About this home
Tucked away on this pretty street just down from Kemptown Village High Street, the Royal Sussex Hospital and 1 block from the seafront, this charming apartment has plenty to offer, from its period features and wonderfully high ceilings to its own roof terrace, a rather lovely spot to enjoy a summer evening.
As you enter, the recently decorated communal hallway sets the tone, with stairs rising to the first floor. A further flight of stairs leads you up, where the impressive ceiling height and generous entrance space offer a wonderful opportunity to create a gallery-style display – perfect for anyone with an eye for art.
On the landing you'll find access to the roof terrace. Currently laid with artificial grass, this space has plenty of potential to become a delightful outdoor retreat. Imagine a little bistro set, a few pots of greenery and supper outside as the evening sun makes an appearance. Not a bad way to end the day!
A charming period handrail guides you up another flight of stairs to a further landing, which could make a rather useful home office or study area. From here, doors lead to the bedroom, bathroom and lounge.
The bedroom is a peaceful retreat, with a deep built-in wardrobe providing some very welcome storage and a sash window overlooking the gardens to the rear.
Next door is the bathroom, fitted with a generous bath for those well-earned long soaks, with a shower over for everyday convenience. A heated towel rail, WC and wash hand basin complete the room, which is finished with crisp white tiling.
The lounge is generous in size, offering plenty of room for both comfortable seating and a dining table. A recently replaced, energy-efficient south-facing window floods the room with natural light, creating a lovely bright space to relax or entertain.
Just next door is the separate kitchen, which also benefits from a south-facing energy-efficient window. There is plenty of wooden worktop space for any budding chefs, a wall-mounted gas boiler and a range of under-counter appliances, including a fridge, freezer and washing machine. An electric oven is currently fitted, although gas is available should you prefer to install a gas cooker.
The flat is offered chain free and ready to move into, making it an appealing prospect for anyone looking to get their foot on the property ladder.
We've also included some virtually staged photographs to help you imagine just how lovely this apartment could look with a little furniture and personal styling. With its character, generous ceiling heights, separate kitchen and outdoor space, we think this could make a rather special first home.
