Why You’ll Like It
A great package just a few minutes from the historic cultural heart of the city – on foot- Queen’s Park is one of the most sought after areas of our coastal city particularly loved by families because of its proximity to the café and playground of Queen’s Park, outstanding St Luke’s Primary and Brighton College. Students like it for its swift links to art colleges, universities and teaching hospitals, and professionals choose it as it has plentiful permit parking, it is close to the County Hospital, Brighton General, legal quarter and Amex as well as to the sea - and now is the time to buy when substantial improvements are underway along the seafront including a new Lido and café bars on the local beaches!

On a tree-lined street, outside the house has charm and the door opens to a communal hall which is clearly cared for. Up on the first floor, this maisonette has a landing to itself and no-one above it, so it is quiet and private. Inside has a bright and cheerful east/west orientation with a contemporary finish which includes blonde wood flooring in the main rooms.

All about a glamorous, coastal lifestyle, the open plan living room invites company with plenty of sun-lit space in which to relax or to entertain and a bay which almost fills the east wall where friends and family can enjoy a leafy vista which changes during winter.

With classic proportions, crisp decoration and spotlights in the high ceiling which can be dimmed there’s 4.04 x 6.87m (13’3 x 22’3) to spread into. This space is well planned with the kitchen area tucked along one corner of the room, so although sociable it doesn’t dominate the whole space. Streamlined units with practical surfaces provide ample storage and everything is to hand from the electric hob and combi oven beneath a hood, and there’s an easy flow to the roof terrace which is just off the landing above.

A spacious sun trap of 2.16 x 4.06m (7’1 x 13’4), this east facing terrace is open to the south where guests can relax and enjoy a picture perfect vista of the city which sweeps to the sea by day and which glitters at night.

Returning inside, at the back of the property, the first double bedroom is ideal for guests or sharers with open views, and it’s next to a light and airy bathroom with a shower over the bath, a sleek vanity beneath the hand basin and warming rails for towels.

Upstairs, the bright landing is lined with useful storage which frees up the floorspace in the bedrooms. At the back, the quiet second double has restful views over lower gardens and homes which stretch all the way to Race Hill, so you don’t feel hemmed in even though you’re just mins walk from the centre of our famous holiday resort. There’s a chic, central shower room and at the front, the principal bedroom has 4.02 x 3.33m (13’2 x 10’11) in which to unwind, designer wallpaper and a broad west bay to bathe the room in light.

Agent’s thoughts:

“A prime location by the park, you can walk to the cultural heart of the city, picturesque Lanes and the sea. This area has something for everyone with major employers, good schools and St James’s Street on the doorstep. Ideal as a luxury home, if you are seeking a high end investment it is convenient for the city and station with swift links to academic institutions.”

Owner’s secret:

“The apartment is always bright and inviting with plenty of space to spread out and relax in or to entertain- and friends like to come here before a day on the beach or night out along St. James’s Street or in the Lanes as we can walk there and back. Our neighbours are all super nice and long term as this is a very friendly area with an al fresco lifestyle, where you are never far from coffee or a glass of something cool in the evening, and there are open air farmer’s markets at the Pepper Pot or Kemptown Village every week. The location is fantastic close to the sea, the city and the station and Queen’s Park has an inclusive community whether you’re a family, a jogger, a tennis player or just like to feed the ducks and it hosts interesting arts events during festivals.”
