Water gently laps against the streamlined yachts moored below the sunny east balcony of this glamorous two bedroom apartment with secure parking and possible berth in a prime, waterfront location within Brighton’s famous Marina. Surrounded by the tranquil ebb and flow of the inner harbour on a quiet ‘island’ promontory, it is a private paradise with fresh decoration and new carpets where both the living room and en suite principal enjoy fabulous views over open water. Quiet and comfortable, the guest bedroom is ready for visitors and has access to a Jack & Jill luxury bathroom – and it is also ideal if you were thinking of renting as it has storage and doesn’t share a bedroom wall. A modern classic, the kitchen is good to go with a practical layout and fitted gas hob, electric oven and hood, and tucked away with 24 hour security it is the perfect lock up and leave. Attracting professionals, international investors and families seeking fresh air, easy access to the South Downs National Park and good schools, this exclusive setting is only 1.5 miles from our picturesque cultural heart of the city (7- 10 minutes by cab or a scenic seafront 25 minute stroll in the sun,) and also offers swift routes to the Amex Stadium, airports and London’s West End by road or train.

Brighton Marina is the largest Marina in the UK and a go-to destination of our legendary coastal resort. Victory Mews is safe and secure behind gates even though it is only a short walk to the variety of amenities within the Marina which include harbourside restaurants, multi plex cinema, health club/spa, and casino. Children are catered for with outdoor activities and a Bowlplex, and if you berth late- and there is a mooring just below the apartment balcony if you were interested - there is a 24/7 superstore with petrol service station within a stroll – but out of hearing.

With views only exclusive waterline properties can deliver, this light and inviting apartment has an impressive 62m2 (668 square feet) approx. in which to relax or enjoy with company. Inside, the hushed hallway has a cupboard for coats and luggage, and ahead the elegant living room has holiday views over the peaceful inner lagoon bordered by our famous chalk cliffs and which has a resident swan. Opening to a sun baked balcony for friends to spill out to, glass doors flood the room with rippling water, sunlight and streamlined boats and at 5.2m x 3.48m (17’ x 11’5) approx., there is ample floorspace in which to spread your wings and celebrate this unique waterfront lifestyle with friends.

Across the hallway, the kitchen is stylish and has an easy, flowing layout with everything to hand from the integrated gas hob and oven, both beneath a discreet hood. Good to go with practical working surfaces beneath a choice of lighting, plumbing is in place for a washing machine and there is space for an undercounter fridge – and the vendors are willing to discuss the existing white goods, subject to circumstance.

Central to the apartment, a contemporary bathroom has Mediterranean tiling and all you need including a shower attachment on the bath, a discreet shaving/toothbrush point and a second door to the spacious guest bedroom. Looking over the olive trees of the gated entrance, the guest room is comfortable with calm decoration. A luxury retreat to return to, the principal bedroom has a chic en suite shower room and restful views across the harbour, where you can relax looking along the cliffs to the dramatic frontage of Roedean College and to the exotic gardens of the prosperous homes on the opposite ‘isle,’ and watch the boats return to safe harbour at night.

Agent says:

“Quiet inside, outside there is a wealth of entertainment to enjoy just within a stroll – but out of hearing. Safe and secure, the Marina attracts professionals, families and international celebrities wanting a healthy lifestyle, good schools and privacy for their children with quick access to the city and airports, and this private home delivers on all fronts.”

Owner’s secret:

“Right on the waterfront, you do feel as though you are on holiday here! Light and airy all year round, in summer we love to sit out in the sunshine on the balcony as we plan the weekend together and enjoy the dramatic white cliffs and glamorous views over the inner harbour. The Marina is a fabulous location with a range of facilities including restaurants, a yacht club and even a casino to enjoy, and the legendary Brighton lifestyle is just 7 minutes by cab when you want it.”
