Set over the top two floors of a handsome Victorian terrace, this three-bedroom maisonette offers generous, well-proportioned rooms and a rare south-facing roof terrace. The principal bedroom opens onto the terrace, giving direct sun and open outlooks — an excellent spot for entertaining or relaxing outdoors without leaving the flat. The layout and room sizes suit first-time buyers wanting space to grow, sharers, or those targeting high-end lettings in Kemptown.
Practical benefits include two bathrooms, a bright kitchen-dining room, and a share of freehold. The property retains period features such as high ceilings, bay windows and decorative cornicing, which add character and appeal. Council tax is low and transport links are good for Brighton, with the seafront, village shops and hospitals within easy walking distance.
Buyers should be aware of a few material negatives: the building’s original stone walls are assumed uninsulated and the double glazing dates from before 2002, so energy performance may be poor and further insulation or upgrades could be needed. The neighbourhood is described as deprived with a high local crime rate, which may affect suitability for some purchasers and could influence insurance and rental demand.
Practical parking is on-street with Permit Zone C currently showing no waiting list, but there is no private parking. Overall, this is a spacious, characterful maisonette in a desirable, seaside-focused pocket of Brighton that rewards sympathetic updating and offers strong lifestyle benefits for buyers seeking proximity to the beach and village amenities.
