    Knight & Knoxley are delighted to present this fantastic, light, and spacious, two-bedroom garden flat in Springfield Road, which has been well cared for by its current owners. Rare off-street parking. Extremely private, being at the rear of a large, semi-detached building with its own entrance.

    This wonderful garden flat is part of an impressive semi-detached Victorian property on Springfield Road. To the side of the house is a wide driveway which provides access to off-street parking at the rear of the property for at least one car. As the property is a generous distance from its neighbouring building, this also allows the sun to come through from the south into the north-facing garden from late morning onwards. There is also scope to enlarge the garden should you prefer this option to using the parking space.

    As you enter the apartment through the front door you find yourself in a light and welcoming entrance hall from which both bedrooms and the living room are accessed. There is a useful cupboard for coats and other storage, beautiful wood flooring flows from the hall through to the living room and kitchen, providing continuity to the space. The living room is a large and inviting room with double doors and a window overlooking the garden. In the summer you are likely to leave these doors open for much of the time, so that you can wander out onto the decking and up the steps to the main garden. Mature trees beyond the garden make this a tranquil and leafy spot in the warmer months, and there are always many birds, including a resident woodpecker. Back inside, the kitchen has been recently updated and has gorgeous, turquoise, shaker-style units. There is a breakfast bar along one wall. The electric fan-assisted oven is just over a year old and there is an electric hob with extractor hood. The owners are also intending to leave the integrated fridge-freezer and a slimline dishwasher. The main bedroom is a lovely large room which has plenty of space for a king-size bed and even a small work-from-home area. Two windows bring lots of light into the room, one particularly tall window is an original period feature. The second bedroom has been sound insulated on the wall which it shares with the living room. In the past this room has had a double sofa-bed in it, as it was being used as a guest room/office. Both bedrooms have high-quality wool carpet. The bathroom has a white suite and a bath with a shower over and plenty of storage space. The flat has an electric boiler and is always nice and warm in winter.

    Springfield Road is a short stroll from Preston Park, which has large open spaces, a children’s playground and two places to grab a coffee and a bite to eat - the Rotunda Café or the Chalet Café - as well as tennis courts and a velodrome. 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. 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. Bear's House, Downs Infant and Junior schools are just around the corner, all rated outstanding by Ofsted. The flat is in catchment for the extremely popular Dorothy Stringer and Varndean secondary schools.
