Portland Place, Brighton, East Sussex BN2

**guide price £325,000 - £350,000**

Refined proportions, period detail and a flexible layout make this one bedroom apartment by the sea ideal as a home or holiday destination. Spanning the ground floor of a beautiful Grade II Regency mansion in Busby’s symmetrical masterpiece Portland Place, the beach is at one end of the terrace with bohemian Kemptown Village at the other. Budding designers will spot the possibilities to add value, the hospital’s a stroll and Brighton Station’s easy to reach by foot, bus or cab.

Hand crafted roses and delicate finials adorn the communal hallway, while the impressive ceiling height continues inside this inviting apartment, which spans the entire ground floor from east to west.

Boasting the glorious proportions synonymous with the Regency era, the grand reception room is bathed in afternoon sunlight. Through the twin, tall sash windows with their original shutters, you can enjoy a glimpse of the sea sparkling at the end of the terrace. There's ample space for both relaxing and entertaining, while the timeless Farrow & Ball colour palette enhances the elegant original frieze. Completing this exceptional room is a beautiful original working marble fireplace – an increasingly rare feature that creates a warm and inviting atmosphere throughout the seasons.

Leading along a window-lined hallway with generous understairs storage, the spacious kitchen/dining room is rich in character and traditionally styled to complement the heritage of the building.

Peacefully positioned, the generous principal bedroom benefits from bespoke fitted storage extending to the lofty ceiling. Interestingly, we're advised that the wall housing the wardrobes is a false partition, concealing an original working chimney behind. Nearby, the elegant bathroom features a shower over the bath, while the WC is conveniently separated – ideal when hosting guests.
