Driving into the city past the glorious Preston Park, you come across these striking Victorian villas sitting in the foreground of Brighton Viaduct’s graceful arches. They are set well back from the road where a wide path with stone steps leads up to the main front door, while private residents’ parking is tucked away to the rear, out of sight of the main road. Once inside the communal hallways, the scale of the building becomes apparent as you take the stairs to your floor.

Stepping inside, it is clear this is a well-maintained apartment. The rooms are well proportioned and naturally light as sun streams in on via double glazed sash windows. From the living room and bedroom, these frame leafy views looking out over the treetops of Preston Park, so you feel a million miles from the city centre while having it just a stroll away for convenience.

Deceptively spacious, the living room has ample space for a dining table and chairs, plus furniture for relaxation, while the kitchen is partially open to the room due to a wide opening which allows for borrowed light. Engineered wood and white walls offer a blank canvas to suit all styles of furnishing, and this décor flows into the entrance hall for continuity.

Well-equipped with plenty of storage and some integrated appliances, the kitchen is ready to use. Space and plumbing have been left for a washing machine which may be available by separate negotiation.

A fine size double, the bedroom has space for comfortable furnishings and has been carpeted for added warmth and comfort. Nearby, the bathroom is classic in white and blue with a shower over the bath.

Agent’s thoughts:
Ready to go and perfectly located for those living and working in the city, we do not expect this property to sit on the market for long.

Owner’s thoughts:
“There’s so much to love about this place – from the views, the peace and quiet and the close proximity to the park during summer. As commuters, the location is also amazing, so we will miss it here hugely.”
