Tucked away on a picturesque city centre street stands the historic Grade II listed building Shelleys, built in 1821 for William Shelley, who was the beadle of St Nicholas Church which sits opposite the house. Entirely unique within the area, it is double fronted with decorative brickwork and is the only property remaining in Mount Zion Place.
Sitting on a corner plot at the brow of the hill, it enjoys and open aspect to the front which fills it with natural light from the southeast. Internally it bears many original period features from the Georgian era which have been blended with modern interior design and some bespoke fixtures and fittings to create a homely space ideal for families and professionals alike.
With three/four double bedrooms and a large open plan living space, there is room to spread your wings, work from home or entertain in style which can spill outside to the quaint, walled city garden.
Brighton Station, Brighton Beach and the city centre shops, theatres and amenities are just a few minutes away on foot, as are several highly acclaimed schools, so this historic home will have broad appeal.

Holding a prime location in the city, close to Brighton Station, the North Laine Shopping District and the beach, this three-bedroom house sits in the historic heart of Brighton, looking out over the 14th century Church of St Nicholas to the south, surrounded by mature trees. Set back from the road behind a pretty front garden and border walls, it feels more like a country cottage than a city centre home. Steeped in history, it would have been the only residential property here during the early 19th century, yet now it forms the end of a smart terrace adjoining Church Street.
With a handsome double fronted façade in decorative brick and a portico entrance, it has plenty of kerb appeal. Patterned tiles welcome you in through the zesty yellow front door to the entrance hall where parquet flooring flows into the main reception room to the right. Forming a large L-shape, with beamed ceiling and wall panelling, this is an incredible space with zoned areas for formal dining and relaxed seating by the wood burning stove. An original brick hearth with open fire has been retained in the kitchen, bringing warmth and atmosphere to wintery evenings, where there is ample space for dinner parties or family time around the table. The kitchen cabinetry itself is contemporary, offering plenty of storage solutions alongside integrated appliances which will stay. Pops of block colour add interest alongside some tiled wall features and wood panelling in muted, heritage tones.
Two large window frames views over the leafy front garden while windows and French doors to the rear open to a courtyard patio. This is ideal for dining alfresco in complete privacy, while an arch links through to the main walled garden where well-established plants and trees bring colour, fragrance and dappled shade to the lawn and larger patio. Once again, you are barely overlooked and facing west, it receives the last of the summer sunshine. It is a quintessential English country garden, set in the middle of the city, giving you the best of both worlds.
Returning inside, there is a second sitting room on the ground floor which could have a plethora of uses, from a study to a fourth bedroom depending on need. Like the main living areas, it has parquet flooring and wall panelling alongside modern storage fittings.
Stairs rise to the first-floor landing where three double bedrooms and two bathrooms reside. The bedrooms are carpeted, with two boasting beautiful feature walls, while the principal bedroom benefits from a wall of built-in wardrobes to maximise the floor space. Stepping down to the en suite bathroom, a gleaming white bath suite sits alongside a separate shower and dual sinks are ideal for couples getting ready together in the morning.
Bedrooms two and three share use of the main bathroom tiled in marble and grey with a shower attachment over the bath.<br /><br />This impressive and characterful house is situated in a popular area with lots of local shops and the beach nearby. The city centre shopping districts and parks are also within easy reach, and this home also offers easy access to Brighton Mainline Station which has direct and fast links to the universities, airports and London.
