Why you’ll like it:
Bay fronted, this stately building on a one way street with permit parking leading to the sea has an impressive frontage and its grand entrance, secured by answer phone, opens to a tidy communal hallway.

Inside the apartment, at the front, sunshine streams through a reception of classic proportion where a broad bay and stately sash window almost fill the west wall, whilst the oak flooring and spotlights overhead bring a sophisticated finish to a room ideal for contemporary entertaining where the generous bay has space for a dining table to make the most of the oblique sea view. Tucked away in its own space, the streamlined kitchen is sociable but does not dominate the whole room and the vendor is willing to discuss the freestanding appliances.
Past a central bathroom with a practical finish and a shower above the bath, the quiet double bedroom is calm and comfortable, and its easy to forget in this restful retreat that you are just a short walk from the historic heart of this thriving coastal resort.

Agent says:
“You can enjoy the famous Brighton lifestyle to the full from this exclusive location which is far quieter than its central position may suggest. Ideal as a home, if you are looking for an investment it is a sensible one near major employers and university buildings, so a car wouldn’t be necessary, and there is also an opportunity to purchase all of the apartments in the building.”
