Victorian townhouse in Brighton’s fashionable Kemptown district, this stylish two-bedroom flat feels peaceful and is filled with natural light from east to west. It has been redecorated throughout using a contemporary palette, alongside oak flooring and streamlined fixtures and fittings, so you can move straight in or let it out immediately with ease.
The Victorian house has a classic layout with two apartments available on the lower ground and ground floors, each with two bedrooms. The third apartment is a maisonette spanning the top two floors with four bedrooms and three bathrooms, two of which are ensuite.
It is clear each space has been designed by those with a respect for period properties and an eye for interiors, creating spaces which are both fun and homely. Each flat enjoys the high ceilings of the era and has retained their sash windows and architraves which add character alongside streamlined kitchens and marble lined bathrooms and shower rooms.
Crisp white walls and blonde oak flooring features in each space, curating a sense of light and openness which invites entertaining and family time. They can be sold fully furnished with stylish pieces in keeping with the scheme, so you can let them out immediately if need be.
The first-floor flat is owned privately, but this purchase includes the Freehold of the building giving the new owners greater autonomy. AirBnB letting permitted in the lease, either as individual units or all three units together, which could be a very exciting prospect for some.
All current rental figures and AirBnB charges are available on request.
Vendor’s Comments:
“These properties have been a fantastic investment for me over the years. The tenanted flats have always been let by professionals who have kept them in fine condition, and the AirBnB ground floor flat is busy throughout the year as there are many festivals to be enjoyed in the city which has been a favoured holiday destination since the 19th Century. There is a vibrant energy within Kemptown and a real sense of community which is unique within the city. The beach is on your doorstep, and you can walk everywhere from here – I’m really sad to be letting them go.”
