College Road, Brighton

Set in the heart of Kemptown ‘Village’ with every amenity on its doorstep, this two-bedroom apartment is ideally located to enjoy the very best of Brighton & Hove. It resides within a Victorian conversion property spanning the second and third floors creating a deceptively spacious home with two double bedrooms and space for entertaining, relaxation and working from home.

While it is a city centre home, it is tucked away from the main roads, and its elevation above the city means it is a peaceful space. Stepping in through the communal main door, stairs rise to the second floor and the door to this apartment. Once inside, an internal staircase rises to the kitchen on the first half landing, adding to the feeling of space within the property. It is a great size offering plenty of storage solutions alongside some integrated appliances, leaving space for a washing machine.

Steps rise again to the main body of the flat where the eye is drawn first to the main living area spanning the front of the house with a wide bay sash window almost covering the westerly wall bringing in far reaching views and bathing the room in natural light. White walls and fawn carpet offer a blank, neutral canvas to suit all styles of furnishings and there is ample space for both relaxed sofas and a dining table and chairs.

Bedroom one is also on this level next to the bathroom which feels like an en suite while being accessible to all. The bedroom is a fine size double room with space for sizable furnishings without compromising on floor space. Peacefully positioned on the uppermost level to the rear of the building, bedroom two is another double room, making it ideal for sharers or small families with one or two children who can share.

Vendor’s Comments:

“This property has been a pleasure to own. Its character, spacious layout, and fantastic location have always made it easy to let and appealing to tenants. The combination of period charm and proximity to both the seafront and central amenities has ensured it remains consistently attractive. It’s been well cared for and has served as a solid, low-maintenance investment. Now, it’s time for a new owner to enjoy everything this remarkable home and setting have to offer.”
