Private, quiet and beautifully presented, this majestic 1 bed apartment in Kemp’s exclusive Grade I masterpiece, Sussex Square has use of 7.5 acres of listed gardens for residents which sweep to the sea – with a tunnel to the beach. An idyllic retreat in an exclusive location, inside elegant period proportions blend with fabulous interior design to deliver a secluded, sophisticated lifestyle with an easy flow from the contemporary kitchen to the elegant living dining room, the secluded bedroom has a stylish en-suite and discreet storage, and there’s even a separate w.c. for guests. Just 10 mins drive from Brighton Station’s direct trains to Gatwick and London and about 7 by cab (or a scenic 25 min seafront stroll) from the picturesque cultural heart of the city, this bijou retreat enjoys 35.53m2 (382.44 sq. ft.) of peaceful rooms in which to spread your wings.

Quiet, convenient and with plentiful permit parking which has no waiting list, Sussex Square is one of the finest Regency developments within the UK- and is one of only a few in our coastal city which have private gardens for the residents which sweep to the south facing seafront. Conceived by Thams Kemp and built by Thomas Cubitt as ‘Belgravia by the Sea’, this exclusive address is just minutes from the historic cultural heart of the city.

Private at the back of the building, inside, the hallway is quiet and the apartment is well-planned with a discreet guest w.c tucked away. Ahead, lined with windows to bathe the space with light, the kitchen is a classic beauty, efficiently planned to deliver plenty of storage and working areas where integrated appliances include an electric hob and oven – and a butlers sink to acknowledge the history of the building.

Next door, at the foot of a few glamorous curved steps, elegant Regency entertaining springs to life in the beautiful living dining room where the ceiling rises to an impressive height, two windows bring in plenty of natural light and there is ample space in which to unwind or to share with friends – ideal as this is the perfect place for you all to meet before a day on the beach or night out in the city!

Ahead, double doors sweep open to a hushed bedroom, designed as an inviting but secluded retreat with refined decoration which you won’t need to change. Discreet storage frees up floorspace and it has its own secret en-suite, large enough for a bath, where the high end finish includes a drench head shower above the bath and a warming rail for towels.
