About
Located on Bute Street in the popular Baker's Bottom area of Kemptown in Brighton, this impressive Victorian family home enjoys a perfect mix of period character and modern convenience.
The house has been thoughtfully improved by the current owners, who have carefully enhanced the property while retaining its original character.
Arranged over four floors, the accommodation provides well-balanced living and generously proportioned bedroom space, making it ideally suited to modern family life.
The lower ground floor offers a wonderful open-plan kitchen and living room, with open fireplace set within the original chimney breast and oak flooring throughout.
This space flows beautifully via timber French doors, onto the south facing walled garden, which diffuses natural light into the living area all day.
There is a seamless indoor-outdoor feel to your private garden retreat, providing a private and sun-filled setting for outdoor dining and relaxation.
The newly fitted open-plan kitchen, finished with bespoke lighting, new appliances, and a generous sitting and dining area, bring the modern conveniences into the home, and is ideal for both everyday living and entertaining.
The property comprises four bedrooms, giving an array of flexible options to accommodate family life.
The principal bedroom is generously proportioned, while the second bedroom, currently arranged as a home office, is a particularly good-sized double.
The attic room, accessed via a bespoke staircase, benefits from two Velux windows, with excellent natural light and rooftop views across Kemptown, useful eaves storage, and good ceiling height.
The home is served by a newly fitted luxurious family bathroom featuring a freestanding roll-top bath, creating a stylish and relaxing space.
Throughout the property, many original features have been retained, including original internal doors and period door furniture.
The doors have been professionally dipped and stripped, softening the finish and complementing the natural wood tones that run cohesively through the home.
Additional benefits include a modern combination boiler discreetly housed in what would historically have been an external outhouse, along with thoughtfully designed storage throughout the property.
This includes a discreet utility room located off the ground floor hallway, offering space for a washing machine and tumble dryer, integrated storage, and dedicated coat storage, as well as a hand-crafted under-stairs cupboard providing further practical and well-designed usable space.
Further points of note include the lower ground floor having been fully tanked, with a warranty in place, offering excellent peace of mind for future owners.
The bathroom has also been insulated and tanked to the rear wall prior to refurbishment, reflecting the thorough and considered approach taken throughout the renovation.
The current owners have invested not only in the visible finish but also in essential preventative works, ensuring the property is presented as a true turn-key home.
This property would be ideal for buyers seeking a character home with the benefits of modern living, whether as a family residence or a long-term investment.
School catchment areas are excellent, giving options of St Luke's C of E Primary, Queens Park Primary, and Varndean or Dorothy Stringer Secondary options, as well as Varndean or BHASVIC Sixth Form Colleges.
Combining period charm, high-quality improvements, and careful attention to detail throughout, it offers a rare opportunity to acquire a fully refurbished Victorian home in a sought-after Brighton location, ready to move straight into.
