Summary - 56 Roundhill Crescent BN2 3FR
3 bed 1 bath Maisonette
Unique city retreat with loft and excellent transport links.
Roof terrace with panoramic sea views
A distinctive townhouse-style maisonette arranged over multiple floors, this freehold property offers a rare roof terrace with panoramic sea views and a useful loft/attic room. The living room and kitchen breakfast room are bright and well laid out, creating a comfortable 970 sq ft of living space ideal for professionals or investors seeking a city-base near Brighton’s attractions. Off-street parking plus permit parking in Zone J add practical convenience.
The home is well presented with contemporary fixtures, double glazing installed post-2002 and mains gas heating to radiators. Both principal bedrooms are comfortable doubles and the shower room is finished to a high standard. The crowning feature is the electronically operated glazed roof that opens onto the terrace — a standout entertaining spot with elevated city and sea vistas.
Buyers should note material facts plainly: the property will be sold at auction, so purchase terms differ from private treaty sales. The plot is very small and the attic has limited head height in places, restricting full-time bedroom use. Records suggest cavity wall construction without added insulation, so further thermal upgrades may be desirable. Crime levels in the immediate area are recorded as very high, which may affect insurance and security considerations.
Overall this maisonette suits those who prioritise location, views and a unique roof terrace over a large garden. It offers good rental or holiday-let potential, but purchasers should factor in auction timelines, potential retrofit costs, and local safety considerations before bidding.
