About this home

Guide Price £500,000 - £550,000 A well-presented four bedroom semi-detached 1930s family home, tastefully updated and improved throughout and offering generous accommodation arranged across three floors, together with a sizeable south / west-facing rear garden, off-road parking and a useful external studio. The ground floor is centred around an impressive kitchen / dining room, providing an excellent space for both everyday family life and entertaining. The kitchen offers ample storage and preparation space, while the generous dining area enjoys direct access to the rear garden through French doors, creating a seamless connection between the indoor / outdoor spaces. To the front, a separate bay-fronted living room provides a comfortable reception area that is centred around an attractive feature fireplace. The first floor comprises two well-proportioned bedrooms serviced by a fully-tiled family bathroom featuring a freestanding bathtub - an area remains on the landing ideal for a home office setup. Stairs continue to the second floor where two further bedrooms are positioned alongside a separate shower room, creating a practical layout particularly well suited to growing families, guests or those requiring dedicated home-working space. Outside, the south / west-facing rear garden is a particular highlight. Arranged over three generous tiers, it provides a variety of areas for relaxing, entertaining and enjoying the afternoon and evening sun. A further benefit is the substantial external studio, which currently provides excellent storage but also offers clear potential to be formalised into a dedicated home office, gym, hobby room or workspace, subject to any necessary consents or improvements. At the front, off-road parking is available for two vehicles, with the added convenience of an EV charging point already in situ. Combining generous accommodation, flexible living space and excellent outside areas, this is an attractive family home that has been thoughtfully improved while retaining the character and proportions associated with its 1930s origins. Location: Coldean is a popular residential area on the northern edge of Brighton, particularly well suited to families and those looking for a quieter setting while retaining convenient access to the city. Set within the Coldean valley and surrounded by fields, chalk downland and woodland, the area has a noticeably greener feel than many parts of Brighton, with numerous opportunities for walking and outdoor recreation. There is excellent access to surrounding green spaces, including Wild Park Local Nature Reserve and nearby Stanmer Park Nature Reserve, providing extensive woodland and downland walks with routes leading towards the South Downs. Coldean itself also features areas of chalk grassland, woodland and informal green space, giving the neighbourhood an attractive semi-rural character despite its proximity to central Brighton. Families are well catered for, with Coldean Primary School located within the neighbourhood, while a range of secondary schools and further education facilities can be found across the wider Brighton and Falmer area. Everyday amenities are conveniently available within Coldean itself, including local shops, cafés, a pharmacy, doctor’s surgery, library and Post Office, with larger supermarkets and a broader selection of shopping available along Lewes Road and in nearby Hollingbury. Transport links are also particularly convenient, with regular bus services connecting Coldean with Brighton city centre, the universities and Falmer, while Falmer railway station provides connections towards Brighton, Lewes and beyond. The nearby A27 also offers straightforward road access towards the wider Sussex area.
