This elegant home has high ceilings, ornate cornice, two beautiful fireplaces and a stunning bespoke contemporary kitchen built by the current owner who is a professional cabinet maker.

Knight & Knoxley are delighted to be marketing this fantastic one-bedroom garden flat on Springfield Road. As you enter the flat on the raised ground floor you are in the elegant living room which would have once been the main drawing room of this Victorian property. It is graced with high ceilings, ornate cornice, and a beautiful fireplace with a cast iron inset and exquisite decorative tiles. There is an enormous high bay window with three sashes and panelling underneath. Hand-built cabinets are on either side of the chimney breast.

The master bedroom also has elegant proportions, high ceilings and a cast iron fireplace with decorative tiles. The sash window has an outlook over the rear gardens. On either side of the chimney breast, there are beautiful handmade wardrobes with decorative details in keeping with the Victorian period and stylish contemporary wooden handles. The bathroom has a bath with a shower over, a handbasin set on a bespoke wooden shelf and black and white checkerboard floor tiles. The kitchen is at the back of the property and this room is the showstopper, with a fully hand-crafted bespoke kitchen in a contemporary style. On one side of the kitchen are oak base cabinets, with curved corners, integral handles and a Corian worktop; on the other side are painted, hand-built, full-height larder cupboards. The kitchen then opens out through double doors onto a south facing sun deck with steps down to the private lawned garden including a useful storage shed and patio. From the sun deck or the patio, the sight of the two mature cherry blossom trees are a delight in Spring.

The property is ideally located for commuters, as Brighton Mainline station is a short walk away with direct services to London Bridge and Victoria, which arrive in London in less than an hour. Even closer is London Road station with services to Lewes and beyond. Several bus routes run close by including the 5, 5A and 5B which will take you straight into town. The Duke of York’s Picturehouse, Brighton’s much loved independent cinema, is moments away at Preston Circus, screening a huge variety of films throughout the week. A short stroll down London Road will bring you to the vibrant open market which is home to independent shops, artist’s studios and plaza traders with stalls selling handmade arts and crafts, delicious food and much more. There are great local pubs and restaurants including the Hare & Hounds, Joker, Open House, Signal Man, Preston Park Tavern and the Roundhill, all close by. The Roundhill is notable as it has an entirely vegan kitchen serving award-winning plant-based meals and all these local pubs serve food so you will be spoilt for choice.
