Tucked away off Kemptown Seafront, yet conveniently close to the amenities within the ‘village’ this two-bedroom apartment is ideally located to enjoy everything this vibrant coastal city has to offer. Formed from the entire first floor of an elegant Victorian townhouse, it bears the generous proportions of the era with high ceilings and wide bay sash windows. Having recently undergone extensive renovations, it has been brought back to its former glory, reinstating period features and renewing the workings of the building to ensure it lasts for many more years to come. The interior design is immaculate, where only the finest fittings and finishes have been used to create versatile and stylish spaces for relaxation and entertaining in style.

This newly refurbished Victorian building has been carefully redeveloped into four individual flats, offering a variety of sizes and layouts to suit different lifestyles, with some benefitting from private outdoor space. Prices range from £350,000–£375,000 up to £400,000–£425,000, ensuring broad appeal. The exterior sets the tone for the quality finish found inside, with its sage façade picked out in crisp white detailing and bathed in natural light from the west — a fine indication of the character and craftsmanship throughout the development.

This property is formed from the entire first floor, so it is elevated from the street, giving it views over the attractive tree-lined street. A glossy black front door opens to the communal hallway and stairwell which has also been redecorated, creating a welcoming space to return home to each day.

Stepping inside the flat, it feels immediately light and airy with natural light streaming in from the open plan living room and kitchen spanning the front of the building. It is clearly a beautifully renovated property, using light calico and stone tones for the walls, paired with pale engineered oak floors and white woodwork features. This classic palette ideally suits all styles of furnishing and works together with the warmer metallic accents found within the wall sockets and fittings within the kitchen and bathroom.

Within the main living space, there is ample room for formal dining and relaxed seating alongside the kitchen which comes fitted with integrated appliances, so you can move straight in with relative ease. Shaker cabinetry feels stylish in forest green to echo the leaves on the trees outside, pairing perfectly with brushed gold door furniture to create an immaculate and impressive aesthetic.

Nearby, the bathroom has a modern take on a period scheme using marbled brick wall tiles around a traditional rainfall shower and a marble topped washstand and basin. Gold accents bring modern style to the space to include a contemporary towel rail and a rich heritage green for the walls.

Bedroom two sits peacefully to the rear of the flat with a tall sash window facing east, looking down over neighbouring gardens. It is another double room, ideal as a bedroom or as a tranquil study or office for one or two people working from home.

Along the corridor and down a few steps, the principal bedroom feels particularly peaceful and is a generous double room. Even with a king size bed, the carpeted floor space is not compromised and the double glazed window ensures a warm and restful night’s sleep.

Vendor’S Comments: - “These are magnificent buildings with an air of grandeur and a sense of occasion which few others bring. It has been a real joy to breathe new life into these apartments to ensure their heritage and character remains to be enjoyed for many more years.”

Good To Know: - During the 19th century, Brighton’s coastline was transformed from a quiet fishing village, to one of the most fashionable and wealthy towns in the country. From the early 1820s and throughout the Victorian era, these uniquely beautiful townhouses began lining the seafront and now 200 years later they remain just as popular.

The relaxed café culture of Kemp Town Village is just moments around the corner from these apartments which are within walking distance of The Amex Business Centre, Law Courts and the RSC Hospital as well as the historic heart of the city. Brighton Station is 25 minutes on foot or a short bus ride away with its fast service to Gatwick and London, and there’s not waiting list for this parking zone. They would make hugely successful rental properties for investors, or would appeal to down sizers and professionals looking to live the quintessential Brighton lifestyle by the sea (which is visible at the bottom of the road).
