In an exclusive gated mews just 10 minutes’ walk from the County Hospital and the sea, this immaculate two bedroom house has allocated parking and a luxury finish which is also eco sensitive. Architect designed, the spacious ground floor folds open to a south facing patio ideal for sophisticated entertaining whilst on the first floor, both generous bedrooms are unusually private as they are not overlooked. New homes are in great demand and this prestigious development completed in 2016 is near a park with a choice of local schools and a stroll takes you to the al fresco waterfront restaurants of the Marina or relaxed café culture of Kemptown. Ideal for professionals or investors there are regular buses to the city and the station serving Gatwick and London, and the international shopping, bistros and art venues of our legendary coastal resort are just 5 minutes’ by cab.

Step into a celebrity lifestyle in this sophisticated home tucked privately away behind impressive gates in one of the most exclusive areas of our vibrant coastal city. With strong clean lines and energy efficient windows in place it is a welcoming haven to return to with a parking space opposite the lit entrance, and inside, the streamlined hallway sets the flawless tone of the interior design with oak flooring, high ceiling, large cupboard for coats and bags, and spacious guest cloakroom which has plumbing in place for a shower.

To the left, the inviting kitchen has gleaming units which are right on trend with attractive, practical working surfaces whilst glass splash backs and three levels of light add to the designer finish. Beautifully planned, everything flows from the central gas hob and electric oven both beneath a hood. High spec appliances include a Bosch washer drier and a dishwasher, and the tall fridge freezer could stay, subject to circumstance.

Designed to enjoy with family and friends, the glamorous living room spans the whole of the back of the house and is perfect for entertaining in LA style with a south wall of glass opening to the walled garden, ideal for the al fresco lifestyle our city is known for. Inside, subtle colour tones keep the feel current and the focus on the seamless in/out flow, whilst a choice of lighting adds ambience to this enticing space.

Outside, the garden is a private sanctuary where it is easy to forget that you are in an international coastal city! Party perfect with plenty of space to share it is level with the living room - something hard to find in a city built on the South Downs - lighting is already in place and it is paved for ease of maintenance.

Upstairs, a hushed landing has another large cupboard for storage – and plentiful storage is one of the features throughout this home. Ahead, guests will love the double bedroom which runs along the front of the house which is waiting for their arrival with a deep double wardrobe plus a cupboard over the stairs for bags, and open views over the communal courtyard with a wildlife pond to the Downland which surrounds our seaside metropolis. Central to this floor, a chic bathroom sooths with a shower above the bath, heated rail for towels and shaving point. With a south west oriel window, the principle bedroom is not directly overlooked, and quiet and comfortable with elegant décor, touches of luxury include a wall of closets and dimmer switches, so you won’t want to change a thing.

Agent says:

“This sophisticated home offers a VIP lifestyle and bear in mind that contemporary homes with gated, allocated parking and a south patio do not come to the market often in this sought after neighbourhood. Completed in 2016, unusually it still has 7 years left on the NHBC warranty. Energy efficient features include solar panels and it’s achieved a BREEAM rating of very good.”

Owner’s secret:
