Homes in this exclusive, gated mews do not appear on the market often and this immaculate three bedroom house has a garage – almost unheard of in Kemptown Village! With a Grade II listed entrance, this private mews brims with character with plants and seating outside many of the homes indicating its friendly nature. This hidden gem is tucked away at the pedestrian end of this quiet mews in a prime location 3 minutes on foot to the sea and the Royal County Hospital, 4 to Brighton College and the station serving London via Gatwick under 10 minutes by cab.
Inside is design-led right from the start, with a Roger Oates stair runner off the chic entrance hall decorated in the historic hues of Farrow & Ball, which you will see throughout the house. The spacious reception has classic elegance and a flame effect gas fire, whilst the kitchen diner has a fabulous Kenwood range. Upstairs, the attention to detail continues in all three bedrooms, one of which is used as a dressing room, and two enjoy high end bathrooms en suite. A magnet for professionals, families and investors, Kemptown Village has an al fresco lifestyle and plenty of amenities including a weekly farmer’s market, small Co-Op, Boots and a bookshop.

With the wow factor as soon as you walk in, the entrance hall is skilfully tiled, a chic cloakroom is tucked away and the heritage hues of the Roger Oates carpet runner, matched with those of Farrow & Ball on the wall, introduce you to the sophisticated tone of the elegant interior.
To the left, the spacious reception radiates charm with solid oak flooring and custom made window seat beneath the west window which has traditional, lit cabinets on each side. With dimmer switches for ambient lighting it is a restful retreat to return to, and guests can relax in rare seclusion in front of a flame effect gas fire in a classic surround.
Across the hallway, the kitchen diner is ideal for entertaining and with a natural slate floor, gleaming wood surfaces and ample storage it is good to go. Integrated appliances include a fridge, freezer, dishwasher, washing machine and a drier, and the steel, Kenwood multi fuel range could stay, subject to circumstance.
Up beneath a skylight to bring light into the heart of the home, at the top of a surprisingly broad staircase, a central bedroom is lined with organised storage as it is used as a glamorous dressing room – but it could easily be the perfect spot from which to work from home or revert easily to an inviting bedroom for guests.
On each side of the landing, you are spoilt for choice of a principal bedroom as both airy rooms have grace and space. To the right, the generous double room is simple but stylish, and its chic en-suite is large enough for a bath with a dual headed shower above it. Across the hall, the principal suite is a dream come true with ample fitted wardrobes concealing organised spaces, and the luxury en-suite shower room could have stepped out of a glossy magazine.
Agent says:
“Live our coastal city’s celebrated lifestyle to the full with pebble beaches, al fresco bars, cafés and restaurants, legendary festivals and international culture all on the doorstep – but return to peace, privacy, parking and security in this special gated mews house which is good to go.”
Owner’s secret:
“The beach is just a short stroll around the corner and you can be in a café, bar or restaurant literally within seconds – but you can’t hear anything in the mews! If you want live music or theatre, the Lanes are about a 15 minute walk either along the seafront or St James’s Street – which has plenty of its own bars and eateries to choose from. We love the balance between the liveliness of the city and the tranquillity of the mews, and the gates (and lovely neighbours) means it is very secure if you – or your partner- work away a lot. We have enjoyed this bright and cheerful home where friends love to visit with so much to enjoy on the doorstep, (including race days at the racecourse for entertaining work colleagues!) and we hope you will love it as much as we have.”
