Why you’ll like it:
Although the seafront setting is fashionable, this elegant apartment has that rare balance between vibrant amenities around the corner and quietude. Set back from the seafront behind a garden it is a stone’s throw from the beach, but the grand entrance is tucked away on a one way street and secured by an answer phone system.
Inside the apartment, inviting proportions remain unspoilt and a hushed lobby opens to a stylish, open plan living room, perfect for a contemporary lifestyle with ample space in which to relax, work from home and to entertain.

A large window brings in plenty of Sussex sunlight but is not directly overlooked, and airy in summer, during winter it transforms into a welcoming haven. Tucked into a corner, so it is sociable but not dominant, the kitchen has a cheerful breakfast bar and is good to go with an integrated hob and oven beneath a hood and there is designated space for an undercounter fridge, and plumbing for a washing machine.
To maximise floor space, ingenious design has central doors which fold away to the double bedroom. Light, airy and comfortable with calm decoration and space for furniture even with a double bed in situ, it is ready for your move complete with a stylish, en-suite shower room.

Agent says:
“Light and spacious, this stylish apartment is a great first step on the ladder or solid investment within 10 minutes – on foot – of the Royal Sussex County Hospital and Amex.”

Owner’s secret:
“Although you are right by the beach with everything you could possibly want or need on your doorstep, you’re tucked away on a one way street away from the crowds of tourists.”
