2 bed Flat For Sale £700,000
| Open Day Saturday 3rd September |
In an exclusive location opposite Hove Lawns and the beach, this beautiful two double bedroom apartment is a private sanctuary with a spacious garden to enjoy. A flawless reimagining of the lower floor of one of the twin, south facing protective wings of Decimus Burton’s Adelaide Crescent, designed in 1830 to frame the sea, it is ideal as a luxury retreat or high end investment. New life breathes through this glorious, Grade II* listed home which offers a perfect balance of sophisticated, waterfront living in a classically proportioned living/dining room where friends and family can relax in complete seclusion and admire a separate but sociable high end kitchen. Two large bedrooms are light and stylish and the luxury principal en suite includes an airy room for working from home. Outside, an unusually large, landscaped garden has ample space, skilfully designed for glamorous entertaining. Tucked away from the tourists it is just a 4 minute stroll from the fashionable al fresco lifestyle of Church Road and international shopping of Western Road. Brighton &Hove attracts professionals, small families and investors seeking fresh air, a healthy lifestyle and good schools for their children, and the whole of the city is easy to get to on foot, by bus or cab from this convenient spot, with Hove train station serving Gatwick, Portsmouth and London a 20-25 minute walk or 6 minutes by cab.

Why you’ll like it:
Grade II* listed Adelaide Crescent is one of the finest Regency developments within the UK framing manicured central gardens and the English Channel. A prime address, although just minutes from the thriving cafés, bars and restaurants of our famous coastal resort, returning past the leafy grounds it feels a world away – and you definitely leave any noise behind in this quiet haven on the lower floor of this magnificent centrepiece of the crescent’s south facing wing.
Sharing the entrance and a secret, south facing courtyard with only one other home, built in an age reliant on natural light this apartment with high ceilings and huge windows has plenty of it, and inside has roared into the 21st century with inspired design and a luxury finish.
Opening to a hallway which runs ahead with glimpses of distant rooms, attractive wood floors continue through into a living/dining room of classic beauty where the ceiling soars to approximately 2.925 metres overhead, and two broad windows almost fill the south wall to bring in the Sussex sunshine. Light and airy by day, at night there is a choice of ambient lighting. There is ample floorspace for work, rest or play and in the far wall, a sociable breakfast bar invites company and frames a view to the design led kitchen.
With stylish matt units which inspired the colour used in the living room, this high end kitchen is also practical with a thoughtful layout and plenty of Corian working surfaces. Skilfully planned with entertaining in mind twin Bosch grill and fan ovens are at eye level, and a Neff touch induction hob is beneath a discreet extractor. In addition, a tall fridge, undercounter freezer, dishwasher and washing machine are also integrated for you.
Tucked quietly away at the end of the hallway, the first of the double bedrooms is a peaceful retreat with views over your private garden and triple, custom built wardrobes which conceal sophisticated storage. Next door – so the bedrooms do not share a wall – a luxury bathroom has a spa-like finish with marble underfoot, a rainfall head over the contemporary bath and a sleek vanity unit below the hand basin and lit mirror above it.
Hidden around the corner, the principal suite is a serene sanctuary which is not directly overlooked and enjoys a restful view of the landscaped garden. Painted cabinets in traditional style open to reveal organised storage and there is a chic en suite shower room with natural light and timeless palette of black and white. At the back of the room, you can work in quiet seclusion in a spacious home office with built in shelving, and it opens to the garden when work is done.
Outside, this spacious garden is the perfect, sheltered alternative to the heat of the beach and an oasis of calm, it is easy to forget that our famous coastal party resort is on the doorstep. An L shaped, hard wood dining deck has space for both dining in comfort and a large bbq, and a raised paved terrace with inset LED lighting allows guests to relax in an elegant space ideal for the al fresco lifestyle our coastal resort is famous for.
Agent says:
“Tucked quietly away in a prime location within an iconic Regency crescent opposite the sea and Hove Lawns – which host events during our legendary festivals- this spacious, garden apartment is a rare find as properties here simply do not come on the market very often, for obvious reasons!”
Owner’s secret:
“We love the sea and we are only 30 seconds from it so we go every day! The crescent is beautiful, and we feel very lucky to have lived in this special, Regency setting, which was the first part of the crescent to be built. We have also enjoyed the balance between being sociable in the gardens or Hove Lawns but also being able to entertain privately in the courtyard at home. Cool in summer and warm in winter the apartment is always a joy to return to and friends comment on its relaxed feel -and it is always quiet inside even though we are only minutes from the cities fashionable shopping and night life. The neighbours are friendly and we have a residents association, and the building is share of freehold, so very well run.”
