Large two-bedroom mansion flat with park views and share of freehold in Seven Dials.

Large first-floor mansion flat: approx. 841–842 sq ft of living space
High ceilings and original period features, full-height sash windows
Separate kitchen/breakfast room; practical rear fire-escape access
Share of freehold, long lease and chain-free sale for smoother purchase
Solid-brick walls likely uninsulated — potential retrofit needed
Very slow broadband speeds; not suitable for heavy remote work without upgrade

Set on the first floor of a handsome Victorian terrace in Seven Dials, this 2-bedroom mansion flat combines generous room sizes with classic period detail. The living room stretches to almost 19ft with three full-height sash windows and a private balcony overlooking Lilwhites Ground, offering a calm park aspect in the heart of Brighton.
The layout suits commuters and city-focused buyers: a separate kitchen/breakfast room, two well-proportioned bedrooms and a single family bathroom provide comfortable daily living. Practical benefits include gas central heating, double glazing fitted since 2002, a long lease with a share of the freehold and a chain-free sale—useful for a swift purchase.
Be clear about likely upgrade costs: the building’s solid-brick walls are assumed uninsulated, and broadband is reported very slow, so buyers who need fast home internet or higher energy efficiency should factor retrofit works into their budget. There is only one bathroom and the property follows a linear layout, which may be less suited to those needing en-suite facilities or open-plan living.
Position is a major asset: Seven Dials’ cafés, shops and parks are on the doorstep and Brighton mainline station is within easy walking distance, making this an attractive option for professionals, couples and buyers seeking a spacious, characterful home near transport links.
