Why you’ll like it:

This striking renovation of a Regency first floor apartment is immediately impressive. The beautiful original features have been blended with contemporary styling to create a really sophisticated home. The floor to ceiling windows in the living room not only fill the room with light, but form a stunning centerpiece to the room, and with the modern kitchen conveniently linked, you can entertain in here, in style. The appliances have been integrated so you can move straight in with ease, and should you not feel like cooking, there are a wealth of fashionable restaurants and pubs on Western Road to be enjoyed. There are two double bedrooms; ideal for professional sharers who may need the easy commute to Brighton Station, and the master has a window to mirror that of the living room - a real show stopper. The bathroom is also on trend with a chunky white suite and charcoal tiling, leaving this apartment feeling luxurious and one not to be missed.
