Bedrooms: 3
Occupying an enviable position on sought-after Brighton seafront is this very special three-bedroom apartment, arranged over two floors within a striking Regency building. The apartment occupies the ground and lower ground floors of this Grade II-listed property, built circa 1827 in the typical Kemp Town vernacular with grand stucco elevations, Doric columns, cast iron detailing and moulded cornicing. With more than 1200 sq ft of space, the apartment feels fabulously generous and offers a versatile layout with the dual-usage options for either bedroom or additional reception space.

There are several beautiful features, including solid wood and parquet floors, strikingly tall sash windows with shutters, picture rails and ceiling rose, all beautifully incorporated into a modern décor scheme which includes updated bathrooms and a contemporary kitchen. The main sitting and dining room is a highlight, with fabulous far-reaching views out to see and over the marina and Brighton Pier via two large sash windows with restored original shutters, stripped wood floors, high skirting boards and feature fireplace.

The remaining accommodation comprises, on the lower floor, two generous en-suite double bedrooms, a spacious, eat-in kitchen and utility cupboard, whilst on the upper floor there is a further double bedroom, shower room and the sitting-dining room. Two separate staircases give the property great separation, so ideal for those working from home or as an almost self-contained guest suite. There is excellent storage throughout and the apartment also benefits from a private entrance on the lower floor, as well as a communal entrance via the main hallway entrance at the side.

Outside

Whilst the building is essentially on the seafront, it is set back from the road behind a pretty, half-moon garden area, making it much quieter than those directly on Marine Parade. The residents of of Marine Square each have a gate code to the central garden square for their exclusive use and even has a communal vegetable plot. The flat itself has its own private courtyard to the rear, a further courtyard area at the front and side, and use of a separate, under-pavement storage room.
