Chapel Terrace, Brighton, BN2

Quietly situated within an attractive period terrace in Kemptown, this well-maintained two-bedroom first-floor apartment offers approximately 64 sq m / 689 sq ft of accommodation. Tall windows, high ceilings and decorative plasterwork give the home a distinctive character, complemented by a south-facing outlook towards St George’s Church and the leafy Church Gardens, which host a weekly farmers’ market.

The standout space is the open-plan kitchen, dining and living room, measuring approximately 20'5" x 15'11". A substantial bay with tall sash windows draws in natural light and provides an inviting setting for dining. Ornate cornicing and a decorative ceiling rose frame the room, while a working gas log fire in a cast-iron basket, with a period-style marble mantelpiece, slate surround and hearth, creates an attractive focal point. There is space for comfortable seating and entertaining.

The kitchen sits neatly to one side of the living space, with dark cabinetry, contrasting worktops and exposed-brick detailing. Appliances include a built-in oven, Smeg five-burner gas hob and extractor, dishwasher and stainless-steel Bosch double fridge/freezer.

Both bedrooms accommodate double beds, with the larger bedroom positioned towards the rear of the flat and benefiting from custom-made fitted double wardrobes with mirrored doors. The bathroom includes a bath with an overhead shower, wash basin, WC and heated towel rail. A separate storage area houses the washing machine, gas boiler serving hot water and central heating, and useful cupboards. A camera entry system is located in the hall.

The balcony offers sitting-out space for a table and chairs. The flat is well maintained and in good condition, with smart, carpeted entrance and communal areas providing a welcoming approach. Fixtures, fittings and blinds are included, with some furniture also available by arrangement.

Chapel Terrace lies just one street back from the seafront, with nearby pubs and the Sea Lanes leisure complex on Madeira Drive, which is approximately a 5-minute walk away. Sea Lanes offers a swimming pool open from early until late, together with a café, gym and other leisure facilities, making it a particularly convenient local amenity. Kemptown’s shops, cafés, pubs and chemist are within easy walking distance, while several nearby bus routes provide convenient public transport connections.

The apartment is also well placed for exploring Brighton, with approximately a 15-minute walk into the centre of Brighton and around a 15-minute walk to Brighton Marina. The Royal Sussex County Hospital, cancer centre and children’s hospital are also close by.
