Description
The available accommodation comprises a self-contained retail unit arranged over the ground floor and basement. The ground floor features an open-plan sales area with fitting rooms to the rear, benefiting from wood flooring, track lighting, air conditioning, and freshly painted white walls. The basement provides a generous storage area, kitchenette, and W/C, with rear access for deliveries. This unit is ideally suited to a retail business seeking a high-footfall location in Brighton.

Location
The property is prominently positioned on East Street, one of Brighton’s busiest pedestrian thoroughfares and a key part of the city’s premium retail and leisure district. East Street is well known for its upmarket fashion retailers, quality dining establishments, and vibrant bar scene, attracting both locals and tourists year-round. The location sits moments from the historic South Lanes, the New Hanningtons development, Kemptown, and Brighton Beach — all high-footfall areas within walking distance. It also draws significant footfall from affluent nearby towns such as Lewes, Haywards Heath, and Shoreham-by-Sea. The city benefits from a large and active student population of over 30,000 across the University of Sussex, University of Brighton, and other local institutions, all served by strong public transport links into the city centre.
