Brimming with potential, this sweet one-bedroom flat is ideally located for the city and universities making it perfect for those looking to get that first step on the ladder. It has been well maintained, but it offers new owners the chance to put their own stamp on the place. It is naturally light with sole access to a sweet patio garden to the rear and its own street entrance due to its lower ground position within the building. Sitting within a Victorian terraced house to the east of Lewes Road, it is peaceful, yet incredibly well-connected to the city with all its delights in walking distance.

Stepping down to the flat, you are greeted into an entrance hall with space to hang coats and arrange shoes. The bedroom is first to the right facing the front of the building, yet a frosted windowpane and the lower-level position ensures it is private from the street. It is a lovely double room with freshly painted walls and wood flooring offering a neutral blank canvas for new owners. There is ample space for a double bed and freestanding bedroom furnishings without compromising on floor space.

Moving through the flat, the living room sits centrally with direct access to a surprisingly large patio which becomes a wonderful extension of the home during warmer weather. There is space for furniture to dine alfresco, and huge scope to add colour and planting of your choice which would brighten up the outlook from inside. Internally there is space for relaxation on comfortable sofas and for formal dining alongside the kitchen which feels partially open to the room. It is simply designed in here with shaker units and an integrated oven, gas hob and under counter fridge, while space has been left for a washing machine. Likewise, the shower room adjoining has plenty of natural light, and while it is in perfect working order, there is potential for modernisation to add value.

Vendor’s Comments:
“This is a great area to live in - there’s a real buzz about the place with a mix of families, professionals and students living in the surrounding streets. The transport links are amazing, but I love being able to walk into the city...on the flat, in just a few minutes.”
