High on the 16th floor, this 970 sq ft two-bedroom apartment delivers exceptional southerly sea views and a south-west facing balcony — a clear headline feature for buyers seeking coastal panorama and light. The layout includes two double bedrooms (one with en-suite and walk-in wardrobe), a large living room with floor-to-ceiling windows, a separate modern kitchen and useful corridor storage. The long lease (c.153 years) and no onward chain simplify purchase for investors or owner-occupiers.
Positioned within a central, mixed-use area close to Brighton seafront, Churchill Square and the mainline station, the flat suits commuting, short-term lettings or longer-term rentals to students and young professionals. The apartment is presented to a good standard with integrated kitchen appliances and abundant natural light; the footprint is generous for a two-bedroom city flat.
Buyers should note material context: the block dates from the 1950s–1960s and has double glazing installed before 2002; walls are cavity as built with no added insulation assumed. Heating is warm-air mains gas. The immediate neighbourhood is classified as a cosmopolitan, multicultural student area with a very high local crime score and higher area deprivation — factors that will shape rental market and insurance/management considerations.
Overall this is a straightforward, high-floor apartment with strong sea-view appeal and a long lease. It will suit investors targeting central Brighton rental demand or buyers prioritising views and transport links, though prospects should budget for future energy-efficiency upgrades and consider the implications of the local crime profile.
