During the 19th century, Brighton’s coastline was wonderfully transformed from a quiet fishing village, to one of the most fashionable and wealthy towns in the country. From the early 1820s, these uniquely beautiful townhouses began lining the seafront, with their intricate architectural features. They have put Brighton on the map as one of the most sought-after places to live outside London, with the fresh sea air and the diverse and artistic culture surrounding them, a welcome bonus.
Due to the scale of these gracious buildings, the apartments within them are wonderfully spacious, and even on the second floor, this one has high ceilings, generous rooms, and is filled with natural light. White walls and oatmeal carpets provide a blank canvas for new owners allowing them to put their own stamp on the place. Within the living room there is space to dine by the tall sash windows which frame views over the Regency homes opposite, with the sea obliquely framed to the south. The light is glorious during the afternoon due to the westerly aspect when sun sets light up the sky.
Adjoining the living room, the kitchen is well-designed for the space, providing a wealth of storage at base and wall levels in Shaker cream units. Within these, the oven and gas hob are integrated, leaving space for a washing machine and a tall fridge freezer, which may be available by separate negotiation.
Peacefully positioned to the rear of the building, the bedroom looks out over neighbouring gardens. It is a fine size for a double bed and freestanding wardrobes, plus a corner cupboard houses the gas boiler but has space for additional items. Nearby, the bathroom is on-trend with a monochrome scheme and brick tiles around the bath. This has a shower over it and the basin is set into a vanity unit for toiletries, while a heated rail is wall mounted for towels.
Agent’s thoughts:
"This property sits in an ideal location for beach lovers and city dwellers. It is well-presented with a stylish yet neutral décor to suit many types of furnishings, so we do not expect it to sit on the market for long."
Owner’s thoughts:
“Kemp Town has a unique culture of its own, and a vibrant energy. During the summer it comes alive with festivals and music, and the beach is a joy all year round.”
Where it is:
Shops: Local 2 min walk, city centre 10 min walk

Just minutes from the fashionable Kemp Town Village with its eclectic shops, cafes and bars, the theatres and Lanes are also just a short walk. The lush green spaces of Queens Park are within easy reach and there are regular buses to the mainline station with its excellent links to Gatwick and London.
