About this listing

A beautifully proportioned garden apartment set within a substantial Victorian terrace on Ditchling Rise, combining generous period rooms, direct access to outside space and an exceptionally convenient Brighton location. Occupying the ground floor, the apartment has an easy, well-balanced layout, with a wide bay-fronted living/dining room to the front, a separate double bedroom, bathroom and kitchen to the rear. The interiors retain much of their period character, with high ceilings, decorative cornicing, tall skirting boards and original fireplaces, giving the flat a strong sense of charm and proportion. The living room sits to the front of the apartment and is a particularly well-proportioned room, arranged around a wide bay window which brings in natural light and gives the space a strong sense of volume. There is ample room for both seating and dining, while the original fireplace, picture rail and ceiling height add character and definition. The bedroom is positioned towards the centre of the apartment and is a comfortable double, with a rear-facing window and an original fireplace. It is a calm and practical room, set away from the street and large enough for freestanding furniture. To the rear, the kitchen is arranged with white cabinetry, metro-style tiling and dark worktops, with double doors opening directly out to the garden. This connection to the outside is a real strength of the apartment, offering a natural extension of the living space and a valuable feature in such a central location. The generous garden is walled and established, with mature planting, brick boundaries and space for outdoor seating. It has the feel of a secluded city garden; private, enclosed and full of potential, whether used simply as a quiet place to sit or reimagined into a more considered courtyard-style space. The bathroom is fitted with a white suite including a bath with shower over, WC and pedestal basin. Ditchling Rise is ideally situated just a short walk from Preston Park, which offers wide-open green spaces, tennis courts, a children's playground, a velodrome, and two cafés - The Rotunda and The Chalet. The Duke of York's Picturehouse, Brighton's iconic independent cinema, is moments away at Preston Circus. Nearby London Road offers access to the Open Market, home to independent shops, artist studios, and food stalls. There are plenty of local pubs and restaurants within walking distance, including The Joker, The Argyle Arms, The Open House, Signalman, Jolly Brewer, Preston Park Tavern, and The Roundhill - an all-vegan kitchen known for its award-winning plant-based meals. Brighton station is a short walk away, offering direct services to London Bridge and Victoria in under an hour. London Road station, even closer, provides connections to Lewes and beyond. Regular bus routes (including the 5, 5A, and 5B) offer easy access into the city centre. Council Tax Band: A Tenure: Leasehold (995 years) Ground Rent: £0 per year Service Charge: £750 per year The lease provides for each flat owner to hold a share in the building's management company.
