Inside this particular unit, he reception room is particularly impressive in scale, spanning over 20ft with a wide picture window framing open coastal views and access onto the balcony. The outlook is uninterrupted and expansive, stretching across the sea and down towards the Marina — a constantly changing backdrop throughout the seasons.
The separate kitchen/dining room sits adjacent and offers scope to reconfigure or redesign depending on preference, subject to the necessary consents. Currently functional, it offers clear potential to become a stylish contemporary space.
Both bedrooms are well-proportioned doubles. The principal bedroom benefits from built-in wardrobes and excellent natural light, while the second bedroom also offers fitted storage and flexibility as a guest room or home office.
The bathroom is currently arranged as a wet room and would benefit from updating, offering further opportunity to enhance both style and value.
While the apartment is in need of refurbishment throughout, the fundamentals are strong: position, scale, natural light and outlook. With thoughtful renovation, this could become a superb permanent residence, weekend retreat or investment in one of Brighton’s landmark buildings.
Agent’s Thoughts
“This is all about the view and the position. The apartment requires updating, but the proportions and outlook are exactly what buyers look for along the Kemp Town Seafront. It’s a genuine opportunity to create something special.”
Owner’s Secret
“This has been our father’s home for many happy years and he has truly loved living here. What he has enjoyed most is the wonderful sense of community within Marine Gate. It’s far more than just an apartment building — neighbours know one another, there’s a book club, regular social gatherings and a genuinely friendly atmosphere throughout. He always felt both independent and supported, with the sea on his doorstep and a welcoming community around him. It has been a very special place to call home.”
