Summary - 158a, Springfield Road BN1 6DG
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Spacious 624 sqft flat with private patio and long lease, ideal first buy.
Own street entrance, private front access
Light-filled one-bedroom flat with its own street entrance, located on popular Springfield Road. The lounge’s bay window and separate kitchen/breakfast room give a sense of space unusual for a one-bedroom, while a modern bathroom and private rear courtyard provide ready-to-live-in comfort. The property is offered chain free with a long 148-year lease and a modest ground rent of £100.
This home suits a first-time buyer seeking a central Brighton base with excellent transport links — London Road station is a short walk and Brighton mainline station is under a mile. The flat is also well placed for London Road’s cafes, bars and the Duke of York’s Picture House, and close to large green space at Preston Park.
As a Victorian mid-terrace building, there is period character and potential to increase value through sympathetic updating or conversion (attic potential noted for the building type). Buyers should note the walls are likely uninsulated (as-built granite/whinstone) and the property may require targeted insulation or energy improvements in future. The wider area is a busy, cosmopolitan neighbourhood with average crime levels and higher local deprivation indicators, which can affect long-term yield and resale dynamics.
Practical points: the flat is a sizeable 624 sq ft, chain-free and has very low council tax, making it affordable to run. Leasehold buyers should budget for standard leasehold costs and any additional fees for lease packs or surveys.
