Description

Elevated on the top floor (3rd) of a period townhouse in Clifton Hill Conservation Area, this deceptively spacious, split-level apartment enjoys the elegant proportions of the era. It has been modernised throughout, yet many period features remain, adding to its character. Both bedrooms are double, and the living room is open plan, with space to sit, dine and entertain. Located just a few minutes from Brighton Station, the beach and the city centre, this superb apartment is perfectly positioned for those working both in and out of the city, and there is plenty to entertain you in nearby Seven Dials too. With fine finish throughout and a fantastic location; steeped in history and incredibly central, this apartment is sure to attract many. In brief: Style: third-floor Victorian apartment Type: 2 double bedrooms, 1 bathroom, 1 open plan living/dining room/kitchen Location: Clifton Hill Conservation Area Floor Area: Please see floor plan Outside: N/A Parking: Resident Permit Parking Zone Y Council Tax Band: A Why you’ll like it: Clifton Hill remains one of the most prestigious addresses in the city: characterised by some stunning examples of Regency and Victorian architecture, sitting atop the hill looking down to the sea; within easy walking distance of the city and all its delights. For somewhere so central, it is wonderfully peaceful, as it is nicely tucked away off the beaten track, between Seven Dials and Western Road. This apartment has a lovely aspect on the third floor of a townhouse at the southern end of the hill, so the views to the east and west look out over the historic rooftops below open skies. Elevated above the hubbub of the city also ensures it is a peaceful place to return home to each day. The house is attractive on approach with an immaculate white façade, offset by glossy railings and sash windows picked out in black. Upon entry, the scale of the building becomes apparent, with two staircases rising to the second floor where the door to this apartment is numbered. This opens to an internal staircase where there is space to hang coats and organise shoes before taking the final flight into the main body of the flat. First on the left, the living room is spacious yet homely with wide floorboards sanded and varnished back to their original glory. Running along the rear wall, the open plan kitchen does not dominate the space, having been well-designed to include plenty of storage alongside integrated appliances, so you can move straight in with relative ease. There is space for formal dining and relaxed seating without compromising on floor space. Both bedrooms sit to the front of the building with a westerly aspect bringing warm light to each space during the afternoon. They are double rooms with space for freestanding furnishings and there is additional clothes storage space on the landing outside bedroom two. Down on the half-landing, the bathroom is nicely tucked away. It has a classic monochrome scheme with patterned floor tiles and a shower over the white bath suite.
