Description

***Guide Price: £285,000 - £300,000***

A fabulous large split-level period apartment over the upper floors of a handsome Victorian property with large loft suitable for conversion. Sought-after location close to city centre and local parks. Offered chain-free with share of freehold.

This fantastic, spacious apartment is well presented and really stands out with its light, airy and very generous rooms. The entrance to the property is on the ground floor, with a staircase rising from the front door to the first-floor landing. As the staircase is internal to the flat itself, it adds to the feeling of space. Once on the first floor, there is a large open-plan kitchen/dining/living room at the front of the property. A large bay window has a leafy outlook and the décor is in contemporary neutral tones. A dining table could easily be accommodated in this part of the room, and there is a distinct zone for the kitchen at the rear, where there are modern units, an electric oven and hob and integrated appliances. A breakfast bar area has space to seat three people.

At the opposite end of the apartment is a huge bedroom, over six metres in length, which is dual aspect with one window to the rear and two windows to the side. It isn't easy to find flats with bedrooms of this size. Adjacent is the bathroom, which has a white suite with large format tiles in a brick bond pattern and a shower bath with a concealed thermostatic shower and shower screen. The handbasin is a modern design and wall-hung, increasing the floor space and overall feeling of size. The property has just been completely refurbished both internally and externally.

The property is located on Ditchling Road, opposite the top of Springfield Road and is a short stroll from Preston Park, which has large open spaces, tennis courts, a velodrome and two places to grab a coffee and a bite to eat - the Rotunda Café or the Chalet Café. The Duke of York's Picturehouse, Brighton's much-loved cinema, is moments away at Preston Circus, screening a huge variety of films throughout the week. A short stroll down London Road will bring you to the vibrant Open Market, which is home to independent shops, artist's studios and plaza traders with stalls selling handmade arts and crafts, delicious food and much more. There are great local pubs and restaurants, including the Open House, Signalman, Jolly Brewer, Preston Park Tavern and the Roundhill, all close by, to name but a few! The Roundhill is notable as it has an entirely vegan kitchen, serving award-winning plant-based meals. The property is ideally located for commuters, as Brighton Mainline station is within walking distance. Even closer is London Road station with services to Lewes and connecting services to London. Several bus routes run on Ditchling Road or from Beaconsfield Road, making you well connected to the rest of the city.
