Arundel Terrace, Brighton, East Sussex, BN2

Set within one of Brighton’s most distinguished Regency terraces, this beautifully refurbished two-bedroom lower floor apartment offers elegant proportions, private outside space and access to the exclusive Kemp Town Enclosures. Designed by the celebrated architects Busby and Wilds and built between 1828–1834, Arundel Terrace has long been one of the city’s most prestigious seafront addresses. With 881 sq ft (81.8 sq m) of space, two courtyard terraces, its own private entrance and no onward chain, this apartment combines historic grandeur with modern comfort in an exceptional coastal setting.


Set back from the seafront behind lawns and an elegant boundary wall, the terrace is instantly recognisable for its striking Corinthian columns and classical porticoes, hallmarks of Brighton’s finest Regency architecture. The apartment enjoys its own entrance which leads down into a sunny south-facing courtyard, a charming introduction to the home and a peaceful spot for morning coffee or evening drinks.

Inside, a small entrance lobby opens into the apartment where the sense of space becomes immediately apparent. High ceilings and wide proportions typical of the Regency era create a wonderful sense of light and flow throughout the property. Off the entrance lobby is a surprisingly generous utility room, ideal for storage, laundry or even bicycles – a rare and practical addition for an apartment so close to the seafront.

The central hallway is wide and inviting, historically used as a dining hall or study area in homes of this period. From here, two graceful arches open into the main reception room, a bright and welcoming space with two south-facing windows bringing in plenty of natural light. A charming fireplace provides a focal point while the open layout ensures the room works perfectly for both relaxing and entertaining.

The kitchen sits just beyond an archway, thoughtfully arranged so it remains sociable without dominating the living space. Fitted with shaker-style cabinetry, contrasting worktops and integrated appliances, it offers both practicality and style.

Both bedrooms are well-proportioned doubles, positioned to ensure privacy and quiet. The first bedroom overlooks the internal courtyard and features period details including a fireplace and original arched recess. The principal bedroom sits peacefully to the rear of the apartment, with a sash window and glazed door leading directly out to the second private courtyard terrace – a tranquil outdoor space ideal for summer dining or simply enjoying a moment of calm in the city.

Completing the apartment is a smart shower room finished in a classic style with a large walk-in shower and heated towel rail.

One of the greatest privileges of living in this historic terrace is access to the Kemp Town Enclosures, the beautiful private gardens reserved exclusively for residents. These landscaped grounds extend across several acres and even feature a private tunnel leading directly to the beach, a unique and much-loved feature of this iconic location.
