Summary - 9 SHAFTESBURY ROAD BRIGHTON BN1 4NE
4 bed 2 bath Terraced
Character-filled four-bedroom home close to station, schools and seafront.
Victorian mid-terrace with high ceilings and bay windows
Set on a quiet Preston Circus street, this Victorian mid-terrace offers a practical family layout in a central Brighton location. High ceilings and bay windows bring character and light to the principal rooms, and the property includes four bedrooms plus an en‑suite, useful for growing families or sharers. A sunny rear garden and pleasant rear views extend the living space outdoors.
The house is compact at about 834 sq ft and will suit buyers seeking a central home rather than large proportions. The internal footprint is modest and the kitchen is small, so there is clear potential for layout improvements or an extension (subject to consents) to better suit contemporary family living. The building dates from 1900–1929 and walls are solid brick with no known insulation, so buyers should consider thermal upgrades and potential ongoing maintenance costs.
Location is a major strength: a short walk to Brighton station, London Road amenities, North Laine and the seafront, plus several highly regarded primary and secondary schools within walking distance. The neighbourhood offers excellent transport links, fast broadband and a strong local community with regular street events. The property is freehold, council tax is moderate and there is no flooding risk recorded.
This house will appeal to families wanting central convenience, buyers seeking a period property to update, or professionals looking for easy access to city amenities. It presents immediate liveability with scope to invest in energy efficiency and modernisation to unlock greater comfort and value.
