Crescent Road, Brighton

At the top of the hill in the heart of the Roundhill Conservation Area stands Tower Mill House. Built in the mid 19th century and named after the historic windmill formerly standing opposite, this unique 1 bedroom property is in a sought after area ideal for commuters or couples as a home, a holiday let or a seaside retreat.

Lovingly renovated over the past 12 months, this flat is full of character, charm and designer touches. Arrange a viewing to see for yourself and you will fall in love with it, just like its current owner has.

HALLWAY
As you enter the property through its own street entrance, you are greeted by a large open hallway, full of grandeur, unusual in a converted flat of this nature. This is a spacious entrance hall with a high ceiling and original cornicing. It is a versatile space with plenty of room for an office area to work from home and enjoy the views of the delightful neighbourhood. Painted in heritage Farrow & Ball colours, it really feels like a Victorian townhouse.

KITCHEN / LOUNGE
With high ceilings, this open plan kitchen and lounge is large and welcoming. Its bold Farrow & Ball colours highlight its vintage charm, with designer touches such as exposed brick work and industrial style light fittings. The original marble fireplace is in full working order and perfect for cosy winter evenings in your own sanctuary. With a built in oven and hob, space for a dining table and a tumble dryer, it meets all the needs of a modern buyer or holiday guest. There is also plenty of built in storage. Adding extra flexibility, the original double doors into the bedroom remain intact behind the stud wall and original architrave, should you wish to change the layout and open up the entire ground floor.

REAR PATIO
Double glazed patio doors open out into a small but useful patio, currently furnished with a trendy outdoor bar to demonstrate the versatility of the space. The south facing patio benefits from sunlight in the morning, making it a lovely spot to enjoy breakfast.

BATHROOM
Through the door at the end of the kitchen/lounge is a stunning new bathroom, with vintage style sanitary ware including a large bath with wall-mounted shower attachment. It is decorated in quaint cottage style with Farrow & Ball painted beams and wooden cladding and a tiled floor. There are two large storage cupboards, one of which houses the boiler and has plumbing for a washing machine.

BEDROOM
In its present configuration, the bedroom is entered through a ‘secret’ door and a large space under the stairs - currently used as a walk-through wardrobe but ideal also for a small home office. This bedroom is one of the property’s biggest selling points: an enormous room packed full of original features, including cornicing and a ceiling rose on the fabulously high ceiling. Furthermore, it has a large, original fireplace with marble surround which has been swept and is again fully functioning. The owner has also had bespoke shutters installed on the bay window. This room is decorated in a dramatic but cosy style, with room for a king size bed and plenty of floor space. It offers luxury, comfort and style in a unique way befitting the character of this property.

ADDITIONAL FRONT PATIO AREA
Finally, the property benefits from a patio garden outside the front door belonging to all freeholders. The patio has been recently cleared by the current owner, making it a perfect west-facing spot to sit and enjoy a sunny evening with drinks and a guest or two.

This property in the Roundhill Conservation Area is equidistant from both London Road and Lewes Road shopping areas. It is also within walking distance of Fiveways, with London Road station only 4 mins away on foot. If you want a genuinely special property full of charm and character that is ready to move into, you won’t be disappointed in Tower Mill House.
