Elm Grove is a tree - lined road of predominantly Victorian houses from which
the Elm Grove area takes its name. Incredibly convenient for access to the
city centre, but with its own strong community identity, the area is
enduringly popular and has a quintessentially Brighton feel. On Elm Grove
itself, there are local cafés and shops, including The Flour Pot Bakery which
sells fantastic bread, and serves delicious coffee and pastries. Just a little
further down the hill, is Hilly Laine, an independent health food corner shop.
The North Laine is only twenty minutes away for a wider range of independent
shops and Brighton Station is also within walking distance. Families who want
to be near parks and schools are spoilt for choice. Queen’s Park has a
playground and a café, and The Level has a playground and a skate park. Elm
Grove and St Lukes Primary schools are a short walk away and the house is in
the catchment area for Dorothy Stringer and Varndean secondary schools.
As you enter this attractive Victorian two - bedroom house, you find yourself in
a smart hallway, with stripped original floorboards. To your left is the
living room and ahead you can see the room opens up into the dining area, with
a staircase rising to the first floor, dressed with a herringbone flat - weave
stair runner. Entering the living room, the traditional three - sash bay window
has an outlook to the front and a wood - burning stove has been installed in the
fireplace. The dining room is a wide space, incorporating the staircase and
has double doors onto the pretty garden. In this room there is a more
traditional wooden fireplace surround with cast - iron insert. Off the dining
room, at the rear of the property is an elegant kitchen with sleek white units
and wooden worktops. The integrated appliances keep the look clean and simple,
and include an integrated dishwasher, an integrated washer - dryer, a Neff
double oven and grill and an integrated fridge - freezer. Outside the garden is
south facing. Raised beds in the garden are well stocked with a variety of
plants, including a bay tree, lavender, and many flowering shrubs.
Upstairs the main bedroom runs across the full width of the house with a bay
window and there is a second bedroom with a window over the garden, that is
currently being used as an artist’s studio. Both are comfortable double rooms.
The stunning bathroom has been recently fitted, with a contemporary free
standing bath and a separate shower cubicle with dual shower heads including a
waterfall shower. Brass fittings and under floor heating give an added sense
of luxury.
What the owner says:
“We have been very happy here for nearly seven years and have lovingly
renovated our home throughout. Along with contemporary colourways, we’ve added
modern technological touches, like bathroom underfloor heating and usb ports,
to blend the convenience of modern living with the lovely Victorian period
features. The absolute showpiece of the home is the bathroom: Lounging in that
huge bath at the end of a day is utter luxury. In the summer months, the lush
garden becomes a secluded oasis: With the swifts wheeling overhead, there's no
lovelier place to be. In the winter, the living room with its wood burning
stove transforms into the cosy heart of the home. The location is the ideal
mix of town and country. You benefit from the community buzz and fantastic
pubs of Hanover, with an easy walk to the Laines or the station, yet you’re
only 8 minutes walk to rolling green countryside via the racecourse and
beyond. ”
