This private, two bedroom luxury maisonette is in one of the most impressive historic houses on Brighton’s seafront and is Grade II listed to acknowledge its statuesque beauty. With the stylish impact only a blend of historic proportions, glorious period features and the best of contemporary design can deliver, it is ready to move into with an elegant living dining room, chic shower room and a fabulous, streamlined kitchen which is good to go. Ideal if you work from home or want to share, the two double bedrooms are on different levels for privacy, and each are generous in size. With 83.5m2 (899sq ft) of loveliness to play with, the location is fashionable close to So-Ho House and St James’s Street (on the Pride route), and only a 10 minute walk to the legal centres, Amex, County Hospital, and Brighton College. Attracting international investors, small families and professionals, a short, scenic stroll by the sea will take you to the picturesque Lanes, art venues and legendary clubs of our vibrant coastal resort, and if you need swift access to Gatwick or London the station is just 8 minutes by cab.

EPC: Listed Building
In a prime location watching over the English Channel, this 1840’s building enjoys views which reach over Brighton Pier, West Pier and the pier at Worthing, so you can enjoy the exclusive seafront vista every time you return to – or leave- this secure building. Tucked up and away from the crowds with a street lined with friendly amenities including one of Brighton’s oldest brew pubs, shops, cafés and a weekly farmers market around the corner, this statuesque property is in a sought after area particularly popular with health, flight and teaching professionals as the hospital is a 10 minute stroll, a plethora of good schools are easy to reach, and there is almost 24/7 access to the airports if you do not drive.

Inside the communal hall impresses with a fine Victorian staircase which rises beneath a vaulted roof light, but which now also embraces a lift! Privately tucked away on the fourth floor this apartment opens to an inviting L shaped hallway, lined with windows and which has a discreet cupboard for storage.

Ahead, a sunlit reception is quietly impressive with classic proportions and 5.92m x 3.57m (19’5 x 11’8) to enjoy. Ideal for entertaining the high ceiling is decorated by elegant coving and guests can enjoy a traditional dining experience in total privacy, (highly valued in a city favoured by celebrities) and relax by the beautiful, marble fireplace. There is an easy flow to the stylish kitchen with a practical layout but designer finish where high spec appliances include an electric hob, oven and a hood, streamlined units deliver sophisticated storage and the white surfaces are on-trend Corian and lit from above.

Chic and central to the apartment, the shower room is spacious with a high end drench head in the walk in shower, sleek vanity below the hand basin and a tall warming rail for plenty of towels. Across the hall, the first of the double bedrooms has a generous 5.22m x 3.58m (17’2 x 11’9) in which to work, rest or play and tastefully decorated, it is ready to move into. At the top of its own staircase, the second, vaulted bedroom is a dream come true with large Velux to each side, so it is not overlooked, and there are two areas of storage space to explore.

Agent’s thoughts:
“Chic and central, this high end, split level apartment is in an exclusive location – and now is the time to buy with substantial improvements underway along the seafront including a new Lido. Homes in this beautiful building do not appear on the market often, so it is a must see…!”

Owner’s secret:
“A great location opposite the beach with bars, restaurants and art venues on the doorstep but out of hearing – inside is private and peaceful, and you will also have easy access to almost 24hr transport links to the stations and airports.”
