Situated in one of Brighton’s most desirable streets, Alicia House was built in the 1880s and forms part of the Sackville Gardens Conservation Area, notable for a variety of preserved and elegantly presented architecture, including the generously proportioned Victorian stucco-fronted residences seen on Westbourne Villas. The property is supremely light and spacious, with its accommodation arranged over three well-proportioned floors. Sash windows and soaring ceilings – characteristic of the era – contribute to the feeling of space, creating an ideal family home. The setting is highly desirable, being moments from the beach and Hove Lawns in one of the area’s most sought-after addresses, with a plethora of seaside attractions on the doorstep and views of the coast from the first-floor bedroom. The property has the added benefit of a side entrance and side return, giving easy access to a paved rear garden, a private oasis in which to enjoy warmer days alfresco, and off-street parking on a private driveway as well as a spacious loft which poses potential for conversion, subject to permissions. <br/> <br/>Inviting and well-proportioned, the ground floor makes a striking first impression, entered via an elegant, half-glazed stained-glass door. A light-filled hallway provides access to the ground floor accommodation. To the front, the living room is generously proportioned and features a traditional-style marble fireplace, creating a warm and inviting focal point. A separate study offers a practical and versatile space for work or a quiet retreat.
