This chain-free Victorian mid-terrace offers generous living across multiple levels with five bedrooms and four bathrooms. The lower ground floor features a large open-plan kitchen/dining/living area and bathroom; the ground floor currently provides two bedrooms and a shower room (can be used as reception rooms). Period features and stripped wooden floors create character throughout the house’s approximately 1,945 sq ft of accommodation.
Previously operated as a high-end short-term rental, the layout suits investors seeking holiday-let income or owners wanting flexible family space near Brighton city centre and the seafront. The house sits close to Western Road amenities and public transport links, with Brighton Mainline Station within easy reach.
Buyers should note a number of practical considerations: the building is solid brick with assumed no wall insulation, double glazing was fitted before 2002, and the property will likely benefit from updating and insulation improvements to meet modern efficiency expectations. The area is classified as deprived with very high local crime rates, which may affect lettings or resale strategy.
Overall, this property presents strong income or owner-occupier potential because of its size, location and chain-free status, but it requires targeted investment to improve energy performance and to reflect local market risks.
