Set within an elegant Regency mansion on Sillwood Place, this newly renovated ground-floor apartment combines period character with contemporary finish. The large 941 sq ft layout includes two double bedrooms, a dual-aspect living/dining room and a separate kitchen — arranged for immediate occupation or letting.
The flat has been run successfully as a holiday let and suits investors seeking strong location appeal: minutes from the seafront, Brighton station and Western Road’s shops and restaurants. A designated parking space is available for a small additional fee, a useful bonus where street permits have long waiting lists.
Buyers should note material considerations: the building is Grade I listed which can restrict alterations and may complicate permissions; the property is leasehold with a long lease (998 years) and an average service charge of about £2,200 per year. The surrounding area is a cosmopolitan, student-orientated neighbourhood with higher local crime statistics, which may affect some buyers’ preferences.
Overall this is a well-presented period apartment offering turnkey condition and strong rental potential, balanced by listed-building constraints and notable communal costs. It will particularly suit investors or buyers wanting a central, characterful Brighton base who accept conservation restrictions and the local urban context.
