2 bed flat for sale

Montpelier Place, Brighton BN1

Tucked away on an elegant residential street moments from the seafront, this beautifully renovated two-bedroom apartment sits within the highly sought-after Montpelier & Clifton Hill Conservation Area. Set within a handsome Grade II listed building, the flat has been thoughtfully updated throughout to create a calm, high-spec home that balances period elegance with contemporary comfort.

Entering through a generous hallway, the layout feels immediately welcoming and well considered, with each of the main rooms flowing naturally from the central space. The apartment was comprehensively renovated by the current owner, with significant investment in damp-proofing, new windows, bespoke joinery, lighting design and high-quality finishes throughout.

At the front of the property, the open-plan living, dining and kitchen space forms the social heart of the home. Three large south-facing bay windows flood the room with natural light and frame glimpses of the sea beyond, while a private balcony provides a lovely outdoor perch – perfect for morning coffee or an evening drink as the sun goes down.

The living area retains the elegance of the building’s heritage, centred around a striking marble fireplace and enhanced by chandelier lighting. Solar-powered blinds add both practicality and luxury, automatically rising and falling with therhythm of the day.

The kitchen, installed around four years ago, has been fully hand-crafted and designed with both form and function in mind. Integrated appliances sit neatly within sleek cabinetry, while the island features an Elica hob with built-in extractor, making it an ideal space for cooking while remaining part of the conversation.

The principal bedroom sits peacefully at the rear of the apartment, where a suspended ceiling with soft ambient lighting creates a calm, restful atmosphere. From here, there are lovely views over the communal garden, while the building’s thick flint walls help keep the room cool in summer and cosy through the winter months.

The second bedroom has been cleverly designed with a built-in double bed, desk and storage, allowing it to work equally well as a guest room, nursery or flexible home office.

The bathroom was completely redesigned and renovated by Pier1 Bathrooms in 2021. At its centre sits an Omnitub bath – ideal for long spa-like soaks – complemented by high-end fittings and carefully considered lighting that adds to theoverall sense of calm.

Practical details have also been thoughtfully considered throughout the renovation. A large loft space above the hallway and bathroom provides excellent additional storage, while to the rear of the building there is a well-maintained communal garden, looked after by a gardener. The building is also pet-friendly, making it a welcoming home for those with four-legged companions.
