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 generous, two-bedroom apartment in nestled in amongst it all, elevated on the second 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, your eye is immediately drawn to the living room, where light streams in through the wide bay window with three tall sashes facing east. Wooden floors have been modernised with a white wash of paint which serves to brighten the room further and there is ample space for sofas and a dining area within the bay. An arm of the kitchen forms a breakfast bar for informal dining occasions, so friends can sit and chat to you as you cook. Open plan to the room, the kitchen offers plenty of storage space to ensure the worktops remain clutter free, and the oven and hob are integrated, leaving space for a tall fridge freezer.
Bedroom two runs alongside the living room, sharing its easterly aspect, so a lovely light filters in to gently wake you in the morning. While it is a slightly smaller double, it has a wall of built-in wardrobes which maximise the floor space, leaving plenty of room for a double bed under the window.

Peacefully positioned to the rear of the building, the master bedroom is carpeted with deep teal walls, bringing warmth and drama to the space. There is another built-in wardrobe, although this houses the boiler too, but there is plenty of space elsewhere from freestanding furnishings.
Easily accessible from both bedrooms, the bathroom is classic in white with sandy wall tiles and a shower over the bath.

While the entire flat is well-presented with many appealing features, there remains some scope for modernisation which would add value in an area such as this.

Agent’s thoughts:
