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 on the western terrace, this apartment is approached up traditionally tiled steps and through a well-maintained communal hallway where your door is clearly numbered.

Opening to a generous hallway light oak parquet flooring flows into the principal rooms. The eye is first drawn to the exceptional open plan living room and kitchen to the front of the building where the ceiling soars adorned with the original cornicing of the era. The original deep skirting rails, window shutters and picture rails have also been retained, and the room follows the natural curve of the building on its easterly elevation. Set back from the road, the views are private and tall sashes frame the attractive architecture opposite.

Sociable and open to the room, the kitchen is contemporary with streamlined, handle-free cabinets which include integrated appliances alongside space for a washing machine.

Moving through the apartment, bedroom two is a peaceful double room enjoying garden views. While it is dressed as a single room, there is space for a double bed and freestanding furnishings. The shower room is conveniently next door with a chic monochrome scheme and soft lighting.

The principal bedroom is larger still, sitting at the far end of the apartment with dual aspect glazing to the west and south. Even with a king size bed and a desk for working from home, the floor space is not compromised and the en suite shares the same smart decoration as the second shower room. With two double bedrooms and two bathrooms, the layout is ideal for professional sharers.

From the principal room, a door opens to the garden which is perfectly low-maintenance, ready for the busy modern lifestyle. The paved, walled courtyard space is large enough for summer barbecues and gatherings where you can sit outside in the last of the summer sunshine. For the green fingered, you can add plenty of colour and scent with potted or climbing plants.

This sunny and spacious garden apartment is perfectly situated in a popular area with lots of local shops and the beach nearby. The city centre shopping districts and parks are also within easy reach, and it also offers easy access to Brighton and Hove Stations which have direct and fast links to the airports and London.
