Tucked away within the leafy environs of Preston Village stands Centenary House; an attractive development of apartments with parking, surrounded by greenery. This exceptionally well-presented two-bedroom property is unique within the building as it has its own street entrance on the ground floor, alongside a private garage and a sunny south facing garden.

With beautiful proportions and wide picture windows to fill it with natural light, this apartment is both warm and airy, and the décor throughout is immaculate and modern. With two almost equally sized bedrooms, this apartment will appeal to professional sharers who may find the proximity of Preston Park’s commuter station ideal. For families, the local schools are amongst the best in the city, and there is plenty to entertain little ones nearby with Preston Park on your doorstep. It is also within easy walking distance of the North Laine Shopping district and there are several local eateries and gastropubs nearby too.

Why you’ll like it:
Designed and built in keeping with historic character of the area, Centenary House echoes the lines of the Victorian mansions lining Preston Road; sitting behind the original border walls with canted bay and pitched dormer windows on its roofline. Its sash windows are double glazed, and its apartments have well-proportioned rooms with plenty of built-in storage.

You enter through a tall, secure gate on Cumberland Road which opens to the private walled garden. It is wonderfully low maintenance as a paved space, yet there are border flower beds which add colour and scent throughout the year. South-facing, it enjoys sunshine right through the day and is large enough for summer gatherings or relaxing in the sun’s rays at the weekend.

Stepping in through the flat’s private entrance, you are welcomed into a long corridor with a nook for hanging coats. It is clearly a well-maintained home with a smart yet stylish neutral décor with pale wood flooring and buttermilk walls, so you can add your own flair with art and furnishings.

First to the right, the living room is dual aspect to the south and east so natural light streams in through its double-glazed windows. There is ample space for comfortable furnishings and a dining table and chairs, and the kitchen is conveniently close by. White Shaker style cabinets offer a wealth of storage alongside an integrated fridge freezer, washing machine, electric oven and gas hob, plus the sink has been thoughtfully placed below the window which has a leafy outlook.

Bedroom two is a lovely room with space for freestanding furnishings, while the principal room is slightly larger, but both share the same immaculate finish as elsewhere. All rooms have easy access to the bathroom which has again been very well-maintained by the current owners giving it a gleaming white bath suite with a shower over it and a mirrored cabinet for toiletries.

Agent’s thoughts:
Smart, spacious and south facing – there are many benefits to living here, and you can move straight in or let it out immediately with ease. It is certainly a sound investment in a fantastic location.

Owner’s thoughts:
“We love the sense of community here is Preston Village. You have so much on your doorstep, yet you can jump on the train into Central Brighton and be staring at the sea within five minutes too.”
