168 Church Street, Brighton - James Home Ratings

168 Church Street, Brighton

 

James Home Rating: —619
Inspected: 27/8/25

Biggest issue if you like it will be price negotiation

 

Position

This is Church Street Brighton at its best — right in the hub of shops, cafes, and lifestyle, with everything at your doorstep. The location is sensational: downhill to the shops, uphill on the way back from Half Moon Hotel, but that’s Brighton life.

 

Property

A side-by-side Victorian terrace-style home on 593sqm, renovated in a way that respects its period character.

  • Orientation: South-facing rear, which means some loss of natural light in living areas and upstairs.
  • Accommodation: Multiple bedrooms, renovated bathrooms, with décor sympathetic to the home’s era.
  • Master suite: The ensuite connection is awkward — you go down a couple of stairs and along to access it.
  • Condition: Renovated to a good level; presentation and finishes suit the period feel.
  • Parking: No garage, which is a drawback, though not unusual in terrace stock.

 

Buyer Fit

This is a home for period lovers — buyers who want the authenticity of a terrace home in Brighton, rather than new builds or contemporary design. Suits:

  • Downsizers seeking location and lifestyle over land
  • Couples who want a character-rich home near shops and beach
  • Families happy to trade a garage and north rear for Church Street living

 

Market & Value

  • Quote: Top of the range at $6M
  • Context: A premium ask, but location and period charm will ensure strong interest.
  • Summary: A period Brighton terrace with character, great position, and quirks typical of the style (light, stairs, no garaging). For the right buyer, this is love at first sight.

There are many opinions of value—but three that really matter: yours, the seller’s, and the market’s. And while only one price will ultimately seal the deal, each number carries a different lens—logic, emotion, positioning. To improve your odds of buying well—not overpaying, not missing out—it helps to understand where the market sits. That’s why we provide a market range, not a single figure. This range reflects agent input, your feedback, peer views, and emotional or practical drivers like living near family or renovation upside. Within it, we define a Control Price—usually the midpoint—your value line for judging overs or unders.
