Summary - Lower Rock Gardens BN2 1PG
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Moments from the beach, stylish finish, private patio and long boiler warranty.
Recently renovated to a high standard throughout
Located on Lower Rock Gardens, this lower-ground one-bedroom flat is newly renovated and offered with a 15-year warranty on a boiler installed in 2022. The layout gives clear separation between living and sleeping areas and includes a contemporary kitchen, modern bathroom and a small private patio — attractive features for short-term or longer-term lettings by the sea.
The building is a period terraced property facing the promenade, moments from Brighton Beach and the pier. Share of freehold and c.95 years remaining on the lease provide tenure stability. The flat’s finish, compact footprint (c.580–594 sq ft) and coastal location support strong rental demand, particularly from students and young professionals who value proximity to transport, shops and nightlife.
Buyers should note material local downsides: the neighbourhood is classified as a cosmopolitan, multicultural student area with very high recorded crime and above-average deprivation. The flat is lower-ground so natural light is more limited than upper floors. Constructed with solid brick walls (likely no cavity insulation) and double glazing installed before 2002 — further insulation or upgrades may be desirable.
Practical running costs are straightforward: mains gas heating with radiators, average broadband speeds, excellent mobile signal, and a service charge around £1,200. Council tax is very cheap, which helps net rental yields. Overall this is a turnkey, seaside-positioned unit suitable for investors or a single occupant seeking a stylish base close to Brighton’s attractions, but buyers should factor in location-related risks and potential retrofit costs.
