Why you’ll like it

Positioned on an elevated spot in Wakefield Road, within one of Brighton’s famous conservation areas, this apartment benefits from natural light and stunning open views across Brighton from the private rear terrace and landscaped garden. Recently refurbished and renovated with a stylish, modern boutique interior, the flat is a perfect fit for a first-time buyer looking for a “turn-key” home to enjoy with space to work from home when needed and to ultimately relax in. It also remains wonderfully private with its own street entrance, accessed down a few stone steps. The split-level layout at the rear enhances the sense of space and flow throughout.

Outside, at the front entrance, there’s a well-kept area with outside lighting, an understairs cupboard to the side, and a suitable spot to store a bike if required.

Upon entry to the hallway, the living room to the right features fresh, neutral décor and modern lighting, complementing the natural light that streams in through the westerly-facing window. While it faces the front, its positioning ensures complete privacy, making it a calm and comfortable space for dining, working, or relaxing.

Across the hallway, the shower room continues the high-quality aesthetic with contemporary stone-effect tiling and a rainfall boutique shower cubicle, along with a modern sink and low-level WC beneath the window to the front.

To the rear of the flat, the bedroom enjoys a peaceful position and generous proportions, overlooking the rear garden. It has been thoughtfully redecorated to feel both tranquil and sophisticated, with a wide bay window drawing in the morning light and offering views across Brighton. There’s ample space for a king-sized bed alongside freestanding furniture, and the bay area currently serves as a practical and attractive home office space — ideal for working from home or study.

A few steps down, at the rear of the hallway with boutique-style lighting, the kitchen has been beautifully updated with sleek modern cabinetry and high-spec finishes that maximise both style and function. There’s an integrated oven and hob, an integrated slimline dishwasher, and space to the side for a fridge/freezer, along with ample storage and worktop space to suit modern living. A clever design feature is located in the main hallway - a utility cupboard housing space and plumbing for a washing machine - freeing up more room in the kitchen to create a breakfast bar area, with a window overlooking the rear terrace and garden.

Outside to the rear is what can only be described as a view to die for!

First, a raised decked terrace provides the perfect spot for early morning coffee, a late evening glass of wine, or a summer barbecue with friends. This then leads down to a central lawned area with enclosed flower borders. Both spaces enjoy far-reaching rooftop views across to the east and down to the south of Brighton, receiving sunshine for much of the day. The garden is delightfully low maintenance, with cleverly designed outside lighting.

Agent’s thoughts
Perfect for professionals looking for that ‘something special’ with a private garden, and wanting modern living close to the city, beach, and excellent transport links.

Owner’s thoughts
“I bought this apartment for my son and personally spent a lot of love, care, and attention in getting it designed and refurbished to a high spec, including having the lease extended and the whole outside of the building recently redecorated. Due to unforeseen circumstances, I am now looking to find a buyer who will love and appreciate the flat for what it was intended - and especially enjoy the wow-factor view to the rear!”
