Why you’ll like it:

As the grand design of renowned 19th Century architect Charles Busby, Brunswick was to be a ‘new town’ for all levels of society, built around the regal townhouses of the square. The lattice of streets surrounding it were built to house the residents who served this bustling community, and almost two-hundred years later, this area remains just as desirable. Even the retailers, theatres, eateries and people have remained the same: a fabulous mixture of stylish, diverse, and creative folk, loving life by the sea. Busby himself could not have wished for more.

Wellington Court sits at the southern end of the street with the beach on its doorstep. Formed from two neighbouring townhouses, the apartments within it have the elegant proportions of the period with high ceilings and tall sash windows to fill them with light. This spacious ground floor flat is no exception.

Stepping in through the portico entrance, the flat has easy access on the ground floor. You enter in to a long corridor stretching back through the flat, where dark wood flooring flows through to the generous open plan living room at the front. Many period features remain to include deep skirting boards, decorative cornicing and a grand fireplace, while natural light streams in from the east via two multi-pane sash windows. Within the mantelpiece, a wood burning stove has been fitted to add warmth and atmosphere to wintery evenings, and there is ample space for both comfortable sofas and a dining table and chairs.

Open to the room, the kitchen has been well-designed, so it does not impose on the space. Modern white cabinets provide a wealth of storage, leaving space for a tall fridge freezer, a dishwasher and a washing machine, while the oven and gas hob are integrated.

Peacefully positioned, looking out over the courtyard to the rear, the bedroom is a large double room with a westerly aspect and full wall of floor to ceiling built-in storage which maximises the floor space further. Wood flooring and white walls create a blank canvas to suit all styles of furnishing and the bathroom is conveniently nearby.

Slate brick and mosaic tiles line the floor within the wet-room, rainfall shower, while large-scale white tiles adorn the walls in the stylish bathroom at the end of the hall. There is a separate bath for relaxing after a long day, plus a contemporary vanity unit sits below the basin to complete the modern look.

Agent’s thoughts:

This is a fantastic flat which has been a hugely successful rental property, but it would equally be ideal as a first-step on the ladder.
