Summary - Dyke Road, Brighton, East Sussex, BN1 BN1 5BB
4 bed 3 bath Semi-Detached
Elegant family home with large garden and gated multi-car parking.
4 double bedrooms, 3 bathrooms (2 en-suite) plus 2 ground-floor WCs
A spacious Arts & Crafts family home set on a gated plot in Prestonville, offering generous, light-filled rooms and a large landscaped rear garden. The house combines original Edwardian features — high ceilings, stained glass and open fireplaces — with sympathetic contemporary upgrades such as a high-quality kitchen, luxury bathrooms and cast-iron radiators. Practical additions include a home office, useful boot room/utility and power for an electric car charger at the driveway.
Externally the property delivers rare, secure gated parking for several cars and a wide, level lawn that is child- and pet-friendly. The rear terrace with power and water creates easy indoor–outdoor living for summer dining and entertaining, while mature planting provides year-round privacy. The location sits conveniently between Preston Park and Dyke Road Park, with Preston Park station within a 10-minute walk and good road links to the A23/A27.
Important practical points: the house is substantial and has historic construction (circa 1906) with double glazing installed prior to 2002 and cavity walls that are assumed to lack insulation. These period elements mean potential buyers should allow for some energy-efficiency improvements and routine maintenance associated with older homes. Council Tax is Band G and running costs will reflect the size and finish of the property.
This home will suit a family seeking an elegant, established property with outdoor space, parking and excellent local schools — someone happy to enjoy period character while progressively investing in modern energy upgrades and ongoing upkeep.
