Description

***Guide Price £255,000 - £265,000***

knight & knoxley are delighted to present this beautifully finished one-bedroom apartment on Florence Road, one of Preston Park's most attractive and prestigious tree-lined streets.

Occupying the ground floor of an elegant period building, the apartment extends to approximately 443 sq. Ft and has been recently improved throughout, with new carpets, fresh decoration, a new kitchen, a new boiler and a new fuse box. The result is a smart, well-presented home that combines period proportions with a clean, contemporary finish.

The living/dining room is positioned at the front of the apartment and is a particularly attractive space, with a wide bay window drawing in natural light and giving a leafy outlook towards the road. High ceilings, generous proportions and deep skirting boards give the room a strong sense of character, while there is ample space for both relaxed seating and a dining area.

The kitchen sits just off the living space and has been newly fitted with modern white cabinetry, integrated oven and hob, extractor, fridge/freezer and space for appliances. Its compact, well-planned layout makes good use of the available space while keeping the living area separate and uncluttered.

The bedroom is a generous double, extending to over 16 ft in length, and benefits from fitted Sharps wardrobes, providing excellent built-in storage. Positioned away from the main living room, it feels calm and private, with enough room for a large bed and additional furniture.

The bathroom is neatly arranged with a bath and shower over, WC, basin and contemporary tiling. Further improvements include a new boiler and updated electricals, giving useful peace of mind for the next owner.

The old flint church at the corner of Florence Road and Southdown Avenue serves as a vibrant community hub, hosting the well-known Florence Road Saturday market. The Florence Road Café, open on weekdays, offers coffee, cakes, and fresh bread. Just moments away from the flat, St. Augustine's Arts & Events Centre also has a café, with seating in the garden, as well as a varied programme of events and yoga classes at the Space Yoga studio. Both Blakers Park and Preston Park are within easy walking distance. At Fiveways, there is a wide selection of local shops and a Co-op. Additional conveniences include a gp surgery at the end of the road and a dentist at Fiveways. London Road station is only a few minutes' walk away, and regular buses serve the area from both ends of Florence Road. By car, there is easy access to the A23 for routes out of Brighton towards London.
