2 bedroom flat for sale

Guide Price £450,000 - £475,000
Located on the first and second floors of this handsome Grade II listed semi-detached villa, built around 1830 – 32, this is a spacious apartment with high ceilings, two bedrooms and an elegant open-plan kitchen/living/dining room.

The entrance to the flat is on the first floor, from where a staircase rises to the second-floor accommodation. As the staircase turns, you pass a utility room off the half-landing, with space and plumbing for a washing machine and a full-height fridge freezer. Arriving on the second floor, you find yourself on an exceptionally wide landing, from where the remaining rooms are accessed. At the front of the building, the living room has a wide curved bay with tall sash windows and panelling beneath. There are built-in cabinets to the side of the chimney breast and a further built-in storage cupboard.

In the kitchen area, a smart grey kitchen with white metro tile splashbacks includes integrated appliances – a Bosch electric fan oven, a Bosch four-burner gas hob and an integrated Hotpoint dishwasher. The floor features attractive Victorian-style tiles.

There are two double bedrooms – one at the front of the property and the principal bedroom at the rear, which has an entire wall of fitted wardrobes. The bathroom is beautifully fitted, with a large Savoy period-style handbasin on a washstand frame. Above is a mirror flanked by sconce lights. Above the bath is a thermostatic shower with both waterfall and handheld shower heads. Off the landing, the apartment has access to the loft, providing further storage space.

Lansdowne Place is in the prestigious Brunswick Town Conservation area. At the bottom of the road you are on Hove seafront, from where you can wander down to the popular Meeting Place Café and past the bandstand to the i360. On Western Road there is a choice of restaurants, pubs, cafés and independent retailers, and you can stroll into central Brighton or jump on one of many buses to other parts of the city. Transport connections are excellent: both Brighton and Hove train stations are within walking distance or can be reached by bus.
