## Description

why you'll like it 

Combining period perfection with contemporary style, this spacious apartment’s ready to move into. The large living room offers sophisticated, open plan living and it’s full of sunlight streaming through the floor to ceiling windows which open to a sunny balcony where you can enjoy the sea sparkling at the end of the street. There’s ample space to relax or entertain, and tucked behind a sociable breakfast bar, painted kitchen units have granite work surfaces and it’s ready for use with an integrated gas hob, electric oven, fridge, freezer and dishwasher.

The peaceful master bedroom has refined proportions, silver grey carpet and is painted in the restful tones of Farrow & Ball, and there’s a chic en suite shower room. Down a few steps, the second bedroom’s also a good size, so great for sharer’s. Quiet and private with garden views, fitted wardrobes are already in place. Just across the hall, a glamorous bathroom is lined in marble and has all you need including storage, discreet plumbing for a washing machine and a dual head shower above the bath.

the lifestyle

Close to the beach, Kemptown Village is on the doorstep with a bohemian atmosphere and independent cafés, restaurants and shops which include a butcher, deli, bookstore and grocers as well as a chemist and post office. The cinemas, health club and harbourside restaurants of the Marina are within walking distance, and the bustling central district and cultural heart of the city are easy to reach on foot, by bus or by cab. Near to good schools including award winning Brighton College, a park, golf course and access to the Downs are close by. Ideal for professionals, Kemptown hosts the law courts and hospital and for those who need to travel, the mainline station with its fast links to Gatwick (30mins) and London (55mins) is about 15 by bus and access to the M23’s swift.

bear in mind

Although there’s no lift, the views from the balcony are well worth the short climb.
