2 bed Flat For Sale £500,000
Bristol Court, 142 Marine Parade, Brighton BN2


Description
Opposite our famous pebble beaches with stunning views of the English Channel from east to west, this two bedroom apartment offers a luxury lifestyle only prime waterfront properties can deliver. On the 3rd floor of a Regency building attributed to Busby & Wilds this graceful, bow fronted beauty was once part of the opulent Bristol Hotel and is now Grade II listed to acknowledge its Regency charm. Reached by lift, the spacious living room looks out to sea with ample space to enjoy in quiet contemplation or with company and just off centre stage, but still sociable, the kitchen is a study of petite perfection and good to go. Both double bedrooms have thick cream carpet and enjoy oblique coastal views, and the principal also has a wall of fitted wardrobes waiting for your move. In a sought after area of our fashionable coastal city, Kemptown Village has a vibrant café culture and hosts the County Hospital (a 5 minute walk from this apartment) and some of the best schools in the country, including Brighton College. Beach bars, volleyball courts and the waterfront restaurants of the Marina are easy to reach via the seasonal Dolphin lift, a scenic 15 minute stroll along the seafront takes you to the picturesque Georgian Lanes and cultural heart of the city, and the station serving the airports and London are easy to reach on foot, by bus or by cab.

Council Tax: Tbc

This iconic, bow fronted Regency building opposite the beach is a great find within an historic quarter of the city where you are never far from fresh coffee and a croissant – or a glass of wine when work is done. Set back from the seafront behind a large car park offering first come first served parking, five Regency houses were joined together to become a world class hotel, three of which share this grand entrance where an inner revolving door leads into a magnificent lobby with fine period detail – and a lift discreetly tucked away.

On the exclusive southeast corner of this sensitive conversion into luxury homes, all of the main rooms in this sunny apartment have sea views. Triple windows line the curved south wall of the spacious living room and follow the sun from its rise to its setting with panoramic views sweeping from the Marina in the east to the bay of Worthing in the west. There is ample footage for a private workspace as well as for defined areas where guests can relax and dine in rare seclusion, and classic wood underfoot and subtle decoration keeps the focus on the picture postcard vista which includes the pebbled beaches as you approach the windows. Just off centre stage but still allowing for the chef to be sociable, the streamlined kitchen is galley in name but not in nature, beautifully planned to deliver plenty of storage and working surfaces, two levels of lighting, plumbing for a dishwasher and a washing machine and an integrated hob, oven and hood.

Central to the apartment, the contemporary bathroom has a designer finish with chic stone detail, dual head shower above the bath and a warming rail for towels, whilst a lit cabinet above the hand basin and sleek vanity below it ramp up the glamour.

Beautifully proportioned with oblique views of the coast, the first of the double bedrooms is a generous size for guests or sharers and is ready to move into with thick cream carpet. Next door, looking east for the morning sunlight, the principal bedroom has unspoilt Regency grace and space with views along the Regency mansion opposite to the sparkle of the sea, and there is a wall of floor to ceiling fitted wardrobes providing all the storage you could dream of.

Agent says:

“Our world famous, historic seafront is really special, acknowledged as one of the most impressive in the UK - and Bristol Court is a great favourite, equidistant between the cultural heart of the city which clusters around the Royal Pavilion and the glamorous Marina, both only a 15-20 minute stroll by the sea.”

Owner’s secret:

“A relaxing retreat with beautiful proportions and stunning views come rain or shine, it is a pleasure to return to after a busy day in the city and you are surrounded by cafés, bistro bars and restaurants when you don’t feel like cooking! With plenty of space to entertain, friends love to stay as we can reach the landmarks of the city – like the Pier- easily and there is almost 24/7 hour access to the station and airports, so they don’t need to use a car.”
