With use of 7.5 acres of listed gardens for the residents with a tunnel to the beach this elegant, 1 bed apartment in Kemp’s masterpiece Sussex Square discreetly blends Regency proportions with a contemporary lifestyle including a home office which could double as an occasional bedroom for guests. Just 10 mins drive from Brighton Station’s direct trains to Gatwick and London and about 7 by cab (or a scenic 25 min seafront stroll) from the picturesque cultural heart of the city, this property is very quiet on the 1st floor, and has 54.81m2 (589.36 sq. ft.) of sun-lit rooms in which to spread your wings.
Inside all of the rooms have high ceilings and big windows and the kitchen, at the heart of the home, is well organised. Quiet and comfortable the dual aspect bedroom is light and inviting, and the modern bathroom has all you need and a vintage finish. Grade I listed to acknowledge its classic beauty, there are friendly local shops, cafés and bistro bars close by and the County Hospital is an 8 min walk. Historic Kemptown has an al fresco lifestyle and plenty of amenities including a weekly farmer’s market, and the area is well served for green spaces which hold events during our legendary festivals.

Why you’ll like it:
Conceived by Thomas Kemp and built by Thomas Cubitt between 1823-1827 as Belgravia by the Sea, Grade I listed Sussex Square is recognised as one of the of the UK’s most important Regency treasures and is one of only a few in our coastal city which have private gardens for the residents, and is possibly the only listed Regency, garden development on a south facing seafront.
Adorned by Doric columns an impressive secure entrance opens to a hushed communal hall. Precious period detail includes a fine example of a Regency staircase which sweeps up to the first floor where this apartment is quietly located at the rear.
Through the front door, an inviting room decorated in a calm colour with plenty of storage has 3.75m x 2.66m (12’3 x 8’8) of versatile space which could be a dining area and a study as well as an occasional bedroom for guests as it has the airy bathroom with a shower over the bath next door.
There’s an easy flow along the level hall to the spacious kitchen. A welcoming social space, it is bright and cheerful and it is well planned with a central electric hob and oven, practical storage and working surfaces and plumbing for a washing machine.
Ahead, the living room is a generous 3.78m x 3.18m (12’4 x 10’5) and it is a peaceful retreat to enjoy come rain or shine.
Private and peaceful at the back, sunlight streams through a principal bedroom of dual aspect which has the serenity only a creative combination of classic dimensions and sensitive eye can deliver whilst fuss free decoration keeps the focus firmly on the open view at the back
