A fantastic opportunity to buy a share-of-freehold, one-bedroom flat with a gorgeous garden, in a Victorian property on Vere Road, near Preston Circus. This would be an ideal purchase for someone who wants to live in a central Brighton location.

Vere Road is a popular residential road of attractive Victorian properties near Preston Circus. The flat is conveniently located for shops, cafés, pubs and restaurants. The Duke of York's Picturehouse, just around the corner, is Brighton's much-loved oldest cinema, screening a huge variety of films throughout the week. A short stroll down London Road will bring you to the vibrant open market which is home to independent shops, artist's studios and plaza traders with stalls selling handmade arts and crafts, delicious food and much more. There are great local pubs and restaurants including the Hare & Hounds, Joker, Open House, Signal Man, Preston Park Tavern and the Roundhill, all close by. The property is ideally located for commuters, London Road Station is a three-minute walk and Brighton Mainline station is also within walking distance, with direct services to London Bridge and Victoria, which arrive in London in less than an hour. Several bus routes run close by which will take you straight into town.

The living room is at the front of the flat and has high ceilings with a wide, west-facing bay window, with double-glazing, dressed with pretty white louvred shutters. Under the windows is the original decorative wood panelling. The floor in this room is carpeted and has been insulated underneath with DB board sound insulation, as the current owner is a musician. The bedroom and bathroom are off the main hallway. The bathroom has a white suite with mosaic-style wall tiles and there is a shower attachment and shower screen over the bath. The bedroom is at the back of the property with a window onto the garden.

In the kitchen, there is a breakfast bar which seats two. The cabinets are white with a wood-effect countertop and there is space for a freestanding cooker and a fridge freezer. There is plenty of cupboard space too, especially as the washing machine and dryer are housed in a separate utility cupboard off the small lobby near the kitchen.

Stepping out into the garden you find yourself in an oasis of calm. A large evergreen pittosporum by the back door is the size of a small tree and frames the view from the kitchen perfectly. The garden has been landscaped with raised, brick, flowerbeds, a wide gravel path and a small area of grass; there are climbing plants including a passion flower. There is also a useful storage shed.

The property has double-glazed windows and the central heating is run from a Baxi combi boiler that is around four years old.
