Beautifully presented, this stylish one-bedroom apartment is formed from the ground floor of a mid-19th Century townhouse on one of the city’s oldest squares. With high ceilings and generous proportions, it is deceptively spacious, and holding a unique corner position, it is incredibly peaceful. While superbly central; Clarence Square is tucked away behind the main shopping thoroughfare, just minutes from the beach and Brighton Station, so you can access all the city’s delights on foot. It also boasts manicured gardens within its enclosure which also form a lovely view from the living room while providing a tranquil outside area during the summer. This is an exceptional location in which to live, amid everything this thriving coastal city has to offer, so it is sure to attract many.

Why you’ll like it:
From the early years of the 19th Century, Brighton had become one of the most fashionable places to live in the country. Wealthy Londoners flocked to live here for the medicinal benefits of ‘sea-swimming’ and it was well known as a town for living the high life. Not much has changed in almost two centuries, and people still travel from far and wide visit – often staying permanently.
Clarence Square began construction in 1820 on the north side, but the gracious townhouses to the south side were not complete until 1840, and therefore have classically Victorian facades with canted bay windows and neat architectural details.
Once inside, there is a large entrance vestibule for all residents of the building, where bikes, buggies and boots can be left without cluttering up the communal hallways or apartments. This flat is clearly numbered to the right, and from the moment you enter, it is clear it has been beautifully modernised and is far more spacious than you expect.
Your eye is immediately drawn to the generous living and dining room to the front of the property, where the ceiling soars and beautiful period detail is evident. The floorboards have been brought back to their original grandeur and white washed to brighten the room further and have been paired with white plantation shutters on the wide bay window. A grand fireplace takes centre stage; now fitted with a modern wood burning stove which warms the room perfectly during winter, where you can cosy up on the sofa or enjoy formal dining at the table.
Next door, the bedroom almost mirrors the living room in scale and style, and even with a king size bed and several pieces of bedroom furniture, the floor space is not compromised. The tall sash window has again been adorned with shutters and has also been frosted for privacy.
Wooden floors flow along the corridor, past deep under stair storage, and into the kitchen to the rear of the building. This has stylish units with bespoke handles and space for freestanding appliances, although the fridge freezer has been integrated for you. Open shelving and metro brick tiling give a modern take on a period style, which is continued into the bathroom. In here, a freestanding bathtub and wet room shower have been fitted with traditional attachments to include a rainfall showerhead, and with a monochrome palette, you can add a pop of colour with toiletries and towels.<br /><br />This spacious ground floor flat is beautifully situated in a popular area with lots of local shops and the beach nearby. The city centre shopping districts and parks are also within easy reach, and this home also offers easy access to Brighton Station which has direct and fast links to the airports and London.
