Summary - 41 RUSSELL SQUARE BRIGHTON BN1 2EF
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Spacious period two-bed moments from the beach and shops.
Own street entrance for private access
A rare two-bedroom maisonette in the heart of Brighton, this period home offers generous living space and direct street access. The wide open-plan reception and large principal bedroom benefit from tall sash windows and high ceilings, creating a bright, characterful living environment close to the seafront and local amenities.
Outdoor space includes a private balcony overlooking Russell Square and a south-facing roof terrace that soaks up sun throughout the day. Practical ownership is strengthened by a long 150-year lease, share of freehold and no onward chain, making the purchase process straightforward for a first-time buyer.
Buyers should note some material considerations: the building is of solid brick construction with assumed limited wall insulation, there is a single bathroom, and average service charges are around £2,800 per year. The immediate area is a lively, cosmopolitan student neighbourhood and crime levels are reported as very high, which may affect quiet or security expectations.
Overall this property suits a buyer seeking a spacious, character-filled Brighton base near the beach, with scope to modernise and personalise where needed. Its combination of private outdoor areas, central location and share of freehold make it a practical long-term home or a high-demand city rental opportunity.
