Set within the sought-after North Laine conservation area, this spacious two-bedroom maisonette in Argus Lofts blends Victorian industrial character with roomy, adaptable living. The former 1885 printing works was sensitively converted in 2003, retaining high ceilings, exposed original brickwork and large arched windows that flood the open-plan living space with light.
Arranged over the second and third floors and extending to about 111 sqm (1,195 sqft), the layout offers two double bedrooms and two bathrooms — a practical arrangement for sharers, couples or small families. The principal bedroom showcases the building’s heritage with exposed brick and vaulted ceilings, while the open-plan kitchen/living area provides generous entertaining and everyday living space.
Practical features include a passenger lift and an exceptionally long lease (975 years). Note the property is all-electric with room heaters rather than gas central heating, which may influence running costs and heating comfort preferences. The building has solid brick walls with internal insulation and double glazing installed post-2002.
Location is a major draw: independent shops, cafés, restaurants and cultural attractions are on the doorstep, with Brighton station and the seafront within easy reach. Be aware the immediate area is described as a cosmopolitan student neighbourhood with higher local crime statistics and signs of area deprivation; this can mean lively street life but also potential noise and security considerations. Council tax is above average.
