2 bedroom flat

Davigdor Road runs between fashionable Seven Dials and Hove Station so this two-bedroom apartment sits on some of the most prime land in the country. It is bright and spacious with high ceilings and a private balcony, plus it is brimming with potential to add considerable value with modernisation. It resides on the first floor of an attractive Edwardian house to the rear, so it is incredibly private and quiet inside with views looking out over neighbouring gardens. While it is peaceful here, it is also central with the city centre, Brighton Station and Brighton Beach all within easy walking distance. The schools are also exemplary, and St. Ann’s Well Gardens are on your doorstep, so it will suit professionals, small families and investors alike.

Why you’ll like it:
With the generous proportions and large picture windows so favoured in the Edwardian period, this first floor apartment feels bright and airy throughout with view overlooking lush neighbouring gardens. It spans the rear of the house, so it has sole access to the balcony which sits off the generous living room. The décor is nicely neutral to suit all styles of furnishing and there is ample space for both formal dining and relaxation. Nearby, the kitchen is galley style with a freestanding cooker and under counter fridge, leaving space for a washing machine within white units at both base and wall levels. It would be possible to modernise in here for very little while creating a great impact.
Along the hall, the bedrooms are both double, although the principal bedroom is more spacious with a wide bay window and which allows for extra bedroom furnishings without compromising on floor space. Both rooms are carpeted and are ready to move into – although they also offer the new owner a blank canvas to put their own stamp on the place.
All rooms have easy access to the bathroom which is smart and simply designed in white with wood panelling around the bath which has a shower over it.

Having been fully refurbished in recent weeks, the interior has a sleek finish in a palette of greys and whites to suit many types of furnishing. The communal hallway and stairwell have also been redecorated, and the plush carpet continues inside the apartment which is found to the left of the first-floor landing.
Just a few minutes up the hill, Seven Dials has managed to retain an air of ‘cool’ for many years with new and exciting shops and bars popping up all the time, and the beach is only ten minutes away. It is truly cosmopolitan, and that’s what attracts so many people here.
Agent’s thoughts:
This flat is a great size and has so much potential to add value in such a prestigious location.
