Buckingham Road, Brighton, East Sussex BN1

Elegant Two-Bedroom Garden Apartment in Central Brighton

Description
Set on Buckingham Road in the very heart of Brighton, this peaceful two-bedroom lower ground floor apartment enjoys a wonderfully tucked-away position, close to the city’s energy yet quietly removed from it. Beautifully reimagined by the current owners, the home blends Victorian character with thoughtful modern updates, including a newly fitted kitchen, striking Crittall-style doors and a reconfigured private garden.

Accessed via steps down to its own private entrance, the apartment opens into a central hallway that runs the length of the home, creating a strong sense of flow and separation between living and sleeping spaces.

To the front sits a generous living room, filled with natural light from a large bay window and additional sash windows. A cast-iron fireplace with an elegant marble surround forms a charming focal point, complemented by classic cornicing that enhances the room’s period appeal.

Beyond the living room, a Crittall-style sliding door leads into the kitchen, arranged in a sleek galley layout. This carefully redesigned space features contemporary cabinetry, quartz work surfaces and integrated appliances, finished with subtle zellige-style tiling that adds texture and warmth. A further Crittall door opens directly onto the rear garden, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection.

The two bedrooms are positioned quietly at the rear of the apartment, both finished in calming neutral tones. The principal bedroom features engineered oak flooring and a cast-iron radiator, while the second bedroom is fitted with natural sisal flooring, making it ideal as a guest room or home office. A modern bathroom with soft, sand-toned tiling serves both bedrooms.

Outside Space
The private rear garden is a real highlight, larger than expected and thoughtfully arranged in an L-shape that wraps around the back of the building. Finished with elegant porcelain paving, it offers ample space for outdoor dining and entertaining.

The Area
The apartment is superbly located for enjoying Brighton’s most celebrated neighbourhoods. The North Laine and the Lanes are both close by, offering an eclectic mix of independent shops, vintage stores, cafes and cultural landmarks. Seven Dials is just a short walk away, known for its community feel, independent food stores, wine bars and popular eateries.

For those who enjoy the outdoors, the South Downs are within easy reach, providing expansive countryside walks and far-reaching views, while the historic town of Lewes offers further charm and heritage.

The area is also well served by highly regarded schools and excellent transport connections. Brighton station is nearby, providing direct services to London, and there is easy access to major road links connecting the wider south coast.

This is a beautifully balanced home, offering period character, modern comfort and a highly sought-after central Brighton location.

Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the size and potential of this property.
