Why you’ll like it:
Set within walled grounds, Sillwood Place is a private road flanked by mature trees and pretty floral verges making it attractive on the approach. This exceptional two-bedroom apartment is found within Sillwood Mansions which sit mid-terrace on the eastern side. These striking buildings are Grade II listed and were built in 1828-1829 having been designed by eminent 19th Century Architect, Amon Henry Wilds. They bear the architectural detailing of the period with Corinthian columns and beautiful plasterwork details which have been attracting people to live in the city for over 200-years. While many of these homes have been converted into separate dwellings, they continue to command an air of grandeur and this apartment is no exception.

It is formed within the rear top floor of a substantial mansion house which is set back from a private road behind a generous forecourt. A wide path leads to the grand entrance below a domed portico entrance, and once inside the well-maintained communal hallways, the scale and beauty of the building become apparent.
Upon entry, it is immediately clear this apartment has been renovated by those with a keen eye for interiors, but also a respect for the exquisite character of the building. It is abundant with period details – particularly within the decorative leaded windows, and the original picture rails, deep skirtings and ceiling panels have been retained throughout. These have been blended beautifully with a stylish palette, so the overall scheme is exceptional.

Ceilings soar in the wide and welcoming entrance hall where soft fawn carpets are paired with mocha walls with the woodwork features picked out in white. From here, there are two generous double bedrooms with ample space for large pieces of freestanding bedroom furniture alongside king size beds without compromising on floor space. Tall sash windows frame views over the local historic landscape below big opens skies so you can star gaze as you drift off to sleep.

Conveniently opposite, the bathroom has a modern take on a period style with metro brick wall tiles and open timber shelving, while the suite is modern with a shower over the bath.
Spanning the far end of the apartment is the dual aspect living and dining room which also enjoys far-reaching private views while being filled with natural light. There is ample space for entertaining, relaxation and formal dining in here, and the kitchen is easily accessible along the hall. Modern white cabinetry offers plenty of storage while the oven and gas hob are integrated, leaving space for a washing machine, fridge, freezer and a dishwasher, plus there is space for a kitchen table for informal dining occasions.

Agent’s thoughts:
If you’re looking to live the quintessential Brighton & Hove lifestyle by the sea; living in the city’s cultural and historic centre with every amenity you could wish for nearby – this generous apartment is ideal.
