Never far from fresh coffee or a croissant with a choice of parks including the open air theatre, café and tennis courts of Dyke Road Park within a 15 minute radius and the city centre 5 minutes by cab, it is easy to see why this secret enclave of period terraces between the sea and the Downs has lasting appeal.

Why you’ll like it:
Known for its quiet convenience, this is a central point in the city where you can reach Preston Park, Brighton Station and adjacent North Laine or the vibrant shopping of Western Road and Hove within minutes on foot or by bus.

Picture perfect, this impressive Victorian house with stately bays and grand architectural detail is tucked away on a well- kept road and inside, a clean and tidy hallway is shared by only one other home.

Through the front door to this apartment, a wide staircase sweeps up to an airy landing where the sunny kitchen offers a stylish welcome with a beautiful, original fireplace as well as plenty of storage for the shopping.
Expert planning has user-friendly surfaces and everything is to hand from the touch induction hob and oven beneath a hood, there is plumbing for a washer/drier and designated space for an undercounter fridge and freezer – which could stay, subject to circumstance.
Next door, the spacious bathroom has a Victorian influence – but there is nothing old fashioned about its designer finish! Ready to refresh and restore you to your former glory, there is a Triton shower above the claw footed tub, which also has a shower attachment, and touches of discreet indulgence include the sleek vanity unit beneath the hand basin and a warming rail for towels.
Up on the first floor, with the wow factor only a skilled blend of historic proportion and artistic eye can deliver, lofty dimensions, heritage colours and natural wood shelving combine to create a living/dining room of timeless beauty in which to enjoy life opening up again.
A deep, broad bay and statuesque sash window almost fill the east wall to bring in the Sussex sunshine, and elegant features include delicate coving high above your head and a handsome fireplace.
Next door, the guest bedroom is a generous double with garden views and gleaming parquet flooring. Quiet and comfortable. It has plenty of character of its own with built in wardrobes on each side of the pretty fireplace. At the top of a vaulted staircase, the private principal room stretches from east to west with Velux in each roofline so you can dream beneath the stars.
Deep under eaves provide storage, although there is plenty of floorspace available even with a large bed in situ, and we are told that when the conversion was done by the previous owners the plans provided an area for a roof terrace if you wanted to explore that option, STC.

Agent says:
“Big and bright, this stylish apartment is a great buy as a home or investment as every part of our coastal city of Brighton and Hove with its major employers, open green spaces, restaurants and shops is easy to reach, and you can walk to Brighton Station for swift access to Gatwick or London.”

Owner’s secret:
“The location drew us here as all Brighton’s hotspots are within walking distance. The beach, Laines, train station, city centre, Hove, and multiple parks are all within 15 minutes walk. We also love 7 Dials which is on our doorstep as it has its own neighbourhood vibe with lots of great pubs, bars, restaurants, cafes, bakeries, coffee houses and independent shops to chose from. We also love that we have Local bus routes connecting us to great places such as the Marina and the heart of the Southdown’s at the end of our road. The neighbourhood is also a great place to meet people easily and has venues hosting arts events during our famous festivals.

We fell in love with the apartment as soon as we first saw it, it’s always light and inviting to return to and the different levels make it feel even more spacious than it already is. We love how big and homely the living space is and the views out the bay windows over the gorgeous Victorian street. Friend’s love to meet here because of all of this plus its in such a great and convenient location.”
