2 bed terraced house for sale

North Gardens, Brighton BN1

This is a distinctive historic home in the heart of Brighton, combining original period character with a high-quality contemporary renovation and an exceptional collection of features for such a central location, while also sold with no onward chain.

The property has the rare advantage of two private off-street parking spaces directly outside the house, with wiring already in place for a smart EV charging point. The landscaped front garden is separated from the parking by bespoke ironwork and includes built-in seating and a Posh Shed for bikes and garden equipment.

Unusually for an 1826 property, the house achieves an EPC rating of B. Double glazing, solar panels and battery storage combine to keep running costs exceptionally low, with electricity bills in credit through the summer months.

Inside, the ground floor centres around a generous open-plan living and dining space leading into the full-width bespoke kitchen extension. Designed for contemporary living and entertaining, the extension incorporates a striking walk-on glass roof, bringing natural light into the kitchen and creating a dramatic architectural feature that forms the floor of the terrace above.

The kitchen is finished with Hacker German cabinetry, Silestone worktops with integrated sink, Bosch induction hob, integrated Neff fridge freezer and Miele dishwasher. Belgian Emery et Cie patchwork tiling and underfloor heating complete the space.The roof of the extension forms a private west-facing terrace, accessed from both the first-floor landing and the second bedroom, and enjoying afternoon and evening sunshine.

The principal bedroom at the front of the house retains its original hardwood floorboards and features bespoke full-height fitted storage, with French doors opening onto a Juliet balcony finished with matching bespoke ironwork. The second bedroom benefits from built-in storage and direct access onto the roof terrace.

A handcrafted wooden spiral staircase leads to the versatile loft space, which despite restricted head height is currently used as a home office and convenient occasional guest bedroom. Skylights provide natural light and the eaves offer useful additional storage.

The bathroom has been finished with a designer Italian basin and iridescent mosaic tiling. A Worcester combi boiler and washer dryer are housed within the airing cupboard, with bespoke storage and joinery incorporated throughout the property.

The location is exceptional for commuters and city living. Brighton Station is approximately two minutes’ walk away, while the North Laine, Queens Road, Churchill Square, seafront, independent shops and restaurants are all within easy walking distance.

This home offers a particularly rare combination of two private parking spaces, extensive contemporary renovation, architectural kitchen extension, private west-facing outdoor space, principal bedroom Juliet balcony and excellent energy performance, all within moments of Brighton Station.
