Description

In a unique location opposite a park with the bars, cafés and shops of St James’ Street (on the Pride route) at one end of the historic terrace – and Eastern Road which hosts Amex, the legal centres and the hospital at the other – this spacious studio is a great first buy or high end investment. Good to go with 29.66m2 (319.25 sq. ft.) it’s light and spacious with classic proportions and leafy views from the inviting studio room and contemporary kitchen, and the shower room has a luxury finish.

One block from the beach and a 10-15 minute bus ride from Brighton Station’s direct trains to Gatwick and London, this is a great, central spot where a 5 min ramble down St James’s Street or scenic stroll along the seafront will take you to the picturesque Lanes, famous art venues or clubs, the County Hospital is a 15 minute walk and the whole of the city and surrounding countryside is easy to reach by bus or car.

In brief:

Why you’ll like it:
Far quieter than its fashionable setting might suggest, this elegant studio has a rare balance between quietude and vibrant amenities around the corner. Tucked away from the tourist trail you leave any tensions of the day behind as you step through the grand front door, secured by an answer system and this apartment, with generous proportions, is on the first floor.

Inside, the hushed hallway has storage and ahead, spanning 5.10m x 3.6m (16’8 x 11’9) with a large window to frame the fabulous view over the park, the studio room is a classic beauty with ample floorspace in which to create defined areas where you can relax or enjoy time with friends and family. The ceiling height is impressive with space for a mezzanine sleeping platform and there are fitted wardrobes as well as shelving on each side of the period fireplace.

Across the hallway, the sunny kitchen also has open, leafy views so you don’t feel hemmed in even though you’re at the centre of the city, and it’s well designed with a stylish gas hob and electric oven beneath a hood, the streamlined units are topped by gleaming working surfaces and there’s designated space for a fridge freezer if you like to entertain.

Ready for your move, or to rent, the light and airy shower room has a luxury finish which includes a large walk in shower, a lit mirror and a warming rail for towels.

Agent says:
“Close to but tucked away from the pride route, this apartment is opposite a secluded park in the heart of the city with the sea, a pedestrian plaza and the cultural heart only a few minutes away on foot. Also within easy reach of major employers including the County Hospital, it is good to go as a home, rental or air bnb.”

Owner’s secret:
“Although a fantastic, central location, with the park opposite and the sea just a few minutes’ walk I never felt hemmed in and people living or working locally meet either in the park, plaza or in the Pavilion Gardens at the bottom of the hill for lunch in the sun, so there is a friendly community, and you won’t feel isolated if you’re new. Tucked away from the tourists on a one way street the studio is surprisingly quiet even with the cafés, bars and restaurants on St James’s Street at the end of the street most of which are independent and are all very welcoming-and you can walk to all the famous landmarks like the Royal Pavilion, Dome and Pier in about 5 minutes.”

Shops: St James’s Street 1 min on foot
Train Station: 10-15 minutes by bus
Seafront or Park: Both within 5 mins walk

Close to the picturesque Lanes at the cultural heart of the city, the whole of Brighton and Hove is easy to reach on foot, by bus or by car and the station with its fast links to the airports and London is a 15 minute walk- or 5 by cab- and if you need a car, parking zone C has no waiting list for permits.
