1 bed flat for sale

Shaftesbury Road, Brighton BN1

Description

Knight & knoxley are delighted to present this beautiful west-facing garden apartment with its own entrance. Located in a fabulous location on tree-lined Shaftesbury Road. Close to city centre and Preston Park.

The flat forms part of a three-storey, bay-fronted Victorian property at the southern end of Shaftesbury Road. Steps from the road lead down to a patio area in front of the private entrance to the flat. Once inside, you will find a generous double bedroom at the front of the property with a three-sash bay window overlooking the front patio. Continuing down the hall, you reach the living room, which spans the full width of the property and is a fantastic space with sliding doors onto the rear garden. Beyond is the kitchen, which has a good run of work surfaces, space for a freestanding cooker, white units, and a white tiled splashback. A window to the side brings in plenty of natural light, and there is a glazed door to the patio. Outside, the patio has lovely terracotta tiles and is completely secluded, making it the perfect space for outdoor dining in the summer months. Finally, the bathroom has a white suite and white tiled walls, with a large-format neutral floor tile. There is a shower over the bath.

Shaftesbury Road is moments from Preston Circus, known by most as home to The Duke of York's Picturehouse, Brighton's much-loved cinema, which screens a variety of films throughout the week. A short stroll down London Road will bring you to the vibrant Open Market, which is home to independent shops, artists' studios, and plaza traders, with stalls selling handmade arts and crafts and delicious food. There are great local pubs and restaurants, including the Open House, Signalman, The Joker, The Hare and Hounds, The World's End, and the Roundhill, all close by, to name but a few! The Roundhill is notable for its vegan kitchen, which serves award-winning plant-based meals. The property is ideally located for commuters, as Brighton Mainline station is a short walk away, with fast services to London Bridge and Victoria, with journey times of under an hour. London Road station, even closer, has services to Lewes and beyond. Several bus routes will take you straight into town, including the 5,5A, and 5B. Downs Infant and Junior schools are a ten-minute walk, both rated outstanding by Ofsted. Preston Park, to the north, has large open spaces, a children's playground, tennis courts, a velodrome, and two cafés-the Rotunda Café and the Chalet Café-where you can grab a coffee and a bite to eat.
