Why you’ll like it:

Since the early 19th Century, Brighton has been famous for its cosmopolitan vibe, striking architecture and seaside charm. Brunswick Town epitomises everything that is great about the city as it remains one of the most prestigious locations to live almost 200 years later. This sweet and immaculate, one-bedroom apartment in nestled in amongst it all, elevated on the third floor of an attractive Victorian townhouse on Cambridge Road.

While the hubbub of Western Road is just a stone’s throw away, this road remains peaceful, and the building has plenty of kerb appeal with a tall cream façade, adorned with architectural features of the period. The communal ways are well-maintained, and upon entry, an internal staircase rises up into the apartment adding to the feeling of space within. The eye is immediately drawn to the living room, where light streams in through the dormer window and door which opens to the balcony. This becomes an extension of the home during summer where there is space to dine alfresco looking down to the sparkling sea.

Original oak floorboards in the living room are paired with white walls for a smart and neutral base to suit all styles of furnishing and there is ample space for a corner sofa alongside a small dining table and chairs closer to the open plan kitchen. This has been well-designed for the space with built-in cabinetry providing plenty of storage alongside an integrated oven and gas hob, while space has been left for a fridge freezer and a washing machine.

Peacefully positioned to the rear of the building, the bedroom is a fine size double with ample space for a king bed and several pieces of freestanding bedroom furniture. The décor continues from the living room, although this room is carpeted, and the bathroom is easily accessible being en suite.

Fresh in white, the bathroom is also modern with a shower over the bath, a gloss vanity unit below the basin for toiletries and stylish brick wall tiles.
