Guide price; £2,000,000--£2,250,000.Internal viewings available on request.Family homes of this calibre don’t come onto the market every day. Newly renovated with an exceptional finish throughout, an abundance of original period features and a wealth of modern technologies, this Victorian villa has an air of grandeur like no other.No corners have been cut in the renovation, the house has a new kitchen; new heating and plumbing systems in all five bathrooms; new fixtures, fittings and decoration throughout; and new double-glazed timber-framed sashes.It sits well back from the road behind architectural planting and a circular driveway, while to the rear, the plot stretches back over a third of an acre to include a sizable coach house which is ripe for renovation.The lower floor of the property has been converted for use as a self-contained apartment, but is currently home to the gym, cinema room and games room with bar – but these are versatile spaces depending on the needs of the family.Its proximity to several popular schools, both state and private; several beautiful parks and the South Downs; the A23/A27 and Preston Park train station, mean this house would be desirable to families and professionals looking to live in comfort and luxury in Brighton & Hove.Style: Semi-detached Victorian villaType: 5-7 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms (4 en suite) + 2 WC, open plan kitchen diner, 3-4 reception rooms, 1 study, 1 lgf kitchen, 1 gym, 1 utility room.Location: Preston Park Conservation AreaFloor Area: 5008 sq. Ft.Outside: Exceptional west facing rear garden with coach house, mature planting to the frontParking: Circular drive with space for several carsCouncil Tax Band: FWhy you’ll like it:Set well back from the road behind boundary walls and a gated drive, this semi-detached Victorian villa is both beautiful and imposing. The driveway encircles well-established structural planting, with mature trees adding to the peace and privacy. Built in 1868, this house was always intended as a grand residence which would balance home comforts with a luxurious lifestyle. The exquisite architectural detailing and ornate period features both inside and out were certainly set to impress. Now over 150 years later, they have been brought back to their original grandeur, to last for centuries to come.The scale and beauty of the house become apparent as you sweep up the drive then ascend the wide, classically tiled steps to the grand front door. The pilasters and quoin stones are picked out in white against contemporary grey while the ironwork and door gleam in gloss black.Stepping inside, the original character of the house shines through in the restored period features which are immediately apparent to include the original brass ring bells and entrance hall floor tiles in the vestibule. Ceilings soar with beautiful cornicing and roses, while the skirting boards are deep. New engineered oak flooring runs throughout the ground floor and it is clear the current owners have a refined eye for interiors.Sitting Room:The first reception to the right would have been the formal dining room or a second sitting room perhaps; looking out over the front garden to the east. Taking centre stage is a grand marble fireplace with an open fire which is wonderfully atmospheric when lit. Traditional column radiators in brass are new and the wide bay window is dressed in hard wood plantation shutters which can be found throughout the house to dress the new double-glazed sashes. Heritage colours have been used throughout which work well in rooms of this size. Spacious yet homely, this room is ideal for both relaxation and entertaining after dinner.Kitchen & Dining Room:Once two reception rooms, these rooms have since been opened to create one large and sociable space spanning the rear of the house leading out to the canopied veranda. Another open fire with a pale marble surround brings warmth and atmosphere to wintery suppers, where there is space to seat at least twelve around a pendent lit table.Open to the room, the German design Nolte two-tone kitchen is over-sized to suit the space and comes fitted with luxury Siemens integrated appliances. On the large island with plenty a teppanyaki hot plate sits alongside an induction hob and a gas fired wok burner which in turn sit below a remote controlled ceiling mounted extractor fan. The island also provides seating for 4 and plenty of additional cupboard and drawer space. Dual ovens are WiFi enabled with steam and microwave functions, and space has been left for an American fridge freezer which may be negotiable with the sale. To ensure the quartz stone worktops remain clutter free, a Quooker boiling water tap has been fitted and the dishwasher is also integrated. Engineered oak makes way for urban-concrete floor tiles with under floor heating.The Garden & Coach House:While it is believed that the veranda is a later addition, it remains in keeping with the property with decorative floor tiles and ornate ironwork below its canopied roof. It runs the length of the building and is the perfect spot to catch the last of the sun before it dips below the western ridge of Preston Valley. From here you can cast a gaze over your land - which is what you can call a plot of this size; over the extensive lawns, edged with mature borders and beds abundant with fruits. A weeping birch, hibiscus and ginkgo biloba plants add colour and shape, and the original flint walls climbing with clematis add history and character. There is a spacious patio area and the lawns are amply sized for children’s ball games and play equipment which could easily be hidden from view at the rear of the garden if need be. Fruit trees are abundant, festooned with figs, plums and apples while rosemary adds scent, then at the far end of the garden there is access to the old stable and coach house.Peacefully positioned, this building could have a plethora of uses. It is currently used as a store room, but it has been a teenage den in previous years, and with electricity, plus three rooms over two storeys, it could be transformed into a superb holiday let. The possibilities are plentiful, and with side access from the front of the house, it has once been an idea to develop the land further. Planning for a separate dwelling was once given by the local authority, so it may be granted once more – all food for thought!The Lower Ground Floor Apartment:With its own street access, and encompassing the entire ground floor of the house, the lower ground floor has potential to be completely self-contained. However, the renovations have transformed this level into the family’s entertainment space, to include a gym, a cinema room with a projector and built-in sound systems, and a games room with a bar and pool table (all fixtures in these rooms can be negotiated separately with the sale). Having been fully damp proofed, sound proofed, redecorated and renovated to include new windows, each room is versatile depending on need. They could become bedrooms, reception rooms or work spaces, and there is a second fitted kitchen complete with appliances. This floor also has a separate shower room with underfloor heating, and a separate heating system from the rest of the house, making it ideal as a rental to provide an extra income or for an au pair, long-term staying family members, or grown-up children looking for some independence while remaining close to home. The utility room is also on this floor with space for two machines.First Floor Bedroom 2 & Bathroom:Climbing the carpeted stairs, the original mahogany banister curves organically up to the first-floor landing. From here there are two generous double bedrooms including the principal suite. Bedroom two has a working period fireplace and soft grey carpet underfoot and tall sash windows facing east with open views up tree-lined Harrington Road. The ensuite bathroom has a modern take on a period style with wooden wall panels and patterned floor tiles, plus traditional fittings to the bath and separate rainfall shower. The water cylinder is housed in the linen cupboards in here, and there is ample storage in the bedroom for larger pieces of furniture without compromising on space.Master Bedroom Suite:Also on the first floor, the master bedroom suite is peacefully positioned to the rear of the house enjoying verdant garden views. As expected, it is a generous room with grey carpet, shuttered windows and an original built-in wardrobe alongside another open fireplace. Adjoining it is the dressing room fitted with built-in storage and additional space for a dressing table if need be. From here, the elegant ensuite bathroom is again in keeping with the period of the house with a freestanding roll-top bath, heritage colours and patterned tiles on the floor, underfloor heating, and walls around the separate shower cubicle.Second floor Bedrooms:Uniquely, this house has two staircases from the first-floor landing to the second-floor rooms. The first staircase takes you to two large double bedrooms which have been built into the loft space, yet in a house of such scale, the headroom is not compromised in the slightest. Both have a great deal of storage and ensuite shower rooms in keeping with those on the first floor.Study:The second staircase leads to a tranquil home office which is perfectly tucked away in the tower and has a bespoke built in work space and bookshelves. The views are even more inspiring the higher up the house you go, and should you wish to use this room as a bedroom, there is ample space for a double bed in here.Agent’s thoughts:This is a house which needs to be seen to be fully appreciated. The incredible respect the current owners have for the character of the house is breath-taking, and it is clear no corners have been cut in its creation. It is such a pleasure to see a house of such scale brought back to its original splendour. It also benefits from solar panels on both the coach house and on its roof, which brings in approximately £1200 per annum and goes towards the house energy bills.Owner’s secret“We were bowled over by the scale and beauty of this house and feel honoured to have been the ones to breathe new life into it. It is an incredible family home and we have enjoyed every inch of it – entertaining friends and just spending time together, and we cannot fault the location. It is unusual to find a house and garden of this size in such a well-connected area of Brighton.”Where it isShops: Local 1 min walk, North Laine 10 min bus rideStation: Preston Park 3 min walk, Brighton Station 4 min by trainSeafront or Park: Preston Park 4 min walk, seafront 15 min bus rideClosest Schools:Primary: Westdene Primary, Balfour Primary, St Bernadettes rcSecondary: Varndean and Dorothy Stringer, Cardinal Newman rcSixth Form Colleges: Varndean College, bhasvic, Newman CollegePrivate: Brighton College; Lancing Prep.This is a vast and impressive family home in a popular location which is well served for shops, parks and schools.

The A23/A27 and train station are also within easy reach, for those requiring fast links to the universities, Gatwick or London on a daily or weekly basis.

Newly renovated with an exceptional finish throughout, an abundance of original period features and a wealth of modern technologies, this Victorian villa has an air of grandeur like no other.No corners have been cut in the renovation, the house has a new kitchen; new heating and plumbing systems in all five bathrooms; new fixtures, fittings and decoration throughout; and new double-glazed timber-framed sashes.It sits well back from the road behind architectural planting and a circular driveway, while to the rear, the plot stretches back over a third of an acre to include a sizable coach house which is ripe for renovation.The lower floor of the property has been converted for use as a self-contained apartment, but is currently home to the gym, cinema room and games room with bar – but these are versatile spaces depending on the needs of the family.Its proximity to several popular schools, both state and private; several beautiful parks and the South Downs; the A23/A27 and Preston Park train station, mean this house would be desirable to families and professionals looking to live in comfort and luxury in Brighton & Hove.Style: Semi-detached Victorian villaType: 5-7 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms (4 en suite) + 2 WC, open plan kitchen diner, 3-4 reception rooms, 1 study, 1 lgf kitchen, 1 gym, 1 utility room.Location: Preston Park Conservation AreaFloor Area: 5008 sq. Ft.Outside: Exceptional west facing rear garden with coach house, mature planting to the frontParking: Circular drive with space for several carsCouncil Tax Band: FWhy you’ll like it:Set well back from the road behind boundary walls and a gated drive, this semi-detached Victorian villa is both beautiful and imposing. The driveway encircles well-established structural planting, with mature trees adding to the peace and privacy. Built in 1868, this house was always intended as a grand residence which would balance home comforts with a luxurious lifestyle. The exquisite architectural detailing and ornate period features both inside and out were certainly set to impress. Now over 150 years later, they have been brought back to their original grandeur, to last for centuries to come.The scale and beauty of the house become apparent as you sweep up the drive then ascend the wide, classically tiled steps to the grand front door. The pilasters and quoin stones are picked out in white against contemporary grey while the ironwork and door gleam in gloss black.Stepping inside, the original character of the house shines through in the restored period features which are immediately apparent to include the original brass ring bells and entrance hall floor tiles in the vestibule. Ceilings soar with beautiful cornicing and roses, while the skirting boards are deep. New engineered oak flooring runs throughout the ground floor and it is clear the current owners have a refined eye for interiors.Sitting Room:The first reception to the right would have been the formal dining room or a second sitting room perhaps; looking out over the front garden to the east. Taking centre stage is a grand marble fireplace with an open fire which is wonderfully atmospheric when lit. Traditional column radiators in brass are new and the wide bay window is dressed in hard wood plantation shutters which can be found throughout the house to dress the new double-glazed sashes. Heritage colours have been used throughout which work well in rooms of this size. Spacious yet homely, this room is ideal for both relaxation and entertaining after dinner.Kitchen & Dining Room:Once two reception rooms, these rooms have since been opened to create one large and sociable space spanning the rear of the house leading out to the canopied veranda. Another open fire with a pale marble surround brings warmth and atmosphere to wintery suppers, where there is space to seat at least twelve around a pendent lit table.Open to the room, the German design Nolte two-tone kitchen is over-sized to suit the space and comes fitted with luxury Siemens integrated appliances. On the large island with plenty a teppanyaki hot plate sits alongside an induction hob and a gas fired wok burner which in turn sit below a remote controlled ceiling mounted extractor fan. The island also provides seating for 4 and plenty of additional cupboard and drawer space. Dual ovens are WiFi enabled with steam and microwave functions, and space has been left for an American fridge freezer which may be negotiable with the sale. To ensure the quartz stone worktops remain clutter free, a Quooker boiling water tap has been fitted and the dishwasher is also integrated. Engineered oak makes way for urban-concrete floor tiles with under floor heating.The Garden & Coach House:While it is believed that the veranda is a later addition, it remains in keeping with the property with decorative floor tiles and ornate ironwork below its canopied roof. It runs the length of the building and is the perfect spot to catch the last of the sun before it dips below the western ridge of Preston Valley. From here you can cast a gaze over your land - which is what you can call a plot of this size; over the extensive lawns, edged with mature borders and beds abundant with fruits. A weeping birch, hibiscus and ginkgo biloba plants add colour and shape, and the original flint walls climbing with clematis add history and character. There is a spacious patio area and the lawns are amply sized for children’s ball games and play equipment which could easily be hidden from view at the rear of the garden if need be. Fruit trees are abundant, festooned with figs, plums and apples while rosemary adds scent, then at the far end of the garden there is access to the old stable and coach house.Peacefully positioned, this building could have a plethora of uses. It is currently used as a store room, but it has been a teenage den in previous years, and with electricity, plus three rooms over two storeys, it could be transformed into a superb holiday let. The possibilities are plentiful, and with side access from the front of the house, it has once been an idea to develop the land further. Planning for a separate dwelling was once given by the local authority, so it may be granted once more – all food for thought!The Lower Ground Floor Apartment:With its own street access, and encompassing the entire ground floor of the house, the lower ground floor has potential to be completely self-contained. However, the renovations have transformed this level into the family’s entertainment space, to include a gym, a cinema room with a projector and built-in sound systems, and a games room with a bar and pool table (all fixtures in these rooms can be negotiated separately with the sale). Having been fully damp proofed, sound proofed, redecorated and renovated to include new windows, each room is versatile depending on need. They could become bedrooms, reception rooms or work spaces, and there is a second fitted kitchen complete with appliances. This floor also has a separate shower room with underfloor heating, and a separate heating system from the rest of the house, making it ideal as a rental to provide an extra income or for an au pair, long-term staying family members, or grown-up children looking for some independence while remaining close to home. The utility room is also on this floor with space for two machines.First Floor Bedroom 2 & Bathroom:Climbing the carpeted stairs, the original mahogany banister curves organically up to the first-floor landing. From here there are two generous double bedrooms including the principal suite. Bedroom two has a working period fireplace and soft grey carpet underfoot and tall sash windows facing east with open views up tree-lined Harrington Road. The ensuite bathroom has a modern take on a period style with wooden wall panels and patterned floor tiles, plus traditional fittings to the bath and separate rainfall shower. The water cylinder is housed in the linen cupboards in here, and there is ample storage in the bedroom for larger pieces of furniture without compromising on space.Master Bedroom Suite:Also on the first floor, the master bedroom suite is peacefully positioned to the rear of the house enjoying verdant garden views. As expected, it is a generous room with grey carpet, shuttered windows and an original built-in wardrobe alongside another open fireplace. Adjoining it is the dressing room fitted with built-in storage and additional space for a dressing table if need be. From here, the elegant ensuite bathroom is again in keeping with the period of the house with a freestanding roll-top bath, heritage colours and patterned tiles on the floor, underfloor heating, and walls around the separate shower cubicle.Second floor Bedrooms:Uniquely, this house has two staircases from the first-floor landing to the second-floor rooms. The first staircase takes you to two large double bedrooms which have been built into the loft space, yet in a house of such scale, the headroom is not compromised in the slightest. Both have a great deal of storage and ensuite shower rooms in keeping with those on the first floor.Study:The second staircase leads to a tranquil home office which is perfectly tucked away in the tower and has a bespoke built in work space and bookshelves. The views are even more inspiring the higher up the house you go, and should you wish to use this room as a bedroom, there is ample space for a double bed in here.Agent’s thoughts:This is a house which needs to be seen to be fully appreciated. The incredible respect the current owners have for the character of the house is breath-taking, and it is clear no corners have been cut in its creation. It is such a pleasure to see a house of such scale brought back to its original splendour. It also benefits from solar panels on both the coach house and on its roof, which brings in approximately £1200 per annum and goes towards the house energy bills.Owner’s secret“We were bowled over by the scale and beauty of this house and feel honoured to have been the ones to breathe new life into it. It is an incredible family home and we have enjoyed every inch of it – entertaining friends and just spending time together, and we cannot fault the location. It is unusual to find a house and garden of this size in such a well-connected area of Brighton.”Where it isShops: Local 1 min walk, North Laine 10 min bus rideStation: Preston Park 3 min walk, Brighton Station 4 min by trainSeafront or Park: Preston Park 4 min walk, seafront 15 min bus rideClosest Schools:Primary: Westdene Primary, Balfour Primary, St Bernadettes rcSecondary: Varndean and Dorothy Stringer, Cardinal Newman rcSixth Form Colleges: Varndean College, bhasvic, Newman CollegePrivate: Brighton College; Lancing Prep.This is a vast and impressive family home in a popular location which is well served for shops, parks and schools.

This unique restoration has attracted the attention of The Sussex Heritage Awards judges and has been filmed for three years by Channel 4 for George Clarke’s Remarkable Renovations series.Sitting on a quiet mews, tucked away behind Regency Square and just moments from the beach and city centre, sits this entirely unique and breathtakingly beautiful four-bedroom house. Originally a 19th Century glassworks, this industrial building has been painstakingly restored by the current owner over several years. Every original feature and material within the house which could be saved has been repaired or repurposed to ensure the building’s character and narrative shine through. These features have then been blended with contemporary fittings, bespoke carpentry & stonemasonry and cutting-edge technologies to create a luxurious home which echoes the industrial purpose of the building yet manages to feel homely. It is the fastidious attention to detail which impresses at every turn. Form and function have been considered in even the tiniest elements and only the finest materials and craftsmanship have been used throughout.Balcony is 5m, full width elevation is 8m facing south with ample glazing and a full width balcony and roof terrace, the house is flooded with natural light. A large skylight beams additional light down through the depth of the house via the 9-meter stairwell and clever LED concealed lighting sets the atmosphere elsewhere.The vaulted ground floor is open plan creating a vast live-work, creative or entertaining space, while the top floor houses the kitchen and living space. Between the two, there are four beautiful bedrooms, all with en suite shower rooms, while the master has a four-person plunge pool and sauna.One of the key features which sets this property apart from other exceptional homes in the area is on-site parking for three cars – a huge bonus when permit waiting lists are long and city centre parking is both expensive and sparse.This property is undoubtedly the finest property on the market at present, with originality, style and character in abundance. The local schools are amongst the best in the city, to include the award-winning Brighton College and Brighton & Hove School for Girls, so for families and professionals alike looking to live in urban luxury by the sea – this property needs to be seen to be fully appreciated.Style: 19th Century converted glassworks mews houseType: 4 double bedrooms, 5 bathrooms (4 en suite, 1 with plunge pool) + WC, 1 vaulted open plan live/work space, 1 open plan kitchen/living/dining roomLocation: Regency Square Conservation AreaOutside: South facing balcony and roof terraceParking: Forecourt for 3 carsTenure: FreeholdWhy You’ll like it:Introduction:You would be forgiven for not knowing Regency Mews exists as it is so peacefully tucked away from the main thoroughfare through the city centre– yet it sits in an incredibly central location within walking distance of Brighton Station, the clean beaches and lawns of Hove Seafront and an array of fashionable restaurants and bars.The mews itself is an artisan area with some residential two and three storey housing interspersed with commercial and light industrial premises. This house is has been both. Formerly the glassworks producing glass windows for the Regency homes within the square and surrounding areas, it only ceased trading in recent years and has sat empty while awaiting its transformation to a superior family home.Property developer James Watts initially bought the house to renovate and live in himself as the space was so unique and the plot came with parking which certainly appealed. It was his desire to live here, as well as his deep respect for the building’s original character and indigenous materials, which ensured no corners were cut in the development.The façade faces south so it is bathed in natural light throughout the day which can be enjoyed from its upper levels from a steel balcony on the first floor and a generous roof terrace along the roofline. The original timber doors running full width along the front have been retained and restored for use inside and replaced with 8-meters of industrial style double doors while the hand knapped flint façade had every stone removed, restored and refitted. Standing outside it has plenty of kerb appeal, yet it seems modest compared to the expansive spaces you find when you step through the door.Vaulted Ground Floor Live/Work/Create/Entertain:Stepping through the door you are greeted by carriage bricks underfoot and the staircase rising up 9-meters through all floors. It is 1.5- meters wide and is formed from a single sheet of blue steel. The engineering is streamlined and precise, despite the irregularity of the bungaroosh walls on either side, from which the staircase appears to float away. Concealed LEDs light the way up, but first to the right is the incredible 12-meter long live/work, creative space spanning the entire ground floor with iron columns and a polished concrete floor.A work area has seen the reuse of many of the original glassworks fittings and materials. A 5 meter workbench spans the west wall and was created from a Victorian glass cutting desk. The original lintels that used to hold up the front elevation have been repurposed into a 5.5m long table. While the aged timber carriage doors have been fully restored and run across the rear of the room to conceal the workings of the house.This is a vast space which invites entertaining, but also a space for work and meetings with its own entrance so clients do not need to enter through the living areas.The flooring is insulated and heated from below, as are all floors in the house, which are heated using the largest cylinder, eco-heating systems available. This allows all showers and heating systems to run at once without losing pressure or heat, while a mvhr air recycling system cleans the air and keeps the rooms temperate. These systems as also cleverly concealed in a plant room with easy access and space for other utilities.The first of six shower rooms with a WC can also be found on this floor, with hand-made Moroccan tiles in shades of turquoise and aquamarine, combined with solid brass fittings and hand-cast concrete basins. With a kitchenette and a bathroom, this floor can also become a self-contained studio/apartment.First floor Bedrooms & Bathrooms:From the half landing on the staircase you enter the bedroom floor where there are four exceptional king size bedrooms, all of which are ensuite. In contrast to the ground floor where the original flint and bungaroosh walls have been retained, this floor uses clean lines to the walls and floors which are finished in smooth concrete plaster. Above your head, however, the ceiling has been created by exposing the original floor joists with their honest and raw aesthetic perfectly juxtaposed with the minimalist finish elsewhere. The lighting and workings of the house have been completely concealed so it is simply the grain of the wood to be marvelled at – indeed the craftsmanship which it took to lower the floor into place, in one single piece, took several months and was a feat of engineering in itself. This was just one of the elements of construction which could have been undertaken in a few days with corners cut, but for such a magnificent project, and out of respect for the original house, James was willing to put in the hours to ensure perfection – and it certainly is just that.Bedroom four sits to the rear of the house with a vaulted skylight adding to the sense of privacy and homeliness inside. Bedrooms two and three sit to the front of the house with a southerly aspect and Jack & Jill access to the black steel balcony which spans the front of the building creating a lovely spot to sit outside during summer with a morning coffee and the papers. These are generous bedrooms with ensuite shower rooms, all of which are decorated with hand-made Moroccan wall tiles, solid brass Italian fixtures and fittings to include rainfall showerheads. 1cm thick glass shower doors, hand-cast concrete hand basins and single sheet slate shower trays look Brutalist yet beautiful against the organic natural tones within the tiles; where industrial-chic meets exoticism in a bold scheme which crosses continents and eras to create ultimately luxurious spaces.Master Bedroom Suite:The largest of four bedrooms, it is predominantly the additional extras within the ensuite bathroom which sets the master bedroom apart from the rest. Not only are there dual concrete hand basins, but alongside the shower room sits a four-person plunge pool lined in smooth concrete. The floors have been strengthened here to accommodate its weight while nearby sits a beautiful hand-built sauna – the epitome of luxury in bathroom designNew windows were created in the easterly elevation to bring in natural light while framing views over the urban local landscape. They conform to conservation area standards with an industrial, multi-pane finish while also honouring the building’s historic heritage.Open Plan Loft-style Living Space:Stepping up to the second-floor loft-style living space, you are greeted by yet more natural materials which have been removed and restored, then reinstated or repurposed. Every ceiling beam has been battened and fitted to achieve a contemporary linear appeal while bungaroosh walls have been sealed and repaired by hand. Running along the rear of the room, the Italian kitchen is a meter deep offering a huge amount of storage. The cabinet fronts are created from selected and reclaimed Douglas Fir and Pitch Pine timbers from the original building and every high-end appliance has been integrated to include an 8-ring burner hob. Several other cupboards have been created with touch close concealed doors to house household items, so the streamlined finish is clutter free.While this room is entirely open plan, it is not cavernous or overwhelming – there is warmth and homeliness with personal and discreet spaces to balance home comforts with a luxury lifestyle.Roof Terrace:The entire 6-meter front with front elevation of 8 meters from the loft room opens to the expansive roof terrace which has Crittall windows and doors to flood the interior with natural light. This window style was chosen to echo the industrial elements of the building, both inside and out, while allowing an almost seamless view to the outside. From within the room you can see the roofline opposite below open skies with the city’s newest landmark the i360 rising up into view, reminding you just how close to the coast you are here. Perfect for quiet reflection, yoga or entertaining, this is a lovely space which becomes an extension of the home during the warmer seasons with space for dining and drinks alfresco.Agent’s thoughts:Breathtakingly beautiful and brilliantly executed, this is a completely unique build and one-of-a-kind in the city. Not only is it aesthetically exceptional, it is also brilliantly located for the city lifestyle with the added bonus of parking for several cars.Owner’s secret:“I love a design challenge, and this was just that. It has been a constant labour of love for over three-years now as I wanted every element to be perfect.”As a designer and property developer it was important that I knew the source of the materials, and that the inherent character and fabric of the house was not lost. That said, I also wanted to create a homely and beautiful space which I feel I have achieved. For families with children, this area is fantastic, and there is a real sense of community and a vibrant energy to both Regency Square and neighbouring Brunswick. The local schools are excellent, and you have the beach and several parks nearby – plus that all important parking which was a non-negotiable for me. I am incredibly proud of what the team and I have created here; somewhere I always intended to call home, but I have decided to have my main residence abroad. It will be a wrench to let go.The restoration has attracted the attention of The Sussex Heritage Awards judges and has been filmed for three years by Channel 4 for George Clarke’s Remarkable Renovations series.
