This newly refurbished two-bedroom maisonette sits on vibrant Preston Street, a short walk from Brighton seafront. The accommodation has been updated throughout with a contemporary kitchen, smart-controlled radiators, new double glazing and improved insulation on the first floor — ideal for buyers wanting a move-in-ready urban home.
The layout offers a bright living room with a Victorian bay window and high ceilings, two double bedrooms upstairs plus useful loft storage. At about 669 sq ft the rooms are average-sized for a city-centre property and the extended lease (168 years) and chain-free sale make purchase straightforward.
Be clear-eyed about a few material points: the building is solid brick and pre-1900 construction, with reports of potential damp in the bay-window area. Heating is electric room heaters rather than a gas central system, and the neighbourhood has a very high recorded crime level and higher area deprivation than average. These factors will influence running costs, insurance and suitability depending on your needs.
For a first-time buyer or investor seeking an updated central Brighton flat with long lease security and excellent local amenities, this property presents strong ready-to-live-in appeal, but factor in the local crime statistics and the electric heating when assessing overall cost and comfort.
