Why you’ll like it:
The tree-lined roads south of Fiveways have been attracting people to live here for many years now. Florence Road, in particular, has exceptional kerb appeal characterised by grand Victorian homes abundant with architectural detailing, sitting back from the road behind well-tended gardens and drives. While many remain one dwelling, this house has been divided into apartments, with this one enjoying a peaceful position to the rear of the first floor.

Once inside, it is clear this has been a well-designed conversion with a fine quality finish during renovation. Freshly painted walls in white and sage have been paired with light-grey carpet and the open plan kitchen has grey units topped with solid oak. The decoration is modern yet homely and will suit all types of furnishing. There is ample space for formal dining – at the breakfast bar or at a table, which would be ideally placed by the window so you can look out over the leafy neighbouring gardens as you eat. Elsewhere there is space for relaxation, and the kitchen is well-equipped with appliances.

Nearby, the bedroom also looks out over the green environs of neighbouring trees and gardens which are joy to wake up to each day. Cleverly designed with built-in storage to include full height wardrobes and open hanging space with shelving, the floor space is maximised.

Conveniently, the bathroom is next door with a gleaming white suite and a shower over the bath. A streamlined vanity unit sits below the basin for your toiletries to ensure the room remains clutter free.

Agent’s thoughts:
This flat is a real gem and offers excellent value for such a highly sought-after location. Perfect as an investment property or for first-time buyers.

Owner’s thoughts:
“We love how quiet this road is for such a central location. You can walk to the North Laine or Brighton Station in 10 minutes, and Preston Park is a joy in the summer, so you don’t miss having a garden of your own.”

Where it is
Shops: Local 2 min walk, North Laines 10 min walk
Station: London Road 1 min walk Brighton Station 11 min walk

Closest Schools:

Private: Brighton College, Windlesham Prep.<br /><br />This is a lovely apartment in a popular location which is well served for shops, parks and schools. There are plenty of local green spaces, and great transport links, but you are also only a short walk from everything this vibrant coastal city has to offer. The A23 and stations are also within easy reach, for those requiring fast links to the universities, Gatwick or London on a daily or weekly basis.
