Summary - First Floor Flat, 12 Brunswick Square BN3 1EH
3 bed 3 bath Flat
Spacious period home with balcony sea views and long lease.
Grade I listed period apartment with original corniced ceilings and fireplace
Set on the first floor of a Grade I listed mid-terrace on Brunswick Square, this three-bedroom apartment combines period grandeur with sea views and contemporary comfort. The open-plan kitchen/lounge/diner is light-filled thanks to soaring sash bay windows and leads onto a west-facing cast-iron balcony with direct views across the square and glimpses of the sea. Original features — high corniced ceilings, a period fireplace and basket-weave woodblock flooring — give the home strong character while neutral decor makes the rooms move-in ready.
The layout spans split levels: a primary bedroom suite with ensuite, a quietly positioned lower-level double with an adjacent spa-style bathroom, and a third bedroom with nearby shower room. Practical details include double glazing, mains gas central heating and a long 999-year lease on completion. Local amenities are excellent — promenade, shops, cafés and top independent schools are within easy reach — making this an appealing location for families seeking central, seaside living.
Buyers should note material considerations: the Grade I listing will restrict alterations and may complicate refurbishment, the building’s solid brick construction likely lacks modern cavity insulation, and the EPC is rated D. Annual service charges average £4,000 and council tax sits above average. The area records above-average crime; purchasers should carry out their own checks and factor any security or maintenance costs into plans.
Overall, the flat suits buyers who value period detail, generous living space and a prime square-side location with sea views, while accepting conservation constraints and running costs. It offers strong lifestyle appeal and potential to personalise within the limits of listed status.
