Enjoy a guilt free, luxury lifestyle in this chic, eco sensitive two bedroom apartment where a private balcony looks over a broad walkway and a large communal roof garden is perfect for parties. At the pedestrian heart of the award winning New England Quarter and above a peaceful garden courtyard at the back it is quieter than its fabulous, central location may suggest, just three minutes from the station and the vibrant al fresco lifestyle and shopping of North Laine. The big open plan living room has a cheerful east/west orientation and friends will enjoy people watching when they spill out to the first floor sheltered balcony. Ideal for investors, family or if you want to share, a central bathroom is ready for use and both bedrooms, one with an en suite shower room, are inviting doubles – and do not share a wall. Outside, a short stroll takes you to the local pedestrian square which has a Sainsbury’s, a Japanese store and a restaurant, so locals like to come here for lunch in the sun, and 2 minutes from a popular primary school and just 10 -15 minutes from the beach, there is something for everyone in this sought after location.

In one of the most popular blocks within the development with a pedestrian walkway at the front and planted courtyard at the back, this first floor apartment is quiet and fume free, and it is also very secure. Inside, the hallway is lined with storage and this stylish apartment is well kept and ready to move into.

Light and airy, the sun filled living room offers open plan living at its most sophisticated with a large window at the far end, whilst glass doors almost fill the east wall and open to a chic balcony with space for a table and chairs, where guests can bathe in the Sussex sunshine and enjoy the open views which sweep over lower buildings to the striking roof of our famous ‘Ark’ (Wagner’s church of 1874) and on to the hills of Hanover. Inside has ample room for work, rest or play and safely tucked away from the in/out flow the streamlined kitchen is thoughtfully planned and good to go with a choice of ambient lighting levels, an electric hob and oven beneath a hood, a fridge, freezer and dishwasher, and plumbing is in place for a washing machine.

Central to the apartment, the luxury bathroom is bright and cheerful with a shower attachment and sleek storage beneath the hand basin. Close by, the first of the double bedrooms is simple but stylish with 12’ x 10’4 (3.7m x 3.2m) to work with and fitted wardrobes. Looking over a pedestrian walkway, so there is no passing traffic, the peaceful principal bedroom is also ready for your move with calm décor, ample built in storage, generous space even with a double bed in situ and a chic en suite shower room.

Outside, the roof terrace is a social hub. Large and sunny with wonderful views to share and beautifully designed to get the sun all day, but there are also plenty of more sheltered areas for gatherings.

Agent says:
“One of the first of its kind in our innovative, coastal city this exciting development re imagines the way we live, offering an eco- sensitive, traffic free environment in a fabulous location.”

Owner’s secret:
“We needed to be close to the station and were amazed at how quiet it is here with no traffic at the front or the back, and we like to sit on the balcony to discuss our weekend plans with a glass in hand and watch people pass by on the way to the main square. Our neighbours are friendly and we often join them on the roof terrace which has amazing views. The square is sociable, as lots of locals sit there for lunch who always say hello and it is extremely useful to have Sainsbury’s on the doorstep which opens early and closes late if you work at the hospitals or commute.”
