Dream home: a £3million six-bedroom home in Brighton on the market

Where from: Roedean Road, Roedean, Brighton

What: In a prime location on the exclusive coast road between Kemptown and Ovingdean, this six bedroom house has enviable and uninterrupted views over Brighton Marina, whilst the rolling South Downs are literally on the doorstep offering the best of coast, town and country.

Inspired by modernism, it was designed by the architect with style and sustainability at every turn, including underfloor heating powered by renewable energy and an eco water cylinder.

Within: Partially clad in blackened Japanese shou sugi ban wood, the house is as impressive on the inside as the impressive facade. The first floor is bright with clean lines, open plan living spaces and huge windows framing the sea and skyscapes to the south.

The renowned Roedean School, Brighton College Prep and Brighton College and the Montessori School are all within walking distance.

Sliding doors at the rear of the house open onto a garden patio, doubling the space to allow for effortless expansion of the kitchen in the summer.

Outside: Behind remote controlled gates is a forecourt with space for three cars with another double garage to the rear.

The garden was architect designed and uses strategic planting to ensure it is private from neighboring houses whilst framing the sea and marina views. There are steps from the terrace to the manicured lawn, which is lined with topiary and flower beds of agapanthus and lavender. Well established trees and shrubs provide mottled shade in summer where you can sit outside and watch the boats coming and going in and out of the marina.
