Summary - 35 GLOUCESTER ROAD BRIGHTON BN1 4AQ
2 bed 2 bath Maisonette
Central maisonette with terrace and ground-floor let potential.
Chain-free; moments from Brighton Station and North Laine shops
No onward chain and central North Laine location make this rare maisonette an attractive purchase for investors or buyers seeking a city base with income potential. The property spans three floors and includes two double bedrooms, two bathrooms, a full-width kitchen/diner and a south-facing roof terrace, all within walking distance of Brighton Station and the area's independent shops and cafés.
The layout supports a live-and-let arrangement: a ground-floor double bedroom has its own en-suite wet room and private courtyard, suitable for short-term or longer lets. The principal bedroom on the first floor includes a walk-in wardrobe and full bathroom; the top-floor living room links to the sunny roof terrace with rooftop views over North Laine.
Practical points to note: the flat is leasehold (approximately 113 years remaining) with a small ground rent of £80 and is served by electric room heaters rather than a gas central system. The building dates from before 1900 and walls are assumed to be solid brick with no cavity insulation, so buyers should budget for potential thermal improvements and heating upgrades. The entrance is via a communal lobby shared with the ground-floor retail unit on a busy high street, and the local area records higher crime levels than average.
This property will suit an investor seeking a central, high-demand rental, or a buyer wanting a compact, characterful Brighton home with clear scope to add value through energy and heating improvements. Chain-free status and the flexible accommodation create straightforward options to occupy, let, or operate as home-and-income.
