Located in the heart of Brighton Marina Village, this chain-free one-bedroom apartment offers bright, marina-facing living with a west-facing balcony. The flat spans approximately 627 sq ft (58.3 sq m), has a long lease (129 years remaining) and comes with a secure allocated parking space and 24-hour marina security — strong practical benefits for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors.
The accommodation is presented in neutral contemporary style with a generous bedroom, a well-proportioned kitchen, living room with arched window and direct access to the balcony. Its compact, efficient layout suits a single occupant or couple, and the apartment’s size and marina location support good rental demand and lifestyle appeal.
Buyers should note the running costs: an average service charge of £2,240 and a ground rent of £150 per year. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than gas central heating, which can mean higher running costs. There is no private garden — outdoor space is limited to the small balcony and communal courtyard.
The flat’s location is a major draw: immediate access to bars, restaurants, cafes, shops and frequent bus links into Brighton city centre. The mixed-use development and nearby commercial activity create a lively environment. However, the area records higher-than-average crime levels, which prospective buyers should consider alongside the property’s other strengths.
