Why you’ll like it:
These iconic Regency townhouses were built in the 1840s and are Grade II Listed to protect their creamy curved facades adorned with ornate architectural features. This apartment sits on the lower ground floor of a mid-terrace townhouse, so it is approached down a few stone steps behind smart iron railings. It has its own street entrance adding to the sense of privacy from within, but being set well back from the road ensures the natural light is also able to stream into the front of the property.

Due to the depth of these substantial houses, this apartment stretches back considerably, and on entry it is immediately clear that it has been renovated to a very high standard. Many of the original features have been reinstated or renovated to include wall panelling, window shutters and floor boards, and a contemporary Farrow & Ball palette has been used throughout, in keeping with the period. Many of the fixtures and fittings are on trend taking a modern approach on a period style which works perfectly in a property such as this.

From the entrance, the master bedroom is to the right and is a generous double which follows the natural curve of the building to the front. Two tall windows face west bringing in a warming afternoon light, then the shutters can be closed to block the world out when needed. There is ample space in here for a king size bed and freestanding furnishings without compromising on floor space in the slightest.

Along the corridor, the living room sits centrally to the apartment and is perfectly spacious with white painted floorboards which serve to brighten the room further still. Natural light streams in through French doors leading out to the patio and the woodwork inside has been picked out stylishly in an almost black shade which takes you through to the glamorous kitchen adjoining.
Cleverly designed for the space, there is ample storage at both wall and base levels in Shaker style cabinetry which has been paired with light oak worktops and open shelving. A butler sink and SMEG range cooker have been seamlessly fitted leaving space for a tall Smeg fridge and a washing machine, all of which may be negotiable with the sale.

The bathroom sits at the far end of the flat and has a luxury feel with an Omni Japanese bath to fit two, and both copper and gold accessories which complement the powder pink metro-brick wall tiles to perfection.

Outside, the courtyard garden feels perfectly private for somewhere so central to the city and offers a lovely spot to sit out in the morning sunshine with your coffee. With faux grass it is easy to maintain, but there is potential to add potted plants or a kitchen garden for the green fingered.

There is a second bedroom with an internal window which sits off the living room and is an excellent addition to the flat.

Agent’s thoughts:
Beautifully presented, and perfectly located for everything this vibrant coastal city has to offer – this apartment is sure to be snapped up.
