1 bed Flat For Sale £265,000
Less than 200 yards from Queen's Park with local shops at the end of the tree lined Avenue and the al fresco lifestyle of Kemptown and its beaches a short walk, this big, bright one bedroom apartment is an irresistible, sunny package complete with glorious sea views if you are tall! Radiating charm from the outside, inside it spreads its stylish wings across the whole top floor of a beautiful double fronted Victorian Villa. Totally transformed over the past four years, the apartment is well insulated with double glazing and the spacious living room delivers sophisticated open plan living, the shower room is glamorous and the quiet double bedroom is not directly overlooked. Tucked away in an exclusive spot, this fabulous home close to the hospital, Brighton College and Amex will suit professionals and international investors, and the whole of the city as well as the station serving Portsmouth, Gatwick and London is easy to reach on foot, by bus or by cab.
Queen's Park is a popular area of our fabulous coastal city with a friendly, unpretentious vibe and all the local amenities you need. Tucked away from the crowds of tourists who flock to our famous resort you have easy access to all it offers, but you breathe in the peace when you step through the grand front door of this magnificent Victorian Villa, set back from a quiet tree lined avenue behind front gardens, and into a hallway with beautiful original features. The only apartment at the top of the sweeping staircase it spans the whole of this storey, so you have all the privacy as well as square footage you could dream of.
Inside, the focus of this inviting home is a sun filled living area which stretches from the front to back of this substantial building with windows at each end and ample room to share where guests, in a city favoured by celebrities, can relax as it is not overlooked- and with glorious open views at each end, including a fabulous view over Kemptown to the sea through a Velux in the roof line, you will feel on top of the world! A quiet retreat, it blends classic comfort with a streamlined kitchen, tucked away behind a peninsular island so although sociable it does not dominate the whole space, and it is well designed with practical work surfaces flowing from the contemporary gas hob, electric oven and hood, there is plumbing in place for a washing machine and space for a discreet under counter fridge.
A subtle designer finish continues in the central bathroom where you can shower beneath a choice of shower heads, the hand basin and tiling are right on trend and a sleek radiator which also warms your towels is an inviting touch of luxury.
Next door, the large double bedroom is light and airy with restful views over gardens to Race Hill. A tranquil haven with plenty of floorspace to play with, it is ready for your move with calm decoration and uber thick underlay beneath the deep carpet. A dressing room leads off to the left, which could just as easily be used as a small study space for those working from home, ready to close the door and sign off at the end of the day.

With chic space to entertain, the property has provided a great additional income as a rental."
