Lewes Road has a varied demographic, with young families, self-employed graphic designers, and born and bred Brightonians all settling into their first homes.
Buyers tend to either be first time buyers, or people from close by who want to stay near the centre but need something a bit bigger, but is also attractive to out-of-towners, perfect for up-sizing the home office, or fitting in the family whilst still being able to commute.
The area is also popular with students thanks to its proximity to the Falmer campuses.

Hove is often thought of as Brighton's older sibling. Where Brighton metropolitans go to grow up, without sacrificing the city.More genteel than Brighton, prettier and grander. Still within a stone's throw of the sea, but without so many tourists. It's much easier to find a quiet spot on the beach this far from the pier. Hove Park, just north of the station is a large and family friendly green space that gives a real feeling of being out of the city.And when you want the night-life, Brighton is just a bus ride away. Hove is where you can happily bring up a family but keep your specialist coffee habit.

Many locals have spent the majority of their lives in the area.Popular with Brightonians looking to settle down – without leaving the city completely behind - there's nothing quite like starting the day cresting the hill of Falmer Road, and coming home to vegetables from your own patch.
