6 Bed Detached House For Sale Upper Lewes Road, Brighton, BN2

19 Roedean Crescent is an exceptional detached home on a popular road, with gardens to the front and rear and views over both the English Channel to the south and the rolling hills of the South Downs to the north. This stunning 1930s home is built in the traditional Sussex vernacular with a mix of tile-hung and flint elevations, now beautifully modernised for today with attractive contemporary interiors and fitted with all the desired modern conveniences such as an alarm system, entryphone access and electric gates, a wood-burning stove and a sleek and stylish kitchen with a range of premium appliances. The latter is the highlight of the home: set with a conversion to the rear and offering zoned areas for cooking, dining and relaxing, with glazed doors sliding open to reveal a wide, elevated terrace. The house has been recently renovated and its character features complemented by a wealth of natural materials including oak flooring, doors and beams, stone tiles and plenty of glass which promotes the feeling of light and space throughout.

The accommodation is arranged over three floors and extends to more than 5000 sq ft, making it the perfect home for large growing families and big celebrations: the variety of reception spaces and generous bedrooms make it the ideal home for entertaining. The ground floor has two separate entrances, keeping formal occasions and family time separate if desired.
