Step inside this sensational home, nestled perfectly within the forever peaceful and blissful Sussex Square, being one of only three Grade I Listed squares in the country. This remarkable one-bedroom patio apartment is certainly not one to be missed as it boasts exceptional proportions throughout the entire home as well as an undeniable sense of privacy and warmth within the property.
As you approach the building, it is instantly noticeable the history that beckons upon this historic street. Originally built in 1830, by the historically well-known developer Sir Thomas Kemp, the grandeur of Sussex Square never fails to impress visitors and residents. The apartment is accessed through a wide and accommodating staircase located at the front of the building which leads on to a spacious landing, allowing for easy access to the apartment.
Stepping into the apartment you'll find a generous amount of built-in storage which is perfect for storing coats and shoes. The property has a spacious hallway which helps connect the apartment beautifully.
On your left, you are first introduced to the living room which has an abundance of space within it. The tall south-facing windows allow for a rich amount of natural light to flood in through the room magnificently.
Tucked away in the living room is the newly fitted kitchen and breakfast bar, which creates an ideal space for entertaining guests as well as enjoying your morning coffee. They say the kitchen is the heart of a home and the size of this kitchen certainly exceeds expectations in that respect. The kitchen is equipped with heaps of counter space and storage cupboards and has been fitted with an integrated oven, grill, extractor hood, dishwasher, microwave and a full-sized fridge-freezer.
Towards the righthand corner of the living room, you will find a quiet study space, equipped with plenty of built-in storage room and a full-sized desk, which is perfect for those who work from home.
Heading back into the corridor, you will find the first bathroom which is finished to an exceptional standard with slate grey tiles. This bathroom also contains a utility cupboard which houses a washing machine and a dryer; as well as plenty of storage space for other utilities.
Adjacent to the bathroom, you will find the bedroom which boasts spacious proportions and has heaps of built-in storage which is very thoughtfully laid out for modern living; with plug sockets and nightlamps all built in by the bedside. Accessed through the bedroom, you will find the ensuite shower room, which is a great size and benefits from a large window, and which has been finished with slate grey tiles.
To the rear of the apartment is access to the patio garden. The garden itself is currently low maintenance and is a private haven to retreat to at the end of the day, and for summer evening entertaining.
Sussex Square is often known as 'Belgravia by the sea', there are an abundance of chic local shops and cafés. This property holds one more secret, a key to the gated enclosures, six acres of landscaped gardens with a tunnel to the beach, said to have inspired the introduction to "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" by Lewis Carroll. It is just a stroll to the vibrant Kemp Town Village which is known for its cafes and delis, bars and pubs and independent shopping. The hospital and good schools including the award-winning Brighton College and Roedean School for girls is also nearby. The Marina is a few minutes away with a myriad of waterfront restaurants to choose from, as well as cinemas, a health club and a casino. Bus routes and a local e-bike share serving the city and station, with its fast links to Gatwick and London, are nearby.
