Property description & features
- Tenure: Share of freehold (965 years remaining)
EPC: D
Council Tax: D
Hidden away from the crowds, this impressive Grade II listed Regency square is in a sought after area with local shops open and plethora of good schools all easy to reach. Set within the square’s prime, south facing wing behind two gated gardens for the residents, this building radiates charm and local legend has it that Thomas Attree, who developed the square, chose the centrepiece as his home – which is why it is the only building with triple windows and the only seafront garden square with no access at the top.
A grand entrance adorned by columns leads through to a communal hallway with a broad staircase sweeping up to the second floor where a storeroom has natural light and water – and a door within it conceals what were once the servant’s stairs. Ahead, the front door to the apartment opens to a private flight of steps which rise past views of the village to Brighton College, and lead to an inviting hall which has a cupboard tucked away for coats and bags.
Ahead, an elegant reception celebrates the prime coastal location with triple windows in the south wall with views over beautiful gardens to the sea. Ideal for entertaining with 6.07m x 4.65m (19’10 x 13’7) of floorspace, you can bask in the Sussex sunshine and soak up the atmosphere with company by a handsome fireplace which is flanked by handmade cabinets. The kitchen has been well designed and built to last with solid wood units and plenty of wood surfaces. 4.16m x 4.15m (13’7 x 13’7) delivering ample room for dining in seclusion, and the vendors are happy to discuss all of the freestanding appliances.
On the top floor the bright landing has discreet storage and ladder access for maintenance to the roof with panoramic views (food for thought, but subject to consents..). At the back, a spacious bathroom is decorated in the colours of the sea with painted panelling and metro tiles, and includes a large walk in shower and non-slip flooring. Next door, the first of the three double bedrooms is big and bright with fitted cupboards, fireplace and open vista across the village high street. With sea views over gardens at the front, the second double room has lots of space even with a double bed and double wardrobe in situ. Full of sunlight, with views across the gated enclosures to open water, the principal bedroom is all about relaxing in a stunning setting. Quiet and comfortable, stripped wood wardrobes are already in place for you and an original shell fireplace adds a little Regency character.

Owner's secret...
“10-15 minutes’ walk from the city centre along the promenade there are also plenty of local cafés, bars and restaurants to choose from so friends tend to gather here whilst we decide where to explore, and its location is also ideal if you are looking for an income with all the main employers of the city within a 20 minute radius.”
Opposite the beach, bars and new Lido of Kemptown Village (reached by seasonal lift) and close to the tennis courts of Queen’s Park which also hosts arts events, this location is hard to beat. The al fresco café culture of the Village is on the doorstep which also includes a Boots, Post Office and a Co-op as well as a farmer’s market on Fridays. The cinemas, waterfront restaurants and health club of the glamorous Marina are within walking distance, and the picturesque heart of the city is a scenic 15 minute seafront stroll or easy to reach by bus or by cab. Near to good schools including Brighton College, woodland walks and access to the Downs is easy and for commuters, the station serving Gatwick and London is about 15 minutes by bus. If you need a car, access to the coast road, A23/A27 is swift and permit zone H has no waiting list at the time of writing.
