Freehold of building included.

Newly renovated to an exceptional standard, offering high ceilings, generous room proportions and sea views, this substantial three-bedroom maisonette is ideal for both entertaining and raising a family in comfort. While the buildings period character and features have been retained, the interior aesthetic is contemporary and immaculately finished, ready to move straight in.

Located in one of the city’s most sought after locations, it has many endearing qualities, sitting in close proximity to two commuter stations, the cool café culture of Seven Dials, St Ann’s Well Gardens and several popular schools. Spread over the upper two floors of an Edwardian house, it offers versatile living space for any growing family but will also appeal to professional sharers who will find the city location ideal.

Stepping into the apartment on the first floor, it is clearly a beautiful home, renovated by those with a keen eye for interior design and a respect for period properties. A galleried landing runs the length of the first floor with the open plan living room, dining room and kitchen spanning the front of the building. This is a fantastic space which invites entertaining, family time and relaxation with ample room for large furnishings and a formal dining table. Windows almost cover the westerly elevation, framing views over the peaceful tree-lined road, while bringing warm light in during the afternoon. A period fireplace takes centre stage with decorative tiles adding a pop of colour, while the walls are fresh in white offering a blank canvas to new owners.

Recessed to the rear of the room, the kitchen feels streamlined with modern cabinetry in grey paired with warm oak parquet flooring and white marbled worktops. Space has been left for a washing machine and a fridge freezer, while the oven and gas hob are integrated below an extractor hood, and the worktop forms a breakfast bar for informal drinks and dining.

Moving through the building, bedroom three sits peacefully to the rear looking out over neighbouring gardens with an easterly aspect receiving the morning light. Next door, the main bathroom is glamorous with racing green oblong tiles around the gleaming white bath suite, complemented by brushed gold fittings adding a warm glow and a luxurious finish.

Upstairs, there are two further double bedrooms sitting either side of a second galleried landing. The principal room sits to the front of the house, now enjoying sea views from its dormer window, reminding you just how close to the coast you are here. It also boasts an en suite shower room in the same stylish décor as the main bathroom below. The second bedroom also benefits from deep eaves storage and a wall of exposed brick adding character and style to the space.

Good To Know: - This is a stunning property in a popular location which is well served for shops, parks and schools. Seven Dials has managed to retain an air of ‘cool’ for many years without being pretentious. There are establishments and families who have lived here for decades, and yet new and exciting shops, bars and restaurants pop up all the time, keeping it fresh. The beach is just a stroll away, as are St Ann’s Well Gardens and the Regency square enclosures on the seafront, or the South Downs are a 10-minute drive away up Dyke Road Avenue. The proximity of both Brighton and Hove stations makes it ever popular with commuters, and it is truly cosmopolitan, which attracts so many people here.
