Why you'll like it:

Having undergone complete renovation and reconfiguration in 2006, this property is entirely unique from others in the street. It feels spacious and light with an east to westerly aspect and along with many period features, there are bespoke elements which give this home real character. It has been a hugely successful rental property and a holiday let which works perfectly as Preston Park Station is nearby, and the city is easily accessible by car, train or on foot.

Elevated slightly from the street, the homes of Inwood Crescent face east with the morning sun shining on their decorative facades. They are hugely attractive properties, and this stylish two-bedroom apartment is formed from the entire ground floor of one. This means it benefits from sole use of the front garden which has potential to become a seating area as it is raised above the street level which gives it privacy.

From the communal hallway, you step into the flat which opens up to the main reception room to the right and to the master bedroom which sits to the front of the property. Original wood flooring has been sanded and varnished, flowing through the principal rooms for continuity, and the walls are fresh in white to complement.

A generous double room, the master has been cleverly designed to include plenty of storage for clothes and other items in two wardrobes, upper cupboards running the length of the room above the fireplace, and within a solid oak window seat which fits into the bay window. Planting in the front garden and the property's elevation above street level ensures it feels perfectly private as a bedroom, and a lovely light filters in during the morning as the bay faces east. Even with a double bed and a work desk, the floor space is not compromised, and the fireplace is open, adding warmth and atmosphere to wintery evenings.
Sitting centrally in the building, the living room is airy with clearly defined areas for formal dining and relaxation. It receives plenty of natural light from the rear due to skylights in the kitchen, and LED spotlights can be dimmed or brightened depending on need. A wall of bespoke cupboards offers a vast amount of storage for household items, tools, coats and shoes etc, so the flat remains clutter free, and the kitchen is easily accessible down a few steps.

Galley in style, the kitchen has been well designed for the space to include space and plumbing for a washing machine and a slimline dishwasher, plus space for a cooker and fridge freezer – all of which can stay. There is plenty of scope to modernise in here which would add value, but it is in fine fettle as it stands, so you can move straight in with ease. The tumble dryer and an extra freezer can be found in the outdoor cupboard from the rear patio. You can access the patio from both the kitchen and bedroom two where there is space to sit out with a drink or dinner during the warmer seasons. The neighbours' gardens have been well-maintained, so they form a lovely backdrop to the space which is bordered by the original walls and has plenty of room for growing potted plants in the afternoon sunshine.

Returning inside, a step up from the living room leads to a short corridor where the bathroom is next on the right. This has a modern white bath suite surrounded by large scale brick tiles in turquoise and a bespoke bottle wall – as seen in the Earthship eco building at Stanmer Park. This brings in borrowed light through coloured glass disks and is a sustainable building material which adds to the eco credentials of the flat.

Bedroom two is peacefully positioned at the rear of the flat with access to the garden via a glazed Pultec door (alternative to upcv) which allows for a lovely viewpoint from the bed into the garden. This is a single room which would work equally well as a tranquil home office or for a child of any age, and would fit a small double bed if need be.

Agent's thoughts:

Ready to move straight into or let out immediately with ease, this cool apartment will appeal to many, so we do not expect it to sit on the market for long.

Owner's secret:

'We did a full eco refit back in 2006 which has stood the test of time and has ensured this has been a fantastic rental investment for us over the years. We have lived here too as a family which worked really well as the local schools are amazing and you can be at the beach or on the South Downs in equal time.'
