Auckland Drive | Brighton | East Sussex

Seller Insight "We've lived here since 1997 and we love the sense of community and have really enjoyed establishing good relationships with our neighbours. We enjoy being in close proximity to the town centre yet also being in such a peaceful location.

We've refurbished this house using the highest spec materials possible in order to futureproof it and enjoy living in it without any concerns. It's so robustly built and we've added our own flavour to the interior to match our own needs.

The lounge is our favourite place to spend time, there's so much natural light in there and the unique, custom-made, designer staircase is an homage to our roots in Greece.

For us it's the perfect house and we'll miss the standards that we've achieved here, which never fails to impress our visitors."
