Roedean Road Brighton | East Sussex | BN2 6NQ
Roedean Road Designed so that all its rooms are south-facing, this 1920’s built property was one of the first in Roedean and retains its original name. It has been updated to create a spacious, light and welcoming modern home. The property has been designed with easy access including wide doorways for a fluid flow between its well-proportioned rooms making it equally suitable for a young family plus there’s a lift to the first floor. Bespoke douglas fir doors throughout and cherry wood Venetian blinds to every window create a considered geniality complementing the largely neutral decor. Sitting high above the marina, this sizeable home has superb views towards the sea so it’s perfect for relaxed coastal living. Other style features include wood effect UPVC double glazing to blend with wooden window frames, silver hued vertical wall radiators by Radiating Style from Italy and varnished pitch pine flooring on the ground and first floor and neutral carpets elsewhere. Duravit sanitaryware and Starck brassware throughout most bathrooms. To the eastern end of Brighton’s iconic seafront, Roedean sits close to the border of town and country. The eclectic mix of independent cafes and shops of lively Kemp Town village are a short stroll away while footpaths to the open countryside of the South Downs national park start from the golf club just across the road. With local private schools including Roedean School and Brighton College the area is particularly well served for families.
Ground floor At the end of the hallway the kitchen/diner; the bespoke kitchen combines light toned dcwood with a varied mix of open shelving and glazed cupboards, all to standard measurement, with an iridescent sheen to the black and green granite worktop. Integrated appliances include Miele dishwasher, Gaggenau mixed fuel hob and steam oven. Warm and inviting with its rich Fired Earth terracotta floor tiling and cream painted brick walls the kitchen extends into a dining area. Doors then open through to the L-shaped lounge and dining room. The lounge area is made cosy with a huge 12kw wood burning stove in the fireplace and white fitted shelving opposite while rose tinted glass blocks bring in borrowed light from the hallway. There are four sets of double doors along the south wall opening straight out to the long hardwood decked balcony giving easy access to outside and allowing the light to pour in. The fluidity of the kitchen and ground floor space lends itself superbly well for entertaining. Adjacent is a fully travertine tiled bathroom with a sumptuous stand-alone bath adjacent to the double doors onto the balcony while twin oval wash hand basins are inset into taupe corian and
separate glass panelled shower enclosure. The bathroom then connects through to a double bedroom with a large side bay window. This room then opens out to the hallway where there is in turn a cloakroom, under stairs cupboard, lift to the first floor and a utility room with extensive storage and space for washing machine and dryer just by the kitchen. Lower ground floor An Italian hardwood spiral staircase winds down from the large living area to reveal an expansive room with a grey fully tiled shower room and wooden sauna en-suite. Excavated and underpinned, this additional room has been created with bifold doors leading directly out to the patio for a superb flexible space whether as guest bedroom or for leisure. First floor A huge window lights up the stairway with the master double bedroom sitting at the end of the landing. With French windows opening straight out to the generous full width paved balcony, it’s lined with tinted glass in symmetry to that on the ground floor with an extensive outlook towards the sea. With a wall of marine coloured glass blocks the en-suite wet shower
room is tiled in striking gloss Victorian blue while a small room adjacent to the bedroom acts as a walk-in wardrobe. There are a further two double bedrooms both facing south too with one having an original pale lemon tiled fireplace inset. A traditionally styled family bathroom comes fully tiled in marbled sea green and neutral. Finally on the first floor is the lift access from the ground floor and hatch to loft. Outside The sheltered patio garden is reached by both steps down from either side of the decked balcony on the ground floor as well as directly from the lower ground floor room. Landscaped with paving and reclaimed railway sleepers there’s an area of shrubs and plants with an ample stone built covered koi pond. A stairwell leads directly down to gated access to The Cliff, the road that runs to the south of the property, while access at either side leads around to the front which is paved with Marshall drive sets for off-road parking. Pedestian side gate with intercom and vehicle access by automated Gate-A-Mation sliding gate with a covered car port and CCTV.
