3 bed terraced house for sale

Bennett Road, Brighton BN2

Guide Price £550,000 to £575,000

Nestled within one of Kemp Town’s most attractive tree lined residential roads, this charming and beautifully presented period home combines character, warmth and practical family living with an enviable sense of community.

Bennett Road is a particularly special setting, with residents taking great pride in the appearance of the street. During the warmer months, colourful hanging baskets adorn the trees, while neighbours work together to maintain the attractive planting and pavements, creating a welcoming and friendly environment that is increasingly rare to find.

The property itself offers well proportioned accommodation arranged over three floors. A welcoming entrance hall leads into a spacious and sociable open-plan living and dining room, creating a wonderful central hub for family life and entertaining. The sitting area has a cosy feel and is centred around a charming wood-burning stove, while the dining space flows naturally through to the bespoke fitted kitchen.

The kitchen has been thoughtfully designed with freshly painted cabinetry, good storage and practical work surfaces, while doors open directly onto the garden, making it particularly easy to enjoy indoor/outdoor living during the summer months. The property also benefits from a new boiler.

The west-facing rear garden is a real highlight. Enclosed by attractive original brick walls, this private courtyard-style space enjoys a good level of sunshine and offers a blank canvas for the new owners to create their own outdoor retreat, whether that be for entertaining, alfresco dining, planting or simply enjoying a quiet evening outside.

A family bathroom completes the ground floor accommodation.

On the first floor are two generous double bedrooms. The principal bedroom spans the full width of the house and benefits from built-in wardrobes, while the second double bedroom overlooks the rear. The top floor provides a delightful third bedroom, with an exposed chimney breast and Velux window adding character and plenty of natural light.

There is also excellent potential to improve and extend the property, subject to the necessary planning and building regulations consents. The layout could potentially be reconfigured to suit modern family life, including relocating the bathroom upstairs and making further use of the existing space.

The location is superb. Kemp Town seafront and Brighton Marina are both approximately a five-minute stroll away, putting the coast, independent cafés (Marmalade, Reading Rooms, the new developments on the seafront Sea Lanes), restaurants, bars and local shops within easy reach. Queen’s Park is also nearby, providing a fantastic open green space for dog walking, picnics and sporting activities.

Offering a rare combination of period charm, generous accommodation, a sunny garden and future potential, this is a wonderful opportunity to acquire a characterful family home in one of Kemp Town’s most desirable and community-focused residential settings.
