If you’re looking for a well-presented, peaceful apartment close to the seafront, this tidy two-bedroom ground floor home offers a fantastic balance of space, light and convenience.

Set within the attractive Villa Maria development — a former convent conversion — the property enjoys a unique setting just north of Sussex Square. Tucked away from the road and surrounded by communal grounds, it offers a real sense of privacy while still being moments from Kemp Town’s vibrant lifestyle.

Inside, the layout is practical and well-proportioned. A central hallway connects each room, creating a natural separation between living and sleeping areas. The reception room is a bright and comfortable space, benefitting from a dual-aspect outlook which allows light to pour in throughout the day. With space for both seating and dining, it’s ideal for everyday living as well as entertaining.

The separate kitchen is neatly fitted with modern units, offering good storage and worktop space along with integrated appliances and room for additional freestanding items.

Both bedrooms are well-sized, with the principal room featuring built-in wardrobes, while the second bedroom provides flexibility as a guest room, nursery or home office.

The bathroom has been finished in a contemporary style, with a white suite, metro tiling and a shower over the bath, completing the accommodation.

Outside

The apartment sits within well-kept communal grounds, with residents’ parking available on-site. Being set back from the road, the development feels quiet and secure — a real hidden gem in this central location.
