With its central location just a short walk from Brighton Station and the vibrant North Laine district, this property strikes a balance between urban convenience and peaceful living. Spanning three levels, the layout is both practical and inviting. The lower ground floor features a spacious kitchen/diner that opens into a separate reception room, enhanced by front and rear light wells that ensure an abundance of natural light. This level is perfect for entertaining or family gatherings, with ample storage and workspace in the kitchen, alongside a utility area for added convenience. On the raised ground floor, you will find a versatile double bedroom that can easily serve as an office or guest room, complemented by a full family bathroom equipped with an overhead shower. There’s also an additional room that offers potential for storage or could be transformed into a cozy reading nook.
