Clifton Hill remains one of the most prestigious addresses in the city: Characterised by some stunning examples of Regency and Victorian architecture, sitting atop the hill looking down to the sea; within easy walking distance of the city and all its delights. For somewhere so central, it is wonderfully peaceful, as it is nicely tucked away off the beaten track, between Seven Dials and Western Road.

This apartment has a lovely aspect on the second floor of a townhouse close to the top of the hill, so it has far-reaching views from the living room across the rooftops opposite towards Brighton Racecourse and the South Downs National Park.

Upon entry, your eye is immediately drawn to the living room as the easterly elevation is almost completely open with wide bay sash windows bringing in a wealth of natural light. This curve offers the perfect spot for a dining table or sofa from which you can enjoy the views. Wood floors are sanded and varnished back to their former glory in warmed honey tones and the original features have been retained within the skirtings, picture rails, cornices and fireplace. There is ample space for comfortable furnishings and a room this size offers itself to entertaining.

Double doors open to the kitchen, which is a galley shape, but the scale of the building allows for defined areas to cook and dine alongside the window. There is plenty of storage in modern units, while space has been left for a cooker, washing machine, fridge and freezer.

Peacefully positioned to the rear of the building, the bedroom is a fine size double room with wood floors and fresh white walls to suit all styles of modern furnishing. Facing west, warm light filters in during the afternoon and the window is double glazed to ensure a warm and restful night’s sleep. The bathroom is conveniently close by with a classic décor in white with a shower over the bath.<br /><br />This flat is perfectly situated in a popular area with lots of local shops and the beach on your doorstep. The city centre shopping districts and parks are also within easy reach, and it also offers easy access to Brighton Station which has direct and fast links to the airports and London.
