Ideal for first time buyers, smaller families and landlords, this sunny two-bedroom flat offers an ideal investment opportunity. It is formed from the first floor of a Victorian townhouse which has been converted well to take full advantage of the space and light. Uniquely, it also boasts sole access to the rear garden due to the building’s position on the hill which faces east but is open to the south creating a real suntrap during summer. You are also only a short stroll to the city and both Brighton and London Road Stations, so you are perfectly positioned for the commute to London or the universities. With so many attractive features, and a Share of the Freehold, it is sure to be snapped up.

Why you’ll like it:

Vere Road sits in an attractive part of the city, within walking distance of the North Laine and Preston Park areas. The streets are tree-lined, characterised by Victorian townhouses which appeal to both families and professionals alike.

This garden flat will appeal to all as it has two bedrooms, a garden and is brimming with potential to add value by putting your own stamp on the place. The living room offers ample space for formal dining and relaxed seating, looking out over the peaceful street via tall sash windows. A period fireplace is for decoration only and useful shelves are built into the alcoves around the chimney breast for books and ornaments. Nearby, the kitchen comes well equipped with plenty of storage and an integrated oven with gas hob, leaving space for a washing machine and a tall fridge freezer.

Moving back through the flat, bedroom two is a sweet room looking out over the garden making it ideal as a peaceful space for working from home or as a child’s bedroom perhaps. The principal room sits at the far end of the flat with direct access to the garden. This almost doubles the social space of the flat during summer where you can sit in the sunshine all day for dining alfresco or simply sunbathing. It is perfectly low maintenance but once again, huge scope to add colour and scent with potted plants, climbing florals and herbs.

Agent’s thoughts:

This flat would be a brilliant investment for both home seekers and landlords due to its potential for modernisation and the excellent location.

Owner’s thoughts:

“I originally bought the flat for my daughter and granddaughter. They were very happy there and liked the area as it has a really lovely sense of community with lots of families and professionals, yet it is also incredibly central with the North Laine and Brighton Station just few minutes away. When they moved on, I rented it out successfully for many years. It is now time for me to move on too.”
