19 Bent Street, Brighton

Charming Garden Sanctuary in a Premier Locale

Setting the scene for many special memories for the same family for 34 years, this beautiful c1926 home combines Late Edwardian charm with the appeal of a contemporary entertainer’s lifestyle. Occupying a blue-chip corner block of approximately 626sqm, the home is ideally located to enjoy the best of a coveted Brighton lifestyle.

Privately wrapped in fenced leafy gardens, a shaded porch gives way to interiors that are enhanced by decorative plasterwork, original leadlight and sash windows along with plate rails in the wide and welcoming entrance. To the front, the primary bedrooms all include fitted wardrobes (one retaining the nostalgic kitchen hatch) and include an oversized master with stylishly renovated ensuite boasting floor-to-ceiling tiles, a stone-topped vanity and frameless shower. A separate study is also offered together with a similarly chic main bathroom providing the added luxury of a freestanding bath.

Opening out to the rear, the living areas comprise an expansive formal lounge that can be closed off for peace and privacy, along with a generous entertaining zone flowing into the modern kitchen equipped with Siemens appliances plus an integrated Liebherr fridge/freezer. Hosts will love the practicality and workflow as well as the large island bench for casual catch-ups, while summer entertaining can be taken outdoors to the gorgeous alfresco deck that is shaded from the heat with leafy foliage. Ducted heating, a split system and security are added drawcards together with a laundry with yard access, tandem garage and workshop plus the ease of faux grass lawns and Hunter irrigation taking care of the gardens and front nature strip.

Boasting an enviable location within a walk of both Bay & Church streets, giving access to restaurants, boutique shopping, cinemas and a choice of stations. Firbank and Brighton grammar schools are nearby, as are parklands and recreation, while buses and the highway are also readily accessible.
