Summary - 18 PORTLAND STREET BRIGHTON BN1 1RN
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Bright three-bedroom house with private courtyard and excellent transport links.
Chain free freehold property in central North Laine location
Set on the edge of Brighton’s lively North Laine, this three-bedroom mid-terrace offers bright, flexible living across three floors. The open-plan ground floor creates a social living and kitchen area with French doors to a sunny walled courtyard — a private outdoor space rare so close to the station and seafront. The whole-top-floor master bedroom provides a generous principal retreat.
The house is chain free and freehold, appealing for buyers who value quick possession and central convenience. It sits a short walk from Brighton mainline station, shops, bars and restaurants, making it well placed for commuters, professionals and buyers seeking easy access to coastal amenities.
Buyers should note material points plainly: the property is in a very high-crime, very deprived ward, the plot is very small and the building dates from before 1900 with solid brick walls likely without modern cavity insulation. Double glazing was installed before 2002. These factors can affect running costs and future upgrade scope. There is one bathroom only and external appearance shows traditional Victorian terrace details that may need cosmetic attention.
For first-time buyers or investors, the location and layout offer genuine potential — the sizeable top-floor bedroom and open-plan layout suit rental demand or adaptable family use. Prospective purchasers are advised to commission a full survey and obtain service reports to confirm condition and any upgrade requirements before committing.
