Living Room & Dining Room:
Impressive, with high ceilings and dual aspect windows to bathe the room in natural light, the living room and dining room offer ample space for entertaining in style or relaxing with the family. During winter, the fireplace is open to bring warmth to the room, while in summer the front sashes allow a cool coastal breeze to flow through. The bay is shuttered to give privacy from the street – although it is incredibly peaceful for somewhere so central with very little footfall other than neighbours. To the front of the room is space for generous soft furnishings while the rear of the room has space for a dining table to seat eight, ideal for dinner parties or large family meals.
Kitchen & Patio:
Beautifully appointed, using a modern take on a period scheme, the kitchen has a modern range cooker situated in the original hearth and traditional Shaker cabinetry set below white Corian worktops. Below these, the fridge and dishwasher are integrated, alongside ample storage and space for a kitchen table for informal meals. A deep bay at the far end of the room allows natural light to filter through from the west while a door allows access to the patio garden which becomes a welcome extension of the home during summer for drinks and dinner alfresco. It is paved for easy maintenance and has tall white walls to bounce the light around. It would be simple to add colour and scent with potted plants if desired.
First Floor Reception Room & Bathroom:
Mirroring the Living room and dining room below, the principal bedroom spans the first floor where the ceilings are even higher and the windows full height with sashes opening to a full width Juliet balcony. Two rooms have been opened to create one large and elegant space with a dressing room to the rear and relaxation space to the front. Even with a king size bed, the floor space is not compromised allowing for a seating area, if need be, within the deep bay. Two fireplaces add decoration and character to the room, to be used as mantels for ornaments to decorate the space. A useful separate WC is easy to access on the half-landing.
Study & Roof Terrace:
To the rear of the first floor, a sweet study room is peacefully tucked away, ideal for those needing to work from home. It would also work well as a child’s room, close to their parents when waking at night, or as a hobby room with a door leading out to the roof terrace. Out here, you can hear the call of the gulls, yet you feel miles from the city centre. It is private and sheltered with a westerly aspect to enjoy sunsets with a sundowner during summer.
Second Floor Bedroom & Bathroom:
Continuing in the same elegant palette and style, the second-floor bedroom is another substantial double room with an easterly aspect and sea views from its wide bay window. With the main bathroom completing this floor, it feels like a second principal bedroom en suite with the bathroom easy to access across the landing. It has spa-like qualities with a freestanding roll top slipper bath offering a modern take on the period style. A separate double shower allows a speedy morning routine, and a marble topped vanity unit offers a final flourish of luxury. Third Floor Bedrooms & Shower Room:
Elevated higher on the top floor are two further double bedrooms with built-in wardrobes, period fireplaces and charming views over the historic landscape. They share use of a modern shower room lined in slate grey tiles with a roomy cubicle and ample storage below the basin. Positioned at the top of the house ensures a truly peaceful and rested night’s sleep.
Lower Ground Floor Apartment:
The lower ground floor can be completely self-contained with its own street entrance and access to a rear patio. To the front, the double bedroom is perfectly private from the street, while the living room sits centrally to the apartment and has ample space for relaxation and formal dining in front of an entertainment wall. There is easy access to the kitchenette and utility room which leads through to a modern shower room and access to a private patio area with space for summer seating and plants to climb up its tall walls bringing colour and fragrance to the space. Perfect as an extra income, the flat can achieve £1250 rental income PCM, or it would be ideal for au pairs or for family members looking to stay long term.
Vendor’s Comments:
“We have adored living here with the beach on our doorstep and the wonders of Kemp Town ‘Village’ on our doorstep. There is a welcoming energy to the area and its is steeped in history, so you can’t help but feel a sense of grandeur every time you come home. The seafront here has seen a huge amount of regeneration with Sea Lanes open swimming pool and the reopening of the Reading Room Community Hub & Café and you can stroll along the prom with ease into the city centre for a night at the theatre. We no longer need the space, but we will be sad to leave.”

Good to Know:
During the early 19th Century, Brighton was transformed from a quiet fishing village into one of the most fashionable and wealthy towns in the country. From the early 1820s, these uniquely beautiful townhouses rose up along the seafront, with their exquisite architectural features echoing those within the capital. The relaxed culture of Kemp Town Village is just moments around the corner from this unique home. Here you’ll find delicatessens, restaurants, foodie pubs and cafes, alongside boutique and vintage shops. The beach is on your doorstep and is quieter this side east of the pier with the newly restored Reading Room Community Hub & Café looking out over the beach. Sea Lanes outdoor swimming pool is open all year round and Soho House’s Brighton Beach House has opened within walking distance of this property. It also sits within minutes of The Amex Business Centre, Law Courts and the RSC Hospital as well as the historic heart of the city where you’ll find theatres, museums and the bohemian North Laine Shopping District.
