Description
The building is a prominent grade II listed end-of-terrace building within the Valley Gardens conservation area. It is listed as part of a terrace of former townhouses, which date from the early 19th century but which have been considerably altered.

The property is arranged over five storeys (plus lower ground level), with the benefit of front street access from both Pavilion Parade and the return elevation on Pavilion Street.

The property is attractive and its architecture is typical Regency, on a grand scale and the property was subject to major internal alterations/rebuilding in the 1980s, and a large modern extension was built to the rear, facing Pavilion Street adjacent to the public house. The interior of the property has been substantially altered over time, to include a passenger lift, and until very recently has provided educational classrooms /meeting space for the University of Brighton.

Location
10-11 Pavilion Parade is located within the ‘beating heart’ of Brighton city centre just north of Old Steine opposite the Royal Pavilion. Only a stone’s throw from the beach, The Lanes, the city centre’s shopping and leisure offer. Predominately situated on the corner of Pavilion Street close to Edward Street.
Brighton Railway Station is located to the northwest via Church Street and Queens Road (12 minutes walk). The city centre is well served by many bus services with Old Steine stops D and F nearby. The busy A23 is a major arterial route into Brighton. To the north London Road links to the A27 bypass providing access to the A23/M23 and the national motorway network via the M25.
