Sit on the third floor of Embankment House, a contemporary one-bedroom apartment minutes from Brighton mainline station and the North Laine. The open-plan living space with a fully fitted kitchen and private balcony offers low-maintenance city living and plenty of natural light. Communal roof terraces, concierge and secure bicycle storage add practical extras for everyday convenience.
This home is well-suited to a first-time buyer seeking a compact, move-in-ready apartment or an investor after a city centre let. Key comfort features include electric underfloor heating throughout, a heat recovery system and fast broadband availability. The layout provides a double bedroom with built-in storage and an en-suite-accessible bathroom, making efficient use of the roughly 517 sq ft internal space.
Buyers should note a few practical considerations: the building’s EWS1 form is stated as available in August (check status before exchange), the property is leasehold (126 years remaining) and the half-yearly service charge is to be confirmed. Ground rent is small (£150 per year). The property sits in a high-crime neighbourhood statistically, so factor in security and insurance costs.
Overall, this chain-free apartment is an easy-to-live-in, transport-linked base in central Brighton with sensible communal amenities and clear short-term usability. It will suit someone prioritising location, convenience and low-maintenance urban living, while buyers who are budget-conscious should allow for service charges, potential energy costs from electric heating, and local area security considerations.
