Marine Parade, Brighton, East Sussex, BN2

Chic, secure and steps away from the beach, this sophisticated one bedroom apartment is an ideal first buy or investment, tucked away on the third floor of a beautiful Grade II building attributed to the famous Regency architects Busy and Wilds. Inside blends period proportion with a finely honed sense of contemporary style as the understated living room is a generous size with large windows, spotlights overhead and a sleek fireplace. The stylish kitchen is also practical with fitted appliances, the bedroom is peaceful and a classic bathroom is decorated in the colours of the sea. With the fashionable bars and cafés of Upper St James’s Street at the far end of the historic terrace this location is ideal for professionals who work in the city as major employers like the Royal Sussex County Hospital and Amex are within a 10 minute stroll. An enjoyable ramble down St James’s Street (on the Pride route) or scenic stroll along the seafront will take you to the picturesque Lanes, famous art venues or clubs, and if you need swift access to the airports, London or Portsmouth, the station is just 5 minutes by cab.

Although the seafront setting is fashionable, this elegant apartment has that rare balance between vibrant amenities around the corner and quietude. One building back from the seafront it is a stone’s throw from the beach, but on a one way street it is tucked away from the tourist trail. The grand entrance is secured by an answer phone system and inside, the communal hallway is clean and tidy.

Inside the apartment, inviting proportions remain unspoilt and the living room is a timeless beauty with ample space in which to relax, work from home and to entertain. Two large windows bring in plenty of Sussex sunlight so it is always inviting, and airy in summer, during winter it transforms into a welcoming haven when you dim the lights and put the fire on.

There’s an easy flow to the contemporary kitchen where streamlined units provide great storage and practical working surfaces. Well planned, there is a central electric hob and oven beneath a discreet hood and plumbing is already in place for a washing machine.

Simple but stylish, the double bedroom is comfortable with generous floorspace even with a large bed in it and close by, the modern bathroom serves your every need with a warming rail for towels and an electric shower above the bath, so water pressure shouldn’t be an issue.

Agent says:
“Light and spacious, this stylish apartment is a great first step on the ladder or solid investment within 10 minutes – on foot – of the Royal Sussex County Hospital and Amex.”

Owner’s secret:
“Although you are right by the beach you’re tucked away on a one way street away from the crowds of tourists.”
