5 Bedroom Terraced House For Sale In Brighton

GUIDE PRICE: £1,000,000 - £1,200,000

Set along the iconic, colourful Victorian terraces of Chesham Street, this beautifully presented five-bedroom home blends period elegance with a considered contemporary finish, creating a wonderfully characterful home with a distinctive sense of style.

At the heart of the property lies an impressive through lounge and dining room, where rich aubergine walls create a dramatic backdrop for the original dark timber flooring, ornate cornicing, decorative ceiling roses and charming fireplaces. A generous bay window to the front floods the sitting area with natural light, while the dining space enjoys direct access to the garden through tall French doors, creating an inviting setting for entertaining and everyday family life.

The adjoining kitchen has been finished with underfloor heating and sleek dove-grey cabinetry and crisp white worktops, creating a bright, contemporary space that connects effortlessly with the dining area and garden beyond. This thoughtful arrangement lends itself perfectly to modern indoor-outdoor living and relaxed alfresco dining. From the entrance hall, stairs descend to a spacious cellar, offering valuable additional storage with plenty of potential for those looking to house a wine collection.

The first floor accommodates two of the five bedrooms, both finished to an excellent standard. To the front, a generous bay-fronted room is currently arranged as a second sitting room, although it could equally serve as a substantial double bedroom. Completing this floor is a beautifully styled bathroom, where rainforest mural wallpaper by Woodchip & Magnolia creates a striking focal point against deep green floor and wall tiles and antique rose décor. A separate shower, freestanding bath and original fireplace combine to create a space that feels both indulgent and inviting.

The second floor provides two further bedrooms, reflecting the considered layout of the floor below both at beautifully decorated with sumptuous warming tones. A conveniently positioned utility room on this level makes everyday laundry effortless, particularly for the principal bedroom, which enjoys a peaceful easterly aspect and a welcome sense of retreat.

Occupying the top floor, the fifth and final bedroom offers excellent storage and versatility, making it equally well suited to use as a guest bedroom, home office or private study.

Outside, the west-facing walled patio garden is a particularly appealing feature, offering a wonderfully private and sheltered space that enjoys the afternoon and evening sunshine. Painted yellow walls bring a cheerful warmth to the setting throughout the year, while direct access from both the kitchen and dining area makes it an ideal extension of the living accommodation.

A word from our sellers:

“When we were looking to move to Brighton, we were attracted to Kemptown for its connection to the city but were drawn in by the village feel of the local shops and people. The proximity to the sea is a huge bonus and it just keeps getting better with additions like the Sea Lanes.

The first time we visited the property we just knew it was for us. We had already fallen in love with the wide street and its trees and colourful houses and had viewed two other Chesham Street properties before this one. Its period features, bright rooms, larger garden space and calm feeling just won us over.”

Kemptown is renowned for its distinctive village atmosphere, vibrant independent businesses and exceptional proximity to the sea. Independent cafés, boutiques, restaurants and bars sit alongside the seafront, while Brighton’s famous beach, promenade and waterfront attractions are just moments away. The area also benefits from an excellent choice of educational establishments, making it particularly appealing to families.

Chesham Street is well placed for a range of local schools, including St John the Baptist, St Mark’s CofE and St Luke’s primary schools. Brighton College and its preparatory school are also within reach, alongside Cardinal Newman Catholic School.

Brighton Mainline Station is approximately ten minutes away by taxi, providing direct rail connections to London and Gatwick Airport. Alternatively, the seafront offers a scenic route into the city centre, with its celebrated cultural attractions, independent shops and restaurants.

For those who enjoy the outdoors, a footpath at the end of Chesham Street leads towards Brighton Racecourse and onwards to the open landscapes of the South Downs, offering a wonderful connection to the surrounding countryside.

Combining the architectural charm of a Victorian home with thoughtfully curated interiors, versatile accommodation and a private west-facing garden, this is a distinctive Kemptown residence in a location that perfectly balances coastal living with the character and convenience of city life.
