Known as Greenwich-by-the-Sea, this area attracts many making the move down from London due to its vibrant foodie scene, café culture, great commuter links and fresh sea air. Formed from the raised ground floor of a classic Victorian townhouse, this flat enjoys the high ceilings of the era and some beautiful original features which have been celebrated and paired with a heritage palette and modern fittings – all in keeping with the character of the building. Stepping inside, it is clear the current owners have an eye for interior design and colour. Every room is finished to a high standard so you can move straight in with ease. The eye is drawn to the living room where natural light streams in through the tall, shuttered window which almost covers the south-westerly wall. The bay provides the perfect space for a dining table if desired, while there is ample space elsewhere for comfortable furnishings for relaxation alongside the decorative, original marble fireplace. Next door, sharing the same elegant proportions, the bedroom is peacefully positioned looking out over the garden. Even with a double bed, 2 double fitted wardrobes and freestanding pieces of bedroom furniture, the floor space is not compromised and a tall window frames leafy views which are a joy to wake up to. Moving through the flat, the hallway widens towards the kitchen which would allow space for a sideboard or desk for working from home. Within the kitchen, Shaker cabinetry in grey is paired with marbled laminate worktops and complementary pattered tile splashbacks – all of which are on trend and timeless to last for years to come. Within these the oven, hob and dishwasher are integrated, leaving space for a washing machine and a tall fridge freezer which may be available by separate negotiation. The WC is nicely separate, while the bathroom sits at the far end of the flat with classic marbled tiles around the bath which has a shower over it. Outside, the pretty garden has been laid with shingle stones, reminiscent of the beach nearby. For a city centre space, it feels perfectly private and provides the opportunity to grow potted and climbing plants along the trellises. This is a stunning apartment in a popular location which is well served for shops, parks and schools. There are plenty of local green spaces, and great transport links, but you are also only a short walk from everything this vibrant coastal city has to offer. The A23/A27 and both Brighton and Hove Stations are also within easy reach, for those requiring fast links to the universities, Gatwick or London on a daily or weekly basis.
