Beautiful, light-filled one-bedroom period apartment in the heart of Seven Dials
1 Bed | 1 Bath
A beautiful, light-filled one-bedroom period apartment on a leafy Seven Dials street
Set on one of Seven Dials’ most attractive tree- lined streets, this elegant first-floor one- bedroom apartment forms part of a handsome period building typical of the mid-late 19th- century homes that define the area. With exceptional ceiling heights, beautiful natural light throughout, and a carefully curated Farrow & Ball colour scheme, it offers a calm and characterful retreat just moments from the neighbourhood’s vibrant cafés, pubs and independent shops.
The living room is a standout space: a light- filled, beautifully balanced room framed by an impressive bay window that brings soft afternoon and evening sunlight into the home. Tall sash windows, wooden panelling, ornate cornicing and a feature fireplace give the room warmth and charm, while built-in shelving adds practicality and personality. With plenty of room for dining, working and relaxing, it serves as a welcoming centrepiece to the apartment.
The front door opens directly into a separate galley-style kitchen with a tall sash window at the far end. Wooden worktops, tiled splashbacks, a ceramic sink and good storage make it both practical and full of character.
The spacious double bedroom is peaceful and inviting, with a feature fireplace, built-in storage and a soft colour palette. It enjoys lovely morning sunlight, giving the room a bright, uplifting feel.
The bathroom is unusually generous for a one- bedroom home, with a roll-top bath, separate shower and natural light from a sash window, creating a calm, practical and indulgent space

-
Seven Dials is widely regarded as one of Brighton’s most desirable neighbourhoods, combining the charm of leafy residential streets with the convenience of a lively local high street. The area offers an excellent selection of cafés, restaurants, pubs and independent shops all just a short stroll away.
The street itself is especially attractive, lined with mature trees creating a peaceful, village-like atmosphere. For green space, Montpellier Crescent and St Anne’s Well Gardens are both close by — lovely spots year-round and perfect for escaping the busy seafront during summer.
-
Seven Dials is also superbly connected. Brighton Station is within walking distance, ideal for commuting to London, and the frequent Number 7 bus stops at the end of the road. The location is highly walkable, making it easy to reach the city centre, the seafront and other neighbourhoods on foot or by bike.
-
The area is well served by a range of local schools. Nearby primary options include Stanford Infant and Junior Schools and St Mary Magdalen Catholic Primary School. For secondary education, Dorothy Stringer and Varndean Schools are both within easy reach, while Brighton also offers a strong selection of independent schools including Brighton College, Brighton Girls GDST and Roedean.
