Percival Terrace, Brighton BN2


Description
** Guide Price £800,000 - £850,000 **

International architectural design embraces the majesty of the English Channel in this luxury three bedroom apartment within an iconic Regency terrace opposite the beach. In a prime location favoured by celebrities for its laid back attitude and vibrant al fresco lifestyle, Percival Mansions was reconfigured in the late 1980's complete with steel frame, double glazing and a lift, and no expense has been spared in a stunning, new refurbishment which has transformed this split level home into a unique property blending magnificent historic proportions with a sophisticated finish and attention to detail rare to the market. The beautiful reception has windows soaring to 4.154m overhead to frame a glorious, oblique coastal vista and a custom made tg Dream kitchen is tucked away behind a sociable seating bar with ingenious storage and high end appliances. Ideal for work or play, all three bedrooms are glamorous doubles- which don't share a wall - with the VIP guest room enjoying glamorous features and a fantasy principal en suite. Kemptown Village attracts professionals and families seeking fresh air, privacy and a healthy lifestyle with swift access to the city centre (15-20 minutes on foot), Amex Stadium, Gatwick or London and local schools include some of the best in the country, including Brighton College.

Expert design using expensive materials and experienced craftmanship has created a fabulous home where deceptively simple elegance masks a skilled commitment to a luxury lifestyle. An intelligent reimagining of Regency glamour, the refurbishment has also been thorough with new electrics and mood lighting, plumbing including anthracite decorative radiators, fibre optic wi-fi, television points in the main rooms, oak doors and high grade flooring throughout, underfloor heating in the reception, bespoke tg kitchen area and two of the bathrooms, hidden utility space, and the best of 21st century fittings are in keeping with the age of the building, such as the designer bathrooms, high level skirting and elegant moulded covings.

Through a Doric columned porch on the eastern side of the building, the grand entrance is secured by a phone system. Inside, a hushed hallway is clearly cared for, and a lift to take you up to this glorious, chain free apartment is tucked away to the right.

The open plan reception:

Beautiful proportions bring Regency Brighton to life in this reception of classical beauty, ideal for impressive entertaining and instantly restful after a long day in the city. Triple windows stretch from the classic oak floor to a soaring ceiling adorned by antique chandeliers which could stay subject to circumstance, and bring in glittering, oblique views of the sea sweeping from the sunrise in the east to open water to the south. As you step up to enjoy this magnificent room, handmade bookcases from the rac club in London can prove their historic provenance and bought specifically for the room, the owners are happy to discuss their staying. With an open plan 25'1'' x 21'1'' in which to spread your wings, tucked away behind a stylish seating bar, the bespoke tg Baldai kitchen has streamlined storage concealing sophisticated storage and a water filter whilst high end integrated appliances include a dishwasher, fridge, freezer, Neff touch induction hob, hood, and microwave as well as a "Great British Bake Off" inspired oven.

The first floor double bedroom/home office, shower room and principal suite:

Quiet, comfortable and not directly overlooked, the first of the double bedrooms is a light and spacious place from which to work from home or perfect for visitors as next door, the chic shower room has luxury fittings including a German rain shower and underfloor heating beneath the Fired Earth tiling.

Across the hallway, steps rise to a private principal bedroom facing east for the morning sunshine with relaxing sea views through the twin tall windows fitted with colonial shutters which are included. With ample floorspace for a four poster bed and all the closet space you could wish for, there's also an astounding 3.326m of ceiling height to enjoy and the romantic cherub light fitting could also stay. Stepped down from the main sleeping area behind a glass divide, the sunken bathroom retains the essence of the building with a stately baignoir with traditional shower attachment and the w.c. Is carefully tucked away out of sight - but there is nothing old fashioned about the designer finish which includes electric underfloor heat and Roca fixtures.

The second floor guest suite:

The upper level is ideal for guests as this hallway, like the one beneath, also has a door to the communal passage and lift, so they can come and go without disturbing the main apartment. Also reached via a sculptural oak and glass staircase with a bird's eye view of the splendid reception and the coastal vista, the guest room is a glorious dual aspect retreat, inviting company with thick carpet, a fitted closet and fabulous freestanding chrome bath with sea views.

Agent says:

"A skilled reimagining of the Regency style delivers a unique coastal home expertly designed to make the most of the seafront setting, and although you step into a glamorous lifestyle where every room has a designer finish, it is also an inviting, comfortable haven ideal for sharing
with friends and family."

Owner's secret:

"In a wonderful seafront setting, the views are always stunning whether blue skies or stormy – if we could take this vista with us we would! We designed the apartment as a comprehensive unit from top to bottom from the flowing layout (it used to have four, smaller bedrooms) to the precise interior design so it is easy to enjoy together or with friends and family. Every room is light and spacious and just 10-15 minutes' walk from the city centre along the promenade it is always a pleasure to bring friends back. Kemptown Village is friendly with good schools and all the amenities you need including a farmer's market, Boots and small Co-Op and we have swift access to things we enjoy as a couple- music, theatre and restaurants."
