Description
Glorious, holiday views of the pier and the sea stream through this stylish, 2 bedroom apartment within a prime, Grade II listed Regency building attributed to Busby & Wilds. Set well back from the coast road behind a south facing communal garden and opposite beaches with waterfront art galleries, a Lido, Yoga centre and bistro bars nearby it is a dream coastal home or a high end investment, good to go with well -proportioned rooms to deliver an elegant lifestyle and bedrooms which don’t share a wall or a bathroom. Just a 10 min scenic stroll along the promenade from the legendary Lanes, Brighton Station’s direct trains to Gatwick and London are about 7-10 minutes by cab.
A rare find, the grand reception is full of sunlight with windows so large you can enjoy the coastal view even when seated, and L shaped it lends itself to discreetly working from home. The streamlined central kitchen has a designer finish and ideal for guests, the first of the double bedrooms looks out to sea and is by the luxury bathroom. On the east side with oblique views of the sea, the spacious principal is exceptionally restful with fitted wardrobes and a chic en-suite. With the fashionable, al fresco lifestyle of Kemptown which hosts both Pride and the County Hospital around the corner, now is the time to buy with substantial improvements taking place along the seafront.

Why you’ll like it:
On our famous, Regency seafront in a convenient spot with independent shops, cafés and bars on your doorstep but out of hearing, this beautiful home is within an impressive end of terrace building with a spacious, south facing garden for the residents who can also enjoy sheltering from the heat on a sheltered private patio at the back. The imposing entrance is secure and inside the communal hallway impresses with a high ceiling, doric columns and tiled floor.
Inside the apartment, historic proportions remain unspoilt and the hall is inviting with warm oak flooring and a large cupboard for coats and bags. Ahead, the living dining room is a classic beauty with ample space in which to work, rest or play and L shaped provides natural zoning. Two large windows bring in plenty of Sussex sunshine and frame the glory of the coastline where the view stretches over open water to Rampion wind farm and over major attractions of the coast all the way to the bay of Worthing for the sunsets.
Along the hallway, the kitchen is easy to reach from both the living dining room and the bedrooms. High spec with a high end finish it is good to go with gleaming granite surfaces, a touch induction hob and oven beneath a hood, integrated fridge and plumbing for a washing machine.
Sun-lit and spacious, at the front of the apartment the first of the double bedrooms is ideal for guests or sharers as it doesn’t share a wall with the principal bedroom, and watching over the English Channel it is absolutely private. Next door the luxury bathroom is lined in Travertine stone. Eco- friendly the bath has a shower above it and the designer finish includes the hand basin.
At the far end of the apartment, the secluded principal room is very generous in size. Facing east for the morning sun with wonderful, oblique views to the glittering sea, it is simple but stylish with fitted floor to ceiling wardrobes in place. And the high end shower room has a Mira Advance shower installed, so water pressure shouldn’t be an issue.
Agent Says:
“Opposite the beach, although this spot is fashionable and only a short walk into the historic heart of the city, it is tucked away from the crowds of tourists.”
Owner’s secret:
“Grade II listed, the building is beautiful and well-maintained. All of the rooms are light and inviting and the stunning views at the front also make it private. There is a lovely community on St James’s Street and there’s something for everyone of any age here: You can spend time on the beach, enjoy the fresh local produce on offer, explore the local cafés and restaurants or walk into Brighton’s cultural heart which clusters around the Royal Pavilion – about a 10 min walk. If you love the sea, the Marina is also within walking distance and buses will take you into the city, along the coast or to the National Park.”
