About this property
A charming, characterful early 1900s home with four bedrooms set in a sought-after setting backing onto Withdean Park, with elegant interiors and lovely gardens
This impressive, double-fronted family house is situated on a prestigious road in the Preston Park area north of Brighton City Centre, close to a range of good schools, a sports centre and a mainline station at Preston Park. The property has lovely views to the rear over the open space of Withdean Park, access to which is provided by a gate from the rear garden; it’s perfect for dog walking, family time or simply enjoying the many different species of vibrant lilac. The house is wonderfully spacious, offering about 2200 sq ft across two floors, and has plenty of room for family gatherings and visiting guests.
The house was built in approximately 1913 and despite modernisation, there are many fabulous character features throughout, from stained-glass windows to wooden doors and floors, open fireplaces and decorative coving. Added to this is the fabulous open plan living space at the rear, a modern addition from 2016 which incorporates all the mod cons, premium appliances and a mezzanine floor which would make a great home office or snug. The house was redecorated inside and out in 2021 and is in fabulous condition, with elegant interiors brought up to date by a range of features: underfloor heating under solid oak wood floors, bespoke shutters and a contemporary wood-burning stove. The ground floor features two generous formal reception rooms, an open plan kitchen/dining room with mezzanine above, a laundry room and a cloakroom with WC. Upstairs there are three generous double bedrooms including a principal bedroom with en suite shower room, plus a fourth smaller bedroom and a family bathroom. Within the garden there is a detached garden room with shower – great as a guest space or for use as an additional entertaining space in the summer months.
Outside
The house is set back from the leafy, tree-lined avenue behind an attractive front garden, with its striking elevations and well-stocked, colourful borders providing great kerb appeal. There is access to a garage at the front, which is on a lower level to the house and built into the land, supporting a paved terrace above. The rear garden is equally special, featuring a paved terrace leading to the detached garden room and plenty of space for pots and planting. There is a rear gate which provides access to Withdean Park to the rear.
Situation
Surrenden Crescent is a quiet, leafy road situated to the north of Brighton city centre close to Withdean Park, a much-loved open space famous for its lilacs and popular for dog walking and families. The seafront is just 2.5 miles away, including attractions such as the i360, the Palace Pier and the Lanes shopping area, many restaurants and cafes, as well as the pleasant Undercliff Walk which runs along the chalk cliffs of the coast. The area is well connected with fast, direct train services leaving from Brighton station (2.1 miles) to London and Gatwick Airport, with additional services from Preston Park which is under a mile away. Newhaven (11.7 miles) has cross-channel ferries. Local schools are well represented in both the state and independent sector, including Dorothy Stringer Secondary School and Varndean High School and Sixth Form College, Brighton College and Roedean School near the Marina. There are many leisure activities available with walks across the South Downs, a variety of equestrian pursuits, sailing off the south coast and golf across the county.
