1 bedroom apartment for sale

Peacefully tucked away from the main roads, but with the relaxed café culture of Kemp Town Village on your doorstep and the sea just a stroll down the hill, this smart one-bedroom apartment is perfectly positioned to enjoy this vibrant coastal city. It is formed from the lower ground floor of a Victorian townhouse, so it bears the generous proportions of the era and is naturally light due with tall windows looking out to its generous walled patio.

It also benefits from its own street entrance, adding to the feeling of privacy, and has been modernised throughout, so it is ready to move straight into, appealing to home seekers, weekenders and by-to-let investors alike.

Entering through a secure wrought iron gate on Arundel Place, stone steps lead down to a generous L-shaped patio area with large scale sandstone paving providing both covered and open courtyard areas for dining alfresco during summer. The front door is close to the bottom of the steps, but French doors also access the bedroom.

Stepping in through the front door, you are greeted into the living room where gleaming wooden floors and freshly painted walls offer a neutral yet stylish blank canvas for new owners. It is naturally light for a lower-level apartment as two sash windows look out over the patio which forms a charming backdrop to the room. There is ample space for relaxed seating and a dining table in here, with the kitchen adjoining.

With plenty of storage space and an integrated oven and hob, the kitchen is ready to go. Space has been left for a washing machine (which may stay) and an under-counter fridge below solid oak worktops to echo the tone of the floor.

The bedroom is a lovely double room sharing the same aesthetic and patio views as the living room. French doors open to the courtyard which becomes a lovely extension of the home during summer, so you can sit outside with the weekend papers and a coffee in the morning. Nearby, the bathroom is classic in white with a shower over the bath.
