Why you’ll like it:

These modern apartments were converted in 2004 and are now amongst the most sought-after along the London Road from Preston Park. They are surrounded by secure gates, and as you enter the lobby it feels more akin to a hotel foyer with stylish artwork on the walls and slate tiles on the floor. A tall steel lift takes you up to the sixth floor where your door is clearly numbered, and you are welcomed in to a wide entrance hall with engineered oak flooring which flows into the principal rooms. There is also a vast amount of storage within the hallway for household items, so this spacious flat will always remain clutter free.

Stepping into the living room, it is the breath-taking views which greet you as a wall of glazing frames the green and leafy vista, taking your line of sight across Withdean Park below big, open skies. Facing east, a beautiful light streams in during the morning, and there is access to the balcony, so you can sit out during the summer with your breakfast. Inside, there is ample space for comfortable furnishings and formal dining, and being elevated so high in the building, you are undisturbed by the road.

Opposite, the kitchen has contemporary units in charcoal gloss forming an L-shape, with a stone topped breakfast bar opposite. Below the worktops, the dishwasher is integrated alongside the induction hob, while the ovens have been thoughtfully placed in a tower. The fridge freezer and washing machine are freestanding, although both may be negotiable with the sale.
With the same sunny aspect as the living room, bedrooms one and two sit side by side, and both have access to the balcony, so you can enjoy the sunrise, looking out over the park with your morning coffee and papers. These rooms are generous doubles with space for king beds and freestanding furnishings, although bedroom two has a deep built-in wardrobe. Bedroom three mirrors bedroom two in size and shape, and also has a built-in wardrobe, yet it looks out to the rear over the embankment. These rooms have soft grey carpet underfoot and walls to complement, so they will suit all styles of modern furnishing. Double glazing and central heating will also ensure a warm and restful night’s sleep.

They share use of the bathroom which has stylish slate-grey tiles running from the floor and up the walls. There is a separate bath – ideal for families, and a rainfall shower for when time is of the essence. The sanitaryware is contemporary and there is a heated rail for towels.

Agent’s thoughts:

Stylish, spacious and ready to move straight into – this brilliantly located and secure apartment will appeal to many.

Owner’s secret

“We bought the flat 4 years ago and have loved how quiet it is here for somewhere so conveniently located for the city. You can jump on a bus or on the train at Preston Park and be in the City Centre in minutes and the A23 is just 5-minutes away by car. We also loved the views when we first came here as they fill the rooms and change throughout the year.”
