroom along with a separate WC adds practicality. Outside, the garden offers space for landscaping improvements that could transform it into an inviting outdoor retreat. With no existing loft conversion, there remains an excellent opportunity for upward expansion (STNC), allowing future owners to tailor the house further to their needs. This solid Victorian property not only promises comfort but also represents a great chance to create a unique family home in a vibrant community, all while being just minutes from Brighton’s lively city life and transportation links.
