This stylish 1-bedroom garden flat offers a rare blend of city-centre convenience and outdoor space. Situated on the lower ground floor of a classic Victorian terrace close to The Level and the vibrant Lewes Road, it has been smartly designed with open-plan living, a bright double bedroom, and a separate kitchen leading directly out to the garden. The flat benefits from its proximity to excellent transport links with Brighton Station only a 10 min walk away, along with local shops, and green spaces, making it ideal for first-time buyers, professionals or those looking for a central Brighton base. This is a fantastic opportunity to secure a peaceful home with character in one of the city’s most connected neighbourhoods.

Why you’ll like it:

Just a short stroll from the independent cafés and shops of Lewes Road and within easy reach of the popular London Road area, this garden flat offers rare outside space in the heart of the city. Set on the lower ground floor of a classic Victorian terrace, it’s part of a sought-after residential stretch between The Level and Preston Circus.

At the front, a sun-trap courtyard leads into the property, where a generously sized bedroom with bay window welcomes plenty of natural light. The open-plan living/dining area has a cosy but sociable feel, ideal for entertaining or relaxing. A sleek galley-style kitchen sits to the rear and opens onto a private garden — perfect for morning coffee or evening drinks. The modern bathroom is nicely separated from the living space, and there’s good storage throughout.

Whether you're a first-time buyer, downsizer, or someone looking for a city bolt-hole with personality and privacy, this flat ticks all the boxes. The location offers excellent connectivity, but the property itself is tucked away and peaceful — a great blend of convenience and calm.

Agent says:
“This is a rare opportunity to get private outside space and a modern interior in a central Brighton flat. You’re moments from the buzz of Lewes Road, but the property itself is set below street level, giving it a private, tucked-away feel. The garden and courtyard add real lifestyle value — and the layout makes the most of the square footage.”

Owner’s secret:
“The garden gets the sun from early afternoon through to the evening, and it’s a really nice place to wind down at the end of the day. You can walk into town or to Brighton Station easily, and I love how convenient everything is — even having a big Sainsbury’s just around the corner. It’s a surprisingly quiet flat for such a central location.”
