Stone Street, Brighton, East Sussex, BN1

Listed 24 Sept 2026 · Brighton
Guide price £425,000 - £450,000. There is something particularly appealing about a home that gives you the space to decide what comes next, and this substantial detached house on Cowley Drive offers exactly that. Sitting on a generous wrap-around plot and extending to approximately 1,240 sq ft, the house has already been enlarged to create a wonderfully spacious single-storey home. It is perfectly liveable as it stands, while offering plenty of opportunity for a new owner to update the interiors and create something entirely their own. The accommodation is arranged around a central hallway, with three genuinely well-proportioned double bedrooms giving the layout plenty of flexibility. There is a separate living room overlooking the garden, while the generous kitchen has space for everyday dining and the potential to become a lovely sociable heart to the home. Outside is where this property really comes into its own. Mature gardens wrap around the house, creating an unusually generous amount of outdoor space with established lawns, planting and different areas to enjoy throughout the day. A private driveway provides off-road parking and leads to the attached garage, which also offers useful storage and includes an inspection pit. The detached footprint and size of the plot may also appeal to anyone considering further reconfiguration or extension, subject to the necessary permissions. This is a home with good proportions, plenty of outside space and the freedom to evolve over time - all within easy reach of Brighton, the coast and the South Downs. Additional Property Information Property type: Detached house Tenure: Freehold Parking: Private driveway and garage Outside space: Mature wrap-around gardens Council tax band: D EPC Rating: F Chain: Chain free The Area Woodingdean offers a quieter, more spacious side of Brighton life, surrounded by open countryside while keeping the city and coast within easy reach. Cowley Drive sits within an established residential neighbourhood, with local shops, schools and everyday amenities close by. The South Downs are one of the area's biggest draws, with miles of walking, running and cycling routes almost on the doorstep. Head towards the coast and Rottingdean is also within easy reach, with its historic village centre, independent cafés, pubs and shops alongside the beach. Brighton Marina, Kemp Town and central Brighton are all straightforward to reach, giving you the best of both worlds: a more relaxed residential setting without feeling disconnected from the city. Transport Links Woodingdean is well connected by road and public transport, with direct bus routes into central Brighton; the existing particulars note journeys of around 20 minutes, although timings will vary with traffic. By car, there is easy access towards Brighton Marina, Kemp Town and the city centre, as well as east towards Rottingdean, Saltdean and the coast. Connections towards the A27 provide routes across Sussex and onwards to the A23 for Gatwick and London.
