Large period home near Queens Park—HMO income or family conversion potential..
Victorian period terrace with original plaster detailing and bay windows
Over 1,750 sq ft across four floors, versatile 4–6 bedroom layout
Currently licensed and let as an HMO; investment-ready
West-facing patio garden; reinforced rear wall for stability
Large lower-ground kitchen and separate utility with shower/WC
Small rear plot; no significant front garden or off-street parking
Local area: high crime score and very deprived classification
Close to Queens Park, seafront, Brighton College and city amenities
This substantial Victorian terrace offers over 1,750 sq ft across four levels, currently configured and licensed as an HMO but easily converted back to a comfortable 4–6 bedroom family home. High ceilings, bay and sash windows and original plaster detailing give the house strong period character, while a large lower-ground kitchen and a generous dual-aspect reception provide practical modern living space.
The property sits seconds from Queens Park and within easy walking distance of the seafront, Brighton city centre and several well-regarded schools including Brighton College — a clear draw for families. The west-facing patio garden captures afternoon sun; its rear wall has been reinforced to improve long-term stability. Split over basement, ground, first and second floors, the layout suits multi-room occupancy or flexible family planning.
Important practical points: the house is in a cosmopolitan student neighbourhood with a higher-than-average crime score and local area classed as very deprived. It is currently let as an HMO with fixtures and fittings in place; conversion to sole occupancy will require reconfiguration and possible updating of bathrooms for a family layout. The plot is small and there is no prominent front garden.
Overall this is a sizeable period property with strong location credentials and clear potential for either continued HMO investment or a thoughtful family restoration. Buyers should factor in conversion costs, ongoing maintenance and the local neighbourhood profile when assessing suitability.
