2 DOUBLE bedroom maisonette in Brighton s fashionable North Laine 3-minutes from Brighton Station Creative and cultural heart of the city Walking distance to the beach and green spaces Potential to add value with modernisation. Excellent school catchment

Set in the cultural heart of Brighton, less than 3-minutes on foot from Brighton Station, this deceptively spacious two-bedroom upper floor maisonette is ideal for creatives, professionals and commuters who love the energy of this vibrant coastal city. It is brimming with potential to add value in such a sought-after location as its well-proportioned rooms are versatile, bearing some original period features. While it has not outside space of its own, the beach is on your doorstep as are the green spaces of The Steine and Pavilion Gardens, and the countryside is just as short bus ride away.

Entering on the ground floor, your door from the communal hallway opens to an internal stairwell, rising to the main body of the flat. From the first-floor landing, the living room spans the front of the house with ample space for comfortable furnishings and is well-presented in a neutral palette of calico-stone walls with grey carpet underfoot, so you can move straight in with ease. A period fireplace takes centre stage, but is for decoration only and a tall sash bay window rises to the high ceiling, bringing in natural light from the west, providing the perfect spot for a small dining table looking out over the quiet street. The kitchen is easily accessible from here and has been well designed for the galley space to include plenty of storage and worktop areas to prepare a meal. While the gas hob and fan oven are integrated, space has been left for a freestanding undercounter fridge and a washing machine, while the gas central heating boiler is wall mounted.

Also on this floor, the bathroom is classic in white with a shower over the bath. Both the kitchen and bathroom are areas where new owners can put their own stamp on the place with some modernisation to add value. Stairs lead up to the bedrooms which are lovely and light double rooms sharing the same immaculate decoration of the living room below. They are the ideal size if sharing or for those looking for a home office/art studio/workspace as the natural light is lovely and it is peaceful being elevated within the building on the top floor. The front bedroom spans the front of the house so it is larger, but both rooms can house a double beds and freestanding furnishings without compromising on floor space. EPC: CCouncil Tax: C
