A great first buy, this contemporary 1 bed apartment with a sunny balcony, secure, allocated parking and communal courtyard is a rare find. Tucked away in a central location within moments of the trees and fountains of Victoria Gardens, the Royal Pavilion and the vibrant North Laine. Inside is beautifully decorated and offers an open plan lifestyle, bathroom on trend and generous double bedroom. Completed in 2021, the innovative Circus Street development incorporates food and drink outlets as well as performance spaces and offices, and there’s easy access to bus routes to take you to all parts of the city as well as to the universities. What’s more, both the sea and the station (with direct trains to Gatwick and London) are just a 10 min walk away.

This striking, contemporary building is part of an architect led development which encourages a friendly community with a spacious garden to share as well as a pedestrian courtyard, landscaped for biodiversity– which you can enjoy from the private balcony. Inside, energy management includes high insulation, high performance glazing, an MVHR system and the underfloor heating and hot water is communal.

Quiet and secure, this apartment is on the ground floor and you step into a hushed hallway with space for storage. Ahead, the sun-lit kitchen/lounge has floor to ceiling glass doors which slide across to the balcony, ideal for al fresco entertaining. Safely tucked away from the in/out flow, the streamlined kitchen is very stylish, thoughtfully planned and good to go with a choice of ambient lighting levels, and integrated appliances include a touch induction hob and electric oven beneath a sleek hood.

All about relaxing, the light and airy double bedroom has a restful 5.01m x 3.15m (16’5 x 10’4) in which to unwind and the décor is calm. The shower room is next door, and discreetly tucked away is a practical utility area.

Owner's secret

“We needed to be close to the London Road which takes you into the heart of the city – or out to the A27 and were amazed at how quiet it is here with no passing traffic, and we like to sit on the balcony to discuss our weekend plans with a glass in hand and people watch. The walled garden is sociable, as lots of neighbours sit there for lunch, who always say hello, and it is extremely useful to have Budgens on the doorstep which opens early and closes late if you work at the hospitals or commute.”
