Why you’ll like it:
Effortlessly elegant, the Regency townhouses of Brunswick Town have become integral to Brighton and Hove’s unique identity as a cosmopolitan city of style and taste. They were the ‘brainchild’ of eminent architect, Charles Busby, as he hoped to replicate the distinguished Nash developments in London. Although most of the houses have now been converted into chic apartments such as this one, they continue to attract people here from far and wide, almost 200 years later.

Residing halfway up the eastern terrace, this apartment is approached up traditionally tiled steps and through a well-maintained communal stairwell where your door, fresh in zesty yellow, is clearly numbered on the second-floor landing.
Stepping inside, the eye is drawn first to the bright and generous, open plan living room and kitchen to the left. This room spans the front of the building, following the natural curve with three tall sashes overlooking the historic homes opposite. Well-designed with plenty of storage and some integrated appliances, the kitchen does not dominate the space, allowing room for both a dining table and relaxed furnishings without compromising on space. White units are paired with dark granite worktops, into which the sink and electric hob have been seamlessly cut in. There is space to entertain in here or simply relax after a long day while the sun sets over the roof and treetops opposite.

Moving through the flat, the bedroom is peacefully positioned to the rear of the building, looking down onto neighbouring gardens in the east. The light is beautiful in the morning and the room is restful in neutral tones of cream with soft carpet underfoot. It is a fine size double with a vast amount of storage on a slim mezzanine level which can be accessed by ladder – a huge bonus for apartment living. Even with a king size bed, the floor space is not compromised, and the bathroom is easy to access next door. This is nicely tiled with a modern bathroom suite and a shower over the bath.

Agent’s thoughts:
This is a fantastic apartment which will be ideal as a first step on the ladder or a sound investment for landlords.

Owner’s thoughts:
“The light, space and views in this flat are wonderful, and you don’t miss having a garden with the regency enclosures and St. Ann’s Well Gardens on your doorstep. Indeed, the location cannot be beaten for its proximity to the beach and having the station within walking distance has been wonderful.”
