2 Bed Terraced House, Single Let, Brighton, BN2 1DJ £750,000

Tucked away but easily accessible, the kitchen feels spacious and well designed to include an integrated washing machine, dishwasher and fridge freezer, leaving space for a range cooker, which may be included with the sale (please ask you agent for details on this). There is a vast amount of storage and granite workspace for the keen cook, so you can move straight in without changing a thing.

Moving through the flat, the principal bedroom suite sits peacefully to the rear of the building with a gloriously high ceiling and a naturally curved wall with two tall sashes framing private views over the terrace. Neutrally decorated with soft carpet under foot, this room will suit all styles of furnishing and even with a king size bed, the floor space is not compromised. The ceiling height allows for a sizable mezzanine floor which could have any number of uses as a walk-in wardrobe, exercise/yoga space or an occasional sleeping area for guests. Below it, the en suite bathroom has Travertine floor tiles and a traditional style four-piece sanitaryware suite, in keeping with the era of the building. There is a full bath and a separate shower for when time is of the essence.

Bedroom two is another elegant double room with direct access to the private terrace, so with the door open during summer, the cool seafront breeze can flow through. Outside, there is ample space for barbecues and gatherings, or sitting with a morning coffee or sundowner, plus it is perfectly low-maintenance, ready for the busy modern lifestyle.

Bedroom two has easy access to the second bathroom across the hall which shares the same traditional styling but with a roomy, curved door shower cubical.

Vendor’s Comments

“Living on Kemptown Seafront never tires, particularly during summer when you can pop to the beach in the evening for dinner and drinks, or for sea swimming in the morning. Sea Lanes is a great addition to the seafront, when the sea is a little cold or rough, and there is so much to enjoy within walking distance from the flat – from the city centre restaurants and bars to the lovely cafes and shops closer by in Kemp Town Village. It will be a wrench to leave here.”
