Summary - Chichester Place, Brighton BN2 1FF
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Chain-free, spacious two-bedroom maisonette — ideal first-time buy or sharer near seafront and hospital.
Chain-free with new 999-year lease and share of the freehold
Spacious two-bedroom maisonette arranged over two floors, offered chain-free with a new 999-year lease and a share of the freehold. High ceilings and bay windows retain attractive Victorian character while rooms are generous for the size (approximately 931 sq ft), making the layout practical for first-time buyers or sharers. Its central BN2 location gives easy access to commuter links, the seafront, local shops and the Royal Sussex Hospital.
There are clear positives for an investor or buyer seeking rental income: good broadband and mobile signal, popular nearby amenities, and flexible two-floor accommodation suiting sharers. The long lease and share of freehold reduce typical leasehold headaches and add security for mortgage lenders.
Buyers should note important drawbacks: the property sits in a high-crime, very deprived area which may affect long-term desirability and rental values. The building is an older Victorian construction with solid brick walls and assumed no insulation, so heating bills and retrofit costs could be higher. Decor is dated and some updating is likely; services and appliances have not been tested so a buyer should commission a survey. Additional leasehold admin costs (eg. lease packs) may apply.
