Spanning the entire lower ground floor of an elegant Victorian townhouse in Brighton?s fashionable Kemptown district, this contemporary two-bedroom flat offers space for professionals and sharers to entertain in style. It has been renovated throughout using a contemporary palette, being careful to retain or reinstate some original features, keeping the character of the building intact. High ceilings, a wall of bi-folding doors and a large, vaulted skylight ensure it is uniquely light and airy for a lower ground property, and all fixtures and fittings feel like new, so you can move straight in or let it our immediately with ease.

You can see the sea at the end of the road from the steps leading down to the property?s own front door. Stepping inside, it is clear the space has been curated by those with a respect for period properties and an eye for interiors, creating a space which is both fun and homely.

Through the long entrance hall, you can spy through the depth of the building to the incredible living room at the far end, where the exposed brick wall rises up to the ceiling, adorned with plasterwork detailing and zoned spotlights. There is ample space in here for formal dining and relaxed seating, which can spill outside to the westerly patio for peaceful lunches, suppers and drinks alfresco, listening to the happy sounds of city and coastal life around you.

With the kitchen conveniently adjoining, cooking and entertaining is made easy as a well-designed space offering plenty or storage in streamlined cabinetry and lots of worktop area for meal preparation. An induction hob sits inlaid above the oven, while other appliances are also discreetly integrated and this all takes place away from the bedrooms which sit to the front of the building.

Both bedrooms are beautifully appointed with crisp white walls, spotlights to set the atmosphere and ample space for either freestanding or built-in wardrobes. The shower room sits between the two, so they don?t share a wall, offering a chic space for showering, lined in marble tiling from top to bottom.
