Prestonville Court, Dyke Road, Brighton, East Sussex, BN1

Light and spacious, this modernist two bedroom apartment with a glamorous southwest balcony, a garage, a storage room and first come onsite parking is surrounded by greenery in the fashionable 7 Dials with its relaxed al fresco lifestyle and fantastic amenities from fresh coffee to a post office.

Ideal if you commute by car, bus or train, as its name suggests, the Dials offers 7 routes into the city or out to the A23/A27 or National Park, and the direct trains from Brighton to Gatwick and London are a 14 minute walk – or 5 by cab.

A home to make your own or solid investment, it is tucked quietly away at the back of this small development away from the road, and designed to bring in the Sussex sunshine, the sociable living room and balcony for friends to spill out to both bathe in it! Next door, the classic kitchen is good to go with a fitted gas hob and oven, the shower room is separate from the w.c, ideal if you share and both bedrooms are bright doubles with fitted wardrobes.

7 Dials is a great place to be and is a favourite with professionals and small families within walking distance of a good primary school and 6th form college, a choice of parks – Dyke Road with tennis courts, a playground, café and open air theatre, and St Anne’s Wells Gardens sports facilities and green spaces which hosts events during our legendary festivals, and the vibrant North Laine and city centre and sea are within a 15-20 minute stroll.

Why you’ll like it:

This big, bright apartment offers easy access to cosmopolitan shopping, bars and theatres but you’ll return to restful open views - and easy parking with both a garage and some 1st come parking onsite too. With a level entrance and double glazing this small, neat development is attractive, and on the 1st floor, inside the hallway of this apartment is hushed, with floor to ceiling double cupboards for coats and bags.

Ahead, the streamlined living room is lined with windows, and with no building directly opposite it has uninterrupted light, and there is ample space to zone the room into defined areas for work, rest or play – and the balcony, which is not directly overlooked either, is perfect for entertaining.

Next door, the modern kitchen is a classic which won’t date and has a skilled layout, plenty of storage and practical working surfaces. Good to go, the gas hob and electric oven are beneath a hood, there is plumbing in place for both a dishwasher and a washing machine and designated space for a tall fridge freezer.

Light and airy, guests will love the first of the double bedrooms which is a good size with a double, fitted wardrobe already if you wanted to share, and across the hallway the shower room has all you need, with a separate w.c. next door which is very useful in a busy household! A relaxing retreat with lots of floorspace even with a double bed in it, the principal bedroom is an oasis of calm in the city, ready for your move with floor to ceiling wardrobes offering organised storage, and it has surprisingly open views for this chic, central spot.

Agent Says

“Big and bright with a social flow, this home offers a rare chance to ramp up the glamour (and add value! stnc.) Priced to sell, it is in the exclusive 7 Dials, a fashionable location within walking distance of the station and the North Laine, as well as the city centre and the seafront which is lined with beach bars and restaurants.”

Owner’s Secret

“Quiet, convenient and with energy efficient windows, the building itself is open and airy in summer and warm and welcoming in winter. Tucked away, the location is hard to beat with lovely neighbours, and everything you need is within walking distance, so you won’t be tied to a car at weekends. There’s an intercontinental, alfresco lifestyle whichever direction you set out to walk in, and always something to do whatever your mood-from parks and beaches to clubs, or internationally acclaimed restaurants, theatres and festivals. Inside is ideal for relaxing or fun evenings with friends as people like to meet here before or after exploring the city.”
