1 bedroom apartment for sale
Key information
Property description & features
- Tenure: Leasehold (104 years remaining)
A fantastic opportunity to buy a one bedroom apartment in Old College House, the absolutely stunning, period building that stands on Richmond Terrace.
Richmond Terrace is directly opposite The Level, which has a children’s play area and a skate-park. This extremely central location is ideal for anyone who wants to live in the heart of Brighton. Shops, cafés, bars, restaurants and all of Brighton’s cultural attractions including Brighton Pavilion, Brighton Dome, The Theatre Royal and Brighton Museum, are a short stroll away, and bus services run from close by, to locations all over the city. Brighton Station is a fifteen minute walk.
This wonderful, ornate, red-brick building, was built in 1895, to house the college that eventually became known as Brighton College of Technology. Impressive as it is from the outside, you are unlikely to be prepared for the full grandeur of the communal entrance hall inside. With soaring ceilings, a broad, stone staircase and decorative tiles on the walls and floors, the interior creates a spectacular first impression.
Inside the flat itself you have a large living/dining/kitchen space nearly six metres in length with two Crittall windows, fitted with secondary glazing, which does a fantastic job of keeping the flat quiet, despite its central location. The solid wood floor and modern cream kitchen units, lend warmth and a contemporary feel to the space. An integrated fridge freezer and integrated washing machine keep appliances hidden away, and there is an electric oven and hob. The combination boiler is located in one of the kitchen units, out of sight. The bedroom is another large room, nearly five metres long with another Crittall window and secondary glazing. An entire wall of fitted wardrobes lines one wall. All the rooms are arranged off a central hall which has a cupboard for coats and shoes. The bathroom has a modern white suite, with a thermostatic shower over the bath, a rectangular sink with single chrome mixer tap, and a low level WC with concealed cistern. Large format wall tiles run from floor to ceiling in a neutral tone.
The property is being sold with no onward chain.
