Full Description: KNIGHT & KNOXLEY are delighted to present this superb Victorian terraced house that has been lovingly renovated and decorated by its current owner to an exceptional standard. Located on Lorne Road at Preston Circus, it enjoys a central location perfect for commuters and buyers wanting to be close to everything Brighton city centre has to offer, while also being near the open spaces of Preston Park.The house makes a wonderful first impression, immaculately painted in a pretty pink, with wrought ironwork above the garden wall and a black-and-white tiled pathway leading to the smart white front door. Inside, the hallway is in fresh white, with a dado rail, the original floorboards, and a tall designer radiator. There are also useful storage cupboards under the stairs.The wooden floors continue through to the reception spaces - a living room at the front of the house arranged around the decorative cast iron fireplace, with a three-sash bay window overlooking the street and, at the rear, the dining area, with a further decorative fireplace and a window to the garden.At the back of the property is a good-sized kitchen with space for a table and chairs. Newly fitted, with understated, Shaker-style units in white, finished with a wooden counter, there is a Bosch gas hob, an electric oven, and an integrated Indesit washing machine. The Vaillant Ecotec Pro 30 combination boiler is also housed here.The garden has been designed around a central rectangular pond, with a gorgeous variety of plants both in the flower borders and in the water itself. There is also an attractive new fence with horizontal battens.The staircase to the first floor has a wool runner and the original hardwood balustrade. The main bedroom is across the front of the house, decorated with beautiful wallpaper up to the picture rail, with a cast iron decorative fireplace and wool carpet. The carpet runs throughout the landing and into the second bedroom. This bedroom overlooks gardens, and the chimney breast has been removed to maximise space. Both bedrooms have designer radiators.The bathroom is a generously proportioned room at the rear. A large Velux window brings natural light in from above, in addition to the window overlooking the garden. Currently, there is a walk-in shower with matte black fittings, a handbasin set in a bespoke unit, and a WC. It should be noted that there is already plumbing in place for the addition of a bath.The loft is boarded and insulated, with a light and pull-down ladder. It could be converted, subject to the usual consents. The recent renovations to the property included updated electrics and heating.Lorne Road is moments from Preston Circus, known by most as home to The Duke of York's Picturehouse, Brighton's much-loved cinema. A short stroll down London Road brings you to the vibrant Open Market, which is home to independent shops, artists' studios, and plaza traders, with stalls selling handmade arts and crafts and delicious food. There are great local pubs and restaurants, including the Open House, Signalman, The Joker, The Hare and Hounds, The World's End, and the Roundhill, all close by.The property is ideally located for commuters, as Brighton Mainline station is a short walk away, with fast services to London Bridge and Victoria, with journey times of under an hour. London Road station, even closer, has services to Lewes and beyond. Several bus routes will take you straight into town, including the 5, 5A, and 5B. The extremely popular Downs Infant and Junior schools are a short walk away. Preston Park has large open spaces, a children's playground, tennis courts, a velodrome, and two cafés-the Rotunda Café and the Chalet Café-where you can grab a coffee and a bite to eat.Council Tax Band: CTenure: FreeholdBrochuresBrochure
