2 bed flat for sale

Brittany Road, St. Leonards-On-Sea TN38

Set well back from the road behind a gated approach, this two-bedroom raised-ground-floor apartment forms part of a handsome red-brick villa on Brittany Road, bordering Markwick Gardens. Inside, a richly coloured entrance hall gives way to high ceilings, sash windows and a balance of blackened and whitewashed timber floors. To the rear, the kitchen and principal bedroom look south across established planting, while a veranda and private garden provide outdoor space to the front and rear.

Inside
Steps rise to the covered entrance veranda, where a gloss-black timber door opens into a shared vestibule. The apartment is entered through an adjacent charcoal-painted door, opening into a broad central hallway. Black looped sisal runs underfoot, set against dark walls and tobacco-brown architraves, skirtings and trims, creating a bold introduction to the interior.
A large reception room sits to the left, a space of grand proportions where blackened timber floorboards run beneath crisp white walls. Twin tall sash windows sit within a square bay, framing views across the private garden through established foliage. Traditional cast-iron radiators are balanced by an elegant Rouge Royal marble fireplace. The doorcase is particularly fine: An oversized panelled aedicule with a substantial moulded architrave and entablature.
At the rear the kitchen and dining room is arranged around deep-brown bespoke cabinetry topped in fresh white Corian. Cork style flooring runs beneath a large bay window, with space for dining in front. Timber doors open onto the south-facing veranda, edged by a decorative timber balustrade, with sheltered space for seating and potted planting
The principal bedroom is set adajacent, where a broad canted timber bay draws southerly light, with views across neighbouring gardens and mature trees. Whitewashed floorboards extend across the room, while a bank of fitted wardrobes lines one wall.
A family bathroom is finished with soft pink walls, black linoleum flooring and gloss-white tiling. A roll-top bath is paired with aged-brass fittings, a marble-topped vanity and an ornate Princess-style cast-iron radiator.
A second double bedroom is set to the side, with jet black walls, white-painted woodwork and a timber sash window drawing in westerly light. A separate WC completes the space, with plywood detailing and a Carrara marble-topped vanity.

Outside
The private garden extends to the front, where a central lawn is enclosed by layers of established planting. Acers, hydrangeas, roses and dwarf rhododendrons sit alongside a Victorian plum tree, black elder and ornamental grasses, creating a verdant and secluded setting.

Area
Well placed to enjoy the private green space of Markwick Gardens, whilst being a short walk from Kings Road and Norman Road, home to notable independent shops, restaurants, bars and galleries. The seafront and promenade are also nearby, with the colourful Hastings Old Town within walking distance. St Leonards mainline station is a short walk, providing a direct link into central London.
