For Sale2 Bedroom Flat in Sussex Square, Brighton, BN2£675,000

Superb GARDEN apartment with GARAGE in beautiful Grade I listed townhouse in Brighton's historic Sussex Square. The apartment has front and rear courtyard gardens, the inner one accessible from both bedrooms, as well as exclusive residents-only gardens known as Kemp Town Enclosures. This beautiful regency property was rebuilt and renovated in its entirety around 10 years ago, to an exceptionally high standard. It therefore offers a unique opportunity to live in a modern flat with comparatively new plumbing, heating and electrics, yet behind the facade of a period building. Its tasteful interior includes engineered wood floors, shutters and contemporary fittings and fixtures. Just inside the entrance hall to the left is a fantastically useful study with glazed wall and door. To the right the wide hallway leads back to the bedrooms and at its widest, is given over to an ample dining area. Just before that are the doors to both the living room and kitchen. The living room looks out onto the front courtyard via a duo of south-facing sash windows and gives a great first impression. A large fireplace is the focal point and white walls bounce around the natural light. Just adjacent and semi-separate, is the kitchen with its clean lines, sleek handle-less cabinets and granite countertops. The impeccable presentation is echoed in each of the two well proportioned bedrooms. With luxurious finishing touches, both rooms benefit from thoughfully-chosen fitted wardrobes along with either French or bi-fold doors to the rear courtyard garden. Whilst one has an outstanding en suite bathroom, the other has a fantastic en suite wet room. Outside Designed by the renowned Thomas Kemp, who lived in this particular building in the early 1800s, Sussex Square retains a wealth of original character with its distinguished listed properties. Behind classic wrought iron railings, steps lead down to the private entrance of this lower ground floor apartment, where a wide south-facing front courtyard offers a sunny space in which to sit and relax. At the rear of the apartment both bedrooms open to an additional decked courtyard that offers a 'secret garden' feel with plenty of room for potted plants. Across the road, residents of Sussex Square benefit exclusively from the wonderfully kept, gated communal gardens with their direct tunnel access to the seafront. * Please note: The front courtyard is only used by the current owners & feels completly private but gives access to a cupboard which is a communal bike storage, but which is rarely used. Situation Leafy Sussex Square provides a stunning example of Regency architecture with one of the largest crescents of its kind in Britain and former residents include author Lewis Carroll and a former prime minister. There are an excellent range of amenities and shops just 0.6 miles away in Kemp Town village, whilst central Brighton is 1.6 miles away and superstore shopping and restaurants at Brighton Marina are 0.9 miles distant. Fast, direct train services leave from Brighton station to London and Gatwick Airport. Local schools include Roedean School and Brighton College.
