Kemptown Village has an easy going, unpretentious vibe and it is bordered by the sea where a seasonal lift will take you to beach bars and volleyball courts. Between the Pier and Marina you are hidden away from the main tourist trail and this terrace is a prime goal not only because of its proximity to the hospital but also as it is by the public garden of St George’s Church which is a favourite for lunch in the sun and also hosts refined events during our arts festivals. Outside, this beautiful property radiates period charm – and inside, glorious Victorian proportions remain unspoilt, although the refurbishment has breathed new life through this apartment with the plumbing, electrics, flooring, bathroom and kitchen replaced over the last few years.
On the ground floor with an entry phone system, the hallway of this home has natural light and is freshly painted with new carpet, so first impressions are good, and the discreet double cupboard ahead conceals plumbing for a washer drier – and the vendor is willing to discuss the machine in situ.
Spanning the building from east to west with a large window at one end and broad bay almost filling the front wall at the other, the double depth reception has elegant coving around a ceiling which soars to an impressive 3.127m, so this is an inviting retreat with plenty of scope to zone into areas for work, rest or play. Ready to move into with good quality carpet in the living area, this space has been thoughtfully planned with a swap to high grade oak flooring in the kitchen/dining part whilst the subtle tones of colour continue to unite the two areas.
Ideal if you like to entertain, ivory matt units and floating shelving provide ample storage whilst working surfaces are user friendly, and carefully tucked along one wall it is away from the social flow so it does not dominate the whole reception either. Good to go with an integrated hob, oven, fridge, freezer and dishwasher, there is also an electric fire alarm system already in place.
Quietly tucked away at the back of this substantial building, the double bedroom is a restful refuge decorated in calm colours with carpet. With built in wardrobes, cupboards and shelving it has all the storage you could dream of and at the far end, the en suite shower room is right on trend with a walk in shower, warming rail for towels, a painted cabinet beneath the hand basin and a lit mirror and shelving above it, so you won’t need to change a thing.
Agent says:
“Ideal if you are a health professional, (although it is also within walking distance of other major employers like Brighton College, Amex and the station) this apartment is the perfect backdrop for those who want to enjoy a prime location with its own character and amenities, but where you can also walk into the heart of our vibrant and inclusive coastal city.”
Owner’s secret:
“The Village is a great location with the beach, downland walks and tennis courts of Queen’s Park on the doorstep and it has friendly cafes, bars and restaurants, so you won’t feel isolated if you are new to the city. The shops open early and shut late if you commute or work at the hospitals and the neighbours are considerate – there’s a nice mix of single people, couples and families. You don’t have to be tied to a car here as you can walk, bus or cab anywhere, and we love going to shows in Brighton or in London as it is so easy to get home. As we are relocating, we are happy to negotiate items of furniture, etc if you would like any of them.”

Brighton & Hove is a party resort known for its beaches, arts festivals and international shopping – but also for its unique history, cosmopolitan cultural centre and warm, inclusive community. Built on hills and surrounded by the South Downs National Park we attract professionals and families seeking fresh air, good schools and a vibrant lifestyle. Kemptown Village has an eclectic mix of cafés, shops, restaurants and even a farmer’s market, and it is bordered by the sea with a seasonal lift down to the beach – and bars and volleyball courts. Hosting the County Hospital and world famous Brighton College, local schools are good, our glamorous racecourse is nearby and it is within walking distance of the picturesque city centre and waterfront restaurants of the Marina, although there are local buses and plentiful permit parking with no waiting list in zone H.
