About this property
A handsome and substantial four-storey Victorian home set within the much-loved West Hill Conservation Area, this elegant terraced house blends beautiful period character with thoughtful modern touches. Offering generous living space, flexible room arrangements and a wonderfully calm atmosphere just moments from the city’s buzz, it’s been a much-loved family home and is now on the market for the first time in eighteen years.
Set across four versatile floors, the property has been shaped for family life, quiet working and effortless entertaining. You enter through the striking green front door into the raised ground floor, where two elegant reception rooms stretch the length of the home. Each is adorned with period detailing, including tall sash windows and a feature fireplace, with a natural division between the rooms that lends itself to both relaxed living and more formal hosting. At the rear, an additional room provides an ideal home office, studio or further sitting area, opening directly onto the south-facing garden through a set of double doors.
The lower ground floor forms the social heart of the home. A spacious, bright and beautifully appointed kitchen flows into a generous reception room that works equally well as a family snug or dining space. In the kitchen, softly painted cabinetry in light lavender tones lines the walls, while a deeper burgundy island sits centrally beneath dark worktops, creating warmth and character. There is ample space for cooking and eating, with room for a family dining table beside the island. Underfloor heating runs throughout, and extensive storage has been thoughtfully built in.
A utility room and cloakroom complete this level, ensuring practicality complements the home’s easy flow. This is likely where most day-to-day living will take place - whether gathering as a family or entertaining friends. A secondary entrance opens onto the front courtyard, while doors from the rear reception lead to the lower garden, with steps rising to the main garden above. Cleverly zoned outdoor spaces provide plenty of choice for relaxing, entertaining or simply following the sun throughout the day.
The first floor offers two bright and spacious bedrooms along with a large family bathroom. The principal bedroom sits at the front with a beautiful bay window, built-in wardrobes and a feature fireplace, while the second bedroom overlooks the garden and includes its own fitted storage and fireplace. The bathroom features a freestanding bath and striking blue geometric flooring that complements the wall colour.
The top floor provides two further bedrooms (one currently used as a second study) and an additional shower room, making it ideal for growing families, visiting guests or creating a private upper-floor retreat. Eaves storage is also accessible via the larger of the two rooms.
This is a wonderfully adaptable home, rich in character and thoughtfully arranged to suit modern life while celebrating the charm of Brighton’s historic hillside homes.
