This compact one-bedroom apartment on Queens Road is presented as a straightforward landlord-to-landlord investment in a busy Brighton location. The flat occupies the second floor of a Victorian mid-terrace building and benefits from a long lease (circa 193 years) and an established rental occupancy — it will be sold with a tenant in situ, for investors only.
The layout is efficient: lounge/diner with a bay window, a double bedroom and a fitted kitchen. The property is small (approx. 399 sq ft) and reflects its age with solid brick walls (likely no cavity insulation) and a dated kitchen; these features limit appeal for owner-occupiers but keep refurbishment scope and costs clear for a buy-to-let plan.
Running costs and management points to note include electric underfloor heating, an average service charge around £1,600pa, and very low council tax. The property sits in a lively, amenity-rich stretch of Queens Road popular with students and professionals, which supports steady tenant demand despite the wider area’s higher deprivation and very high crime statistics.
This is a pragmatic purchase for a landlord seeking a centrally located, lease-secure rental asset with immediate income. Budget for minor modernisation and consider energy-improvement works if targeting higher rents or longer-term capital growth.
