Expertly renovated and beautifully styled, this one-bedroom patio flat is ready to move straight into. It is also brilliantly located between Brighton Station and Seven Dials and just a few minutes from the beach and the city centre – ideal for commuters, first time buyers and landlords alike.

It is formed within the ground floor of a substantial Victorian townhouse, so its rooms are nicely proportioned and naturally light due to the elevated position on the hill.

Immaculate throughout, it has freshly painted walls in a range of subtle neutral tones, paired with herringbone wood flooring and high-end fixtures and fittings giving the entire space a timeless and stylish finish. For those who love the Brighton & Hove vibe, this apartment is the perfect abode.

Why you’ll like it:
For somewhere so central, West Hill Conservation Area is uniquely peaceful as its streets sit tucked away from the main hubbub of Seven Dials and the city centre. This apartment has its own street entrance to the side of the building on the ground floor.

Once inside, it is immediately clear this is a beautifully renovated property with a fresh, contemporary feel. Warm oak herringbone flooring brings both form and function to each room, flowing across thresholds from the entrance hall. This is a welcoming space to come home to, with built-in cupboards for coats, shoes and household items to ensure the flat remains clutter free.

The bedroom sits first on the left with a tranquil outlook and a wall of built-in wardrobes to maximise the floor space. Even with a king size bed, this is not compromised, allowing room for freestanding bedside tables and a chest of drawers. Energy efficient double glazing also ensures a restful and peaceful night’s sleep.
Next door, the kitchen is a fantastic size for the keener cook. Using a modern-country kitchen theme, oak worktops echo the tone of the floor, sitting above Shaker cabinetry with a butler sink seamlessly cut-in. While some appliances have been integrated, to include a fan oven and an induction hob, space has been left for a tall fridge freezer. Open oak shelving completes the scheme providing space for cookbooks, plants, glassware or crockery.

At the end of the hall, the living room is naturally light and airy with two tall sash windows looking out over the green of the garden. There is ample space for formal dining and relaxation in here, or you can take your drinks and dinner outside during summer. While there is no direct access from the flat, it is a simple walk around the side of the building from the front door.
As expected, the bathroom is immaculately finished with patterned floor tiles around a gleaming white bath suite. There is a shower over the bath for a refreshing start to the day, and a tall heated rail in white warms you and your towels during winter.

This modern flat is 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 house also offers easy access to Brighton Station which has direct and fast links to the universities, airports and London.
