Why you’ll like it:
Stylish and spacious, this apartment sits within the smaller building to the left, easy to access via the bridged walkway from the road. Stepping inside the flat, it has clearly been expertly maintained, using fine finishes and fittings. Wood floors gleam in the hall, making way for soft dove-grey carpet in the bedrooms and living space. The walls complement in a palette of neutral tones and there is a deep cupboard for coats, shoes and household items to ensure the flat remains clutter free.
Facing the front of the building, the living room is dual aspect, enjoying light from the south and west. It is a generous size for homely furnishing to relax upon after a long day, watching a movie or streaming service from a wall mounted TV (not included). There would also be space for formal dining, if need be, yet the kitchen has space for a table too.
Conveniently across the hall, the kitchen is naturally light with an easterly aspect, enjoying the first of the far-reaching views across Goldstone Valley which are a joy to wash up to. There is space for a dishwasher, however, and a freestanding washing machine, while the fridge freezer, oven and hob are integrated for you.
Both bedrooms are substantial double rooms, ideal for families, or for professionals looking for a spacious home office when working from home. Both rooms have restful tones on the walls and the west facing room also benefits from built-in wardrobes. Both have ample space for freestanding pieces and king size beds, plus double glazing ensures they are ultimately peaceful for sleep.
Nearby, the bathroom is classic with natural stone tiling around a contemporary white bath suite. The shower sits over the bath and there is sleek storage for toiletries alongside a heated rail for towels.

Like many of the surrounding streets in Goldstone, Balmoral Court has a ‘regal’ place name, as much of the area was developed during the 1950s during the time of the Coronation. Although this development was built later, it certainly blends into its countryside surroundings, with gabled roofs and hung tiles on its red brick façade. While they sit at the edge of the city, they are literally minutes from two commuter stations; Waitrose, the Greyhound Stadium and Hove Park, so they are superbly well-connected.
This is a hugely popular area with fantastic transport links and The South Downs National Park nearby. The city centre shopping districts and beach are also within easy reach by foot, car or bus, and this home also offers easy access to the A23/A27 which has direct and fast links to the universities, airports and London.
