Embracing its heritage, while reimagined for the modern day, be prepared to lose your heart to Wychwood. This spacious, sun-splashed residence resides among beautiful established gardens, sprawls over a vast 889m2 parcel, offers a wealth of space for a family and delivers turnkey access to the beloved Brighton lifestyle.
Accompanied by rich history dating to c. 1915, a picture-perfect façade reveals an interior promoting a warm, welcoming environment for a growing family. Soaring 3.2m ceilings, ribbons of sun, and green outlooks from every corner foster a feeling of calm and airiness, while a pair of fully functioning, marble-encased fireplaces across family and living/dining domains enliven winter nights. French doors and a first-class kitchen flow into a completely private entertainer’s courtyard, brilliant for hosting and unwinding among lush, thriving gardens whilst the children play in the cubby. Hidden away behind a Boston Ivy feature wall with vivid blue shutters reminiscent of a Mediterranean retreat, a solar-heated, salt-chlorinated pool enjoys direct access to a smart second bathroom, while on the block’s northern side, golden and weeping elms, a flame tree, and grand liquidambar offer a delightful backdrop for drinks on a summer evening.
With an open fireplace, walk-in robe, and bay window framing leafy views, a considerable primary bedroom is joined in the home’s northern wing by three additional bedrooms and a luxe central bathroom with twin basins and a bathtub. An oversized garage sits below a sizeable studio with air conditioning; just as ideal for teenagers to escape to as it is professional’s seeking a workspace distinct from the main home. Other highlights include solid Blackbutt floors, brand new 100% wool carpets, ducted heating, refrigerated cooling, concealed study desks, plantation shutters, ornate ceiling roses, grand antique doors, water tanks and an automated watering system, a full-size laundry and first-class Smeg, Miele, and Qasair kitchen appliances.
A celebration of everything that is Brighton, it’s no more than a short stroll to parks, quaint Dendy and Were Street Villages, Middle Brighton Station for quick city commutes, and the shopping, dining, and nightlife of famous Church Street. And, of course, it’s only mere moments to golf courses, elite schools, and the famous bathing boxes and golden sands lining picturesque Brighton Beach.
