Built during the early 19th Century as part of the Brunswick Town Estate, these townhouses bear the classic curved facades of the era with tall sash windows and iron balconies. At this time, Brighton had become one of the most popular places to live in the UK after the Prince Regent took up residence here in The Royal Pavilion. Now many of these grand buildings have been converted into spacious apartments, but they remain as fashionable today. This sweet apartment is formed from the top floor, giving it incredible views over the historic landscape to the sea.

From the moment you enter, you eye is drawn to the bright and generous open plan living room and kitchen where sunlight streams in from the west via two sash windows looking out over the roofline opposite, enjoying oblique views of the sea. There is ample space in the living room area for comfortable furnishings and potentially a small dining table and chairs alongside the kitchen which has been well designed for the space to include plenty of storage and integrated appliances, while leaving space for others.

Returning to the hall, the bathroom is immediately to the left with a classic white bath suite with shower over. A wall of palm leaf paper adds a pop of stylish colour and interest, and a heated rail is wall mounted for towels.

Next door, the bedroom is a great size with plenty of built-in storage to maximise the floor space. Even with a king size bed and freestanding pieces of bedroom furniture, there is space to play with and the far-reaching views along the coast are a joy to wake up to. With such an elevated position in the building, you can always ensure a restful night’s sleep

This bright and airy flat is beautifully 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 this home also offers easy access to Brighton Station which has direct and fast links to the airports and London.
