This ground-floor two-bedroom flat on Milner Road offers a rare combination of period charm and recent upgrades, making it an attractive entry point to Brighton. The accommodation was refurbished in 2020 and benefits from a refitted kitchen and bathroom, a new Worcester combi boiler and an upgraded electric consumer unit. A private entrance and a south-facing rear garden add practical appeal for everyday living and summer evenings.
Internally the layout is open-plan, creating a bright, dual-aspect living, dining and kitchen space that maximises the home’s 664 sq ft footprint. Both bedrooms are doubles and there is generous built-in storage including a walk-in wardrobe to the rear bedroom. The property is sold as a 50% share of freehold with a very long lease (994 years), giving clear tenure advantages over a typical leasehold flat.
Buyers should note the local context: the property sits in a mixed student and professional neighbourhood and the wider area is classified as relatively deprived. Crime is average and the area will particularly suit first-time buyers, professionals and investors seeking rental demand from nearby universities. The home is ready to move into but scope remains to personalise finishes or reconfigure storage if desired.
Overall, this flat is a practical, low-maintenance city home with genuine value drivers — private outside space, recent mechanical and electrical improvements, long lease and share of freehold — balanced against its urban setting and modest footprint.
