Bedrooms: 3
A magnificent, beautifully proportioned, semi-detached Victorian Villa located in a highly sought-after residential enclave on Hollingbury Park Avenue, which has its own annual street party and a fantastic local community. Presented in immaculate order throughout and offered for sale chain free.
A superb, yellow and red brick Victorian semi-detached property, with high ceilings and grand proportions not usually found in a three-bedroom house. This is a fine-looking house, as you will appreciate as you approach, and it has the advantage of being positioned next to the leafy grounds of St Matthias Church. There is a pretty, ornate balcony on the first floor of the house at the front, which further adds to the character and charm of the property. The entire house has been recently refurbished.
On the ground floor of the house, a large double-aspect reception room has been created from the original two downstairs rooms. The floorboards are stripped and there are two impressive fireplaces. At the front of the room, a square bay is dressed with white shutters and at the rear there is a sash window overlooking the west-facing garden. At the back of the house is a spacious kitchen breakfast room which, like the rest of the house, is beautifully presented. A black and white chequerboard tiled floor creates a stunning first impression. The shaker-style cabinets are in a soft green with integrated appliances including an Indesit washing machine and a Bosch dishwasher. There is also a gas hob, electric oven and space for a large fridge freezer. Above the counter is a splashback of white metro tiles. At one end of the room is a lovely space for a kitchen table next to the window. A small lobby leads to both a downstairs WC and also to the garden door. Outside there is a good space at the side of the house and then steps up to the garden which has a lawn and flower borders. There is also very useful rear access to the garden. Upstairs are three fantastic double bedrooms. The principal bedroom runs across the full width of the house, making it over five metres wide. There is a window which opens to the small balcony, with wrought iron railings. The family bathroom has a modern white suite with a shower over the bath which has both a waterfall and hand-held shower head. The modern hand basin is set in a contemporary-style vanity unit with storage.
The house is located in a quiet residential tree-lined street and is in a highly sought-after area close to Blaker's Park. The property also benefits from being in the catchment for numerous renowned schools with excellent Ofsted ratings. Brighton beach and the city centre are within easy walking distance as is The South Down National Park. Artist open houses run through the spring months along with summer fairs and street parties in Blaker's Park and surrounding streets. Hollingbury Park Avenue has its own annual street party and a fantastic local community.
Hollingbury Park Avenue is a few moments from Fiveways where there is a superb selection of local independent shops. These include a greengrocer, butcher, Store (a zero-waste shop selling groceries and household goods), a delicatessen, two gift shops and Preloved of Brighton (selling pre-loved fashion). There is also a small Co-op supermarket, the Fiveways pub, various eateries and takeaways and a specialist wine shop. The house is a short walk from the extremely popular Downs Infant and Junior schools and in the catchment area for Dorothy Stringer and Varndean secondary schools, both of which are very highly regarded. On Ditchling Road there is a choice of buses that run regularly into town. London Road station is a fifteen-minute walk, from where Southern services run into Brighton or north towards Lewes.
