Studio Flat For Sale £140,000
Eaton Place, Brighton BN2

**Investment Opportunity**

An ideal first step on the ladder, holiday home or investment, this stylish studio has the cosmopolitan feel that is particular to bohemian Kemptown. In a beautiful bow fronted Regency house in a Grade II listed terrace which steps down to the seafront it offers sophisticated city living just 77 yards from the beach and will appeal to professionals and commuters as the County Hospital and Amex are a stroll and the station serving Gatwick and London is easy to reach.

With local shops and relaxed café culture around the corner, there is a holiday feeling every time you step out of the door and see the sea! This classic Regency building has a lovely curved front, delicate balcony and wrought iron railings and the smart royal blue front door, with delicately etched glass, is secured by answer phone. Inside, the communal hallway is clearly cared for with a high ceiling and original detailed cornicing and finials.

The entrance to this studio apartment is on the second half landing, and opens to a light and airy passageway which sets the contemporary tone of this studio with clean lines. The ceiling is nice and high which, with the pale limed ash effect flooring and neutral decoration, gives a real feeling of space. At 3.63m x 2.76m the main part of the room is a comfortable size and the west facing window looks over neighbouring gardens, so you will not feel hemmed in.

The chic kitchen are is tucked neatly away at the other end of the room. The streamlined cream units reflect lots of light back into the room as do the high gloss metropolitan style tiles. The work top is a stylish granite effect and a white electric hob looks good with it. Ready for use, there is also an electric oven beneath it and a steel extractor above keeps everything fragrant. The steel sink is an unusual circle within a square, and has a pretty swan like tap and there is space under the counter for a fridge.

Surprisingly luxurious, the wet room has an opaque glass door leading to a shower room with a stone floor. A south window brings in plenty of natural light, there is a heated rail for towels and the Triton T80 shower ensures that water pressure is not an issue.

Agent says:

There is no lift in the building, which helps to keep maintenance charges minimal, and the climb is short, giving peace and privacy.
