There are always local activities on offer – and friends love to come and stay and always say they feel like they’ve been on holiday!

Planning consent = unique opportunity! Soaring above Brighton Marina in a spectacular coastal setting, this fabulous four bedroom house with a south facing garden and sea facing terraces on three existing levels offers an interesting choice -you can either just add the finishing touches to a glamorous refurbishment in your own style, or increase the already substantial footprint of 326m2 (3510ft2) to an astounding 526m2 (5662ft2) to create a six bedroom dream home over four storeys with a gym and home office on the lower floor, and a private principal suite with stunning views at the top. In a prime Roedean location with off street parking and small integral garage, two spacious storeys have already been transformed into a dynamic, contemporary home which embraces the glory of the sea: Walls of glass at the back open to a sunroom, the garden and the English Channel from the open plan ground floor, whilst upstairs there is a spa-like bathroom and both the guest room and principal bedroom enjoy a covered balcony and sunny terrace with a panoramic seascape. Close to a golf course, the South Downs and just minutes from the beach and waterfront restaurants of the UK’s largest Marina, this prestigious location attracts professionals and families seeking fresh air and a healthy lifestyle with swift access to Brighton city centre (5-10 minutes), Amex Stadium (10), Gatwick (45) or London, as well as privacy and good schools for their children with some of the best in the country, including Roedean, Brighton College and Brighton Waldorf within a 4/5 minute radius.EPC: DCouncil Tax: GThis very private home is secreted away in an exclusive road with a coastal walk at the end of it and a thriving High Street nearby. Set back behind a paved front garden for off street parking, there is also an integral garage suitable for a small car or large motorbikes. Rendered with flush aluminium energy efficient windows in place, you can tell from the outset that most of the difficult work has been done for you – and you can do the fun bit by choosing the colour and perhaps adding the impressive two storey porch as shown on the plans briefly summarised at the end of the brochure, approved reference on the planning website BN2022/01115 .Inside, the broad hallway has character, blending old and new with the original sweeping staircase, exposed brick and sculpted radiators, and there are Crittall style doors to the boot room and to the kitchen area, which acknowledge the Arts & Crafts heritage of the building – but open at a touch. Subtle but inspired design features include replacing light switches in the living room ahead by dimmer switches, and moving them slightly so you could install double doors to it from the hall to bring the garden and sea into the heart of this home.The open plan living room:Designed to entertain in fabulous trans-Atlantic style, sunshine and sea views stream through this elegant family/kitchen/diner which has been opened up to bring the outside in. Running across the whole of the back of the home, windows frame the sea glittering at the end of the garden whilst twin sets of doors slide across to a sociable sunroom with a stunning seascape and direct access to the Italianate landscaping of the sunny garden. A magnificent 26’5’’ x 19’11’’ from side to side (not including the kitchen) there is ample space in which to work, rest or play, and guests can enjoy dining whilst taking in the beautiful coastal backdrop or can relax in front of an open fire in complete, and rare, seclusion.Tucked away at the front of the house, you won’t want to change a thing in the stylish kitchen area where an expert eye has ensured that the discreetly expensive kitchen is safely away from the in/out flow behind a large central island which invites company and thoughtfully has a wine cooler. Well planned, the Kenwood touch induction range beneath the Klarstein hood could stay, as could the Kenwood fridge freezer, and a dishwasher is also integrated for you. Clever storage solutions include a pull out larder, and a discrete utility room has extra storage and plumbing for two machines.The garden and lower floor:The paved terrace by the house has an elderly spiral staircase as a sculptural connection to the sun terrace above, which the current owner thinks should be replaced if you are not going to extend at this stage, as well as broad steps down to a spacious dining terrace with a continental flavour and glorious views over the Dover Strait. Central stairs lead down to a child and pet friendly lawn which is large and level enough for games with a direct, secure gate to the walks of Roedean Paddock behind. To the west side of the sunroom, a sunny seating area has steps down to what was once a pool house, but the pool itself has now been filled in. With its own entrance and access to a side gate, this room could perform many different functions from gym to playroom or even a private home office – although there is planning for an internal staircase and two connecting rooms each with glass doors to the garden terrace.Four first floor double bedrooms and luxury bathroom:Off a bright central landing with a new hatch to the huge attic, all of the bedrooms are generous in size and light and airy. Two big, bright bedrooms are at the front, one of which feels very private at the end of the landing, and the other is dual aspect and used as a dressing room. Central to this floor, the spa-like bathroom has high end fittings including twin hand basins on sleek storage and a designer finish. You can bathe in glory in a black coated freestanding bath which also has a shower, or be refreshed and revived beneath a large walk in shower with a dual head system. At the back, the current guest room – bedroom number three- is on the southwest corner with a door to a room with natural light which we are told has plumbing for an en suite, and also has French doors to the covered balcony which leads out to the roof terrace.The principal bedroom is a serene sanctuary spreading its wings across the southeast corner with stunning views over gardens to open water framed by a wall of glass. All that you could dream of with a door to the covered veranda where you can follow the sun from its rise to its setting at any time of year, you can also breakfast on a sun terrace with a vista which sweeps along the coast, over yachts in the safe harbour of Brighton Marina and on past the iconic Art Deco architecture of the distant Marine Gate to the bay of Worthing.Plans BH2022/01115 in brief: Detailed drawings on planning website/on request:Lower floor: Creation of an internal staircase, 2 connecting rooms each with glass doors to garden terrace.Ground floor: Addition of two storey gabled porch forming atrium. Increase of the size of the living/dining area, opening to a balcony and side terrace with steps to the garden and path to secure gate. Addition of a cloakroom behind the utility area.First floor: Landing opened to new two storey porch. Creation of a staircase to the top floor. The two front bedrooms and bathroom remain the same, the back of the building to be extended so the current principal becomes a third bedroom. Extension to create a new 4th bedroom with access to a veranda and a 5th guest room, also opening to the veranda, would have a dressing room and en suite shower room.Second floor: Forms the principal suite with Velux to the east and glass doors to a private south balcony. Dressing room, bathroom with a bath and a shower both rooms with rooflights.Agent says:“This exclusive coastal home with uninterrupted sea views from the main rooms is in a prestigious location with rare consent to grow – although there is already 326m2 (3510ft2) of sun and sea filled loveliness to enjoy!”Owner’s secret:“Warm in winter but cool and airy during summer, this house has suited our sociable lifestyle as well as our busy work/family schedules as it has private parking, easy access to schools, parks and the al fresco lifestyle and arts venues that Brighton has to offer as well as almost 24hr transport links to the stations and airports, but you return to peace and quiet.”Where it is:Shops: Local 3 minutes, city centre about 10Station: Brighton about 15 minutesSeafront or Park: Seafront is 5 minutes as are the golf course and parkClosest schools:Primary: St Marks, Our Lady of LourdesSecondary: Varndean, Brighton MetSixth Form: Varndean, bhasvic, Brighton MetPrivate: Roedean, Brighton College, Brighton Waldorf, Brighton & Hove HighOne of Brighton’s finest addresses close to the beach and the cosmopolitan Marina with its health club, cinemas, casino and waterfront restaurants, the al fresco lifestyle of our city’s picturesque cultural heart of the city’s is about 5-10 minutes by taxi. Award winning schools, including Roedean, Brighton Waldorf and Brighton College are just minutes away, as is the coastal village of Rottingdean with its popular primary schools and vibrant High Street. A park, a golf course and access to the Downs are nearby and as Brighton Station serving Gatwick and London is easy to reach by cab or bus, this fabulous home would suit commuters, couples and families of any age.

This exceptionally bright six-bedroom modern house in Brighton was designed by the leading architectural practice, Denizen Works, in 2020. The building was designed to optimise the far-reaching and ever-changing sea views, with expansive glazing ensuring the house is in constant communication with the landscaped gardens and the English Channel. A series of incredibly bright, open-plan living spaces of over 4,070 sqft extend across three storeys, characterised by clean, linear forms and a pared-back material palette. Roedean Road is set in a coveted location overlooking Brighton Marina, ideal for easy access to the South Downs, the coast and Kemptown.The ArchitectDenizen Works was founded by Murray Kerr in 2011. It was conceived as a collaborative studio to develop projects of different scales and types based on an understanding of place. Since its inception, the studio has designed a wide range of projects, from a mobile sauna in Finland to concept designs for a mountaineer’s tea house in the shadows of Everest.The studio won the Stephen Lawrence Prize in 2014 for House No.7 on the Isle of Tiree and has since been published worldwide; it is now part of the Scottish Government’s Exemplar Design Scheme. Denizen Works was also included in the Architecture Foundation’s ‘New Architects 3’ book, recognising the best 100 practices established within the last decade, and, more recently, in the C20 Society’s latest publication, ‘100 Years, 100 Houses’ which showcases the best 100 houses in Britain from 1916 to the present day.The TourShou Sugi Ban Japanese timber and terracotta tiles form a striking façade, and the primary entrance is via a solid-timber pivot door at ground level. This leads to a beautifully light double-height entrance hall that creates a welcoming introduction. Storage has been built into clean lines of bespoke joinery, and terrazzo tiles line the floor.Impressive sea views from the primary living space create immediate impact; this is a wonderfully bright, versatile space where daily life meets good design. Facing south, the expansive glazing invites an excellent quality of natural light and warmth throughout the day. Vitsoe shelving runs the length of the wall (available by separate negotiation), and the sliding glass doors opens this entire room onto the terrace and garden in warmer months.A central island delineates the kitchen, which has been beautifully designed with the practicalities of daily life in mind. Set to one side, custom-built joinery of blackened oak has been crafted by local carpenters to provide floor-to-ceiling storage areas, neatly housing the appliances. A utility space is interconnected, next to a ground-floor cloak and shower room, finished in bespoke tiling and Vola and Cielo sanitaryware.On the westerly side of the ground floor lies a more intimate room, which would make an ideal study or quiet space for music or homeworking. Natural light filters through an internal window and allows a view to the sea from here also.Ascending the bespoke timber staircase, the first floor is given over to five generously proportioned bedrooms, three facing south and opening onto the wide balcony, which runs the length of the rear façade. Each bedroom has been carefully finished with a sense of craft and finesse, with plenty of storage. Oak flooring runs throughout, creating a pleasing aesthetic continuity. Three bathrooms on this level serve the bedrooms.The main bedroom suite spans the entire second-storey. Realised in a palette of soothing colours, it is a softly lit, peaceful space to retreat to. Facing south, the upper balcony optimises the impressive sea views which reach as far as the Isle of Wight on a clear day. An interconnected dressing room is fitted with floor-to-ceiling handmade cabinetry, and the en suite bathroom, finished in marble and Vola fittings, features both a walk-in shower and a slipper bath overlooking the sea.Full-height storage rooms purposefully utilise the voids in the eaves.A gated driveway means there is a generous amount of private off-street parking alongside the large double garage. An air-source heat pump ensures efficiency, alongside zoned underfloor heating, powered by renewable energy.Outdoor SpaceA large south-facing terrazzo terrace forms a seamless transition between the interior and exterior spaces; an inviting pavilion for both summer lunches and for watching the sailing and fishing boats coming in and out of the harbour over an early evening sundowner.Herbaceous beds border wide expanses of lawn to provide changing pops of colour and interest throughout the seasons, while specimen trees and mature shrubs add structure, shade and privacy.The AreaWith the sea in front and the countryside behind, Roedean Road is ideally placed for easy access to the beach and the marina, reachable on foot within a few minutes. East Brighton golf course is directly behind the house, as are the South Downs for mountain biking and walking.Roedean is close to Kemptown, known for its cafes and delis, bars and pubs, and independent shops, including an old-style hardware store, Brampton’s butchers and an array of vintage and antique stores.

Architect designed and interior styled, this unique six-bedroom property sits in the prestigious location of Roedean, perfectly placed between the coast, the countryside and the city of Brighton & Hove. Inspired by Modernism, this substantial house features clean lines and open plan living spaces with generous windows to frame the uninterrupted sea views and skyscapes to the south from its hillside position. Designed by the owners, no corners were cut in its creation, using only the finest bespoke craftsmanship, materials and fittings to create a space where both form and function have been considered at every turn. Even below the stunning aesthetic, modern technologies include zoned underfloor heating on all floors (using renewable energy) and an air source heat pump ensure this house is ecologically sound and economic to run. Ideal for entertaining, the exceptional reception room opens seamlessly to the Terrazzo sun terrace and landscaped garden which steps down to a lush green lawn bordered by well-established plants and trees. From here there is access to a double garage, and there is additional parking to the front for up to three cars behind secure remotely controlled gates.Characterised by individual, substantial homes sitting elevated on the hill looking out to sea, the coast road between Kemptown and Ovingdean has an air of exclusivity. This uniquely beautiful home holds prime position on the road with uninterrupted views over Brighton Marina. It feels private and secure on approach with remote controlled gates revealing a generous parking forecourt with space for three cars, although there is additional access to rear from the double garages on The Cliff. Immediately impressive, the façade is part clad in blackened Shou Sugi Ban Japanese timber alongside terracotta hung tiles running full height around extruded aluminium window frames. An over-sized, bespoke pivot door with Ring doorbell provides access to the entrance hall where the true scale and beauty of the house becomes apparent.Entrance hallStepping in through the front door, your line of sight takes you through the grand depth of the house to the wall of glazing running framing views over the glorious garden to the sea. Large-scale Terrazzo floor tiles run seamlessly throughout the hallway and down the fanned stairs to the main reception room and natural light streams in through the triple height open stairwell atrium. The owners’ deep appreciation of the Mid-Century Modern aesthetic is apparent in the bespoke oak staircase with its slat wall and clean lines which rise through the house on all three floors. What the entrance hall also includes is a variety of storage placements, this includes a large cloaks cupboard and an under-stair storage space for all your non-essential needs.Ground floor, shower room and study/TV roomSitting either side of the entrance hall to the front of the house are the ground floor shower room and home office. Bespoke cabinetry runs along one wall offering ample full-height storage while a desk with space for two runs perpendicularly below the large internal window looking out over the living space as well as looking out to sea. This in turn brings in views to the south and plenty of natural light.Dark wall and floor tiles create a real style statement in the shower room with a glazed shower enclosure, a rainfall shower head, and Corian topped bespoke blackened oak vanity unit and Cielo handbasin with a sleek Vola tap to finish.Open plan living room, dining room & kitchenSpanning the rear of the house and forming half its footprint, this exceptional space is breath-takingly beautiful and hugely impressive. German designed; aluminium framed sliding doors open completely to the garden terrace which becomes an effortless extension of the home during the summer. Light flooring and walls are contrasted by the dark kitchen which was designed by the owners and hand-built by local carpentry company Square One. Blackened Oak bespoke kitchen units provide a wealth of storage solutions to include a larder and concealed workspace for making tea and coffee, plus deep drawers and cupboards which run from floor to ceiling. Dark ceramic worktops run along the kitchen side and across the large kitchen island forming a superbly hardwearing surface which cannot be stained or burned. Within the cabinetry, dual ovens (one steam oven), a dishwasher and an induction hob are integrated, while space has been left for two washing machines and an American fridge freezer in the adjoining utility room. This room has access to the parking forecourt so you can bring shopping in directly to the fridge rather than traipsing through the main house.Elsewhere there are clearly defined areas for formal dining and relaxed seating. This is a room which invites entertaining while managing to feel homely with space for sumptuous furnishings. Vitsoe modular units run along the rear wall to house books, ornaments and entertainment systems and may be available with the house by separate negotiation. While this room is south facing with glazing almost covering the southerly elevation, it stays cool during summer as the first-floor balcony provides some shade, as do electric blinds.The gardenDesigned by a renowned architect, the garden uses strategic planting to ensure it is completely private from neighbouring homes while allowing uninterrupted views of Brighton Marina and the sea. The terrace spans the width of the house with space for dining alfresco in style while steps lead down to the lawn. Bordered by generous flower beds of agapanthus, lavender and neat topiary, the lawn is lush and green with space for relaxation or for children to play in complete safety. Well-established trees and shrubs provide some welcome dappled shade during high season where outdoor lighting allows you to sit out well into the evening watching the boats coming in and out of the marina.First floor bedrooms and bathroomsFrom the first-floor landing there are three double bedrooms facing south, all with sliding door access to the deep, full width balcony with glass balustrade to ensure uninterrupted views along the coast. Fine quality engineered oak boards run throughout the first-floor bedrooms paired with white walls for a clean and classic aesthetic. Each room has been individualised using furnishing and textiles, yet they offer a blank canvas to the new owner. Two of the south-facing bedrooms have chic and stylish en suite shower rooms designed using high-end sanitaryware and tiles, while the family bathroom has a deep and comfortable bath with a rainfall shower above it and is on trend using a monochrome scheme.Bedrooms four and five are multi-functional rooms sitting to the front of the first floor. One has been soundproofed for use as a music room and second reception room, while the other has space for gym equipment or as a second home office.Principal bedroom suiteForming the entire second floor, the principal suite has three distinct areas with the bedroom holding prime position, so you wake up to direct sea views below open skies. The doors slide open to the upper balcony where the views only improve, taking your line of sight along the coast to Worthing in the west; where on a clear day you can see the Isle of Wight. A bespoke solid oak bookshelf bedhead creates a screen from the door to form an open corridor between the sleeping area, the dressing room and the exceptional en suite bathroom.Lined in marble, the en suite is both timeless and modern, with a C P Hart Elter freestanding bath sitting on a platform, perfectly positioned to enjoy the view through the oversize remote controlled rooflight. A walk-in wet room shower is luxuriously spacious, and all fixtures and fittings are by Vola.Mirroring the bathroom in size and shape, the dressing room is lined with bespoke wardrobes, hand sprayed in Farrow & Ball’s Calamine, providing ample clothes storage for two. It is a generous space which would also work as a nursery for very young children needing to be close to their parents at night, or as a secondary workspace if needed.In addition, there are two capacious walk-in storage rooms on this floor, one of which houses the eco water cylinder.Agent’s thoughtsEntirely unique and beautifully presented throughout, it is clear this home has been designed by those with a refined eye for colour and interior design. It balances home comforts and luxury living perfectly and is ideally positioned within the city to enjoy everything it has to offer. This is a stand-alone house which needs to be seen to fully appreciate its exceptional quality.Owner’s secret“We built this house just over two years ago and have found it to be a comfortable, peaceful and easy house to live in. We love to entertain so the space is ideal – particularly during the warmer seasons when the garden comes into its own. We have also enjoyed the close proximity to the South Downs for dog walking and the views of the sea and marina are a joy to wake up to each day. We are looking for our next project now, but we will miss it here as the location is hard to beat and the house is so unique.”LocationShops: Local 5 min walk, city centre 10-minute driveTrain Station: Brighton Station 15-minute driveSeafront or Park: The South Downs and Beach: 2-minute walk eachClosest Schools:Primary: St Margarets’s CofE, Our Lady of Lourdes rcSecondary: Longhill High, Cardinal Newman rcPrivate: Roedean School for Girls, Brighton College & Prep, Montessori SchoolThis stunning property is just a stroll from the fashionable Kemp Town Village which hosts the hospital and highly-acclaimed schools including the award-winning Brighton College.

A perfect fusion of nautical Art Deco style and spectacular, uninterrupted sea views from an exclusive cliff top in Roedean, this luxury six bedroom home has sun soaked terraces facing the English Channel on every floor and the beautifully landscaped garden with a heated pool and hot tub faces south. Inside, all four storeys have a designer finish and on the ground floor, the spacious living room with a library area sweeps into a fabulous kitchen diner where the discreetly expensive Poggenpohl units house top of the range Gaggenau appliances. The lower floor is designed for parties complete with a Michael Mancini wine tasting room, media room and gym, and the pool changing room also has a steam room. All of the quiet, first floor double bedrooms are en suite with either a dressing room or bespoke wardrobes and at the top of the house, a fantasy principle suite with twin dressing rooms and offices is filled with the ocean. There is a double garage for you and yours with direct access to the house, luggage drop and utility room whilst at the front there is gated off street parking for your guests. Opposite a golf course, close to East Brighton Park which leads to the South Downs National Park and looking over the UK’s largest Marina, this prime location attracts professionals and families seeking fresh air and a healthy lifestyle with swift access to the city centre (5 minutes), Amex Stadium (10), Gatwick or London, as well as privacy and good schools for their children with some of the best in the country, including Roedean, Brighton College and Brighton Waldorf within a 3 minute radius.Synonymous with luxury and glamour, Art Deco is known for its sophisticated design using expensive materials and exquisite craftmanship to create luxury homes where deceptively simple elegance masked a commitment to practical function. With gentle curves and strong lines accentuated by banks of energy efficient crittal style aluminium windows this beautiful house is a stunning reimagining of the classic ‘style moderne’ with glass walls to bring the light and sea views into the heart of the home, an exacting finish with the best of 21st century fittings including a Poggenphol kitchen with top of the range Gaggenhau fittings, a wine tasting room and a library created by one of our top craftsmen Michael Mancini, and C.P Hart bathrooms as well as underfloor heating throughout.The entrance:Guests sweep through the electronic gate to a hard standing with a discreet bin store and bike shed where a formal garden, white render, crittal style windows and iconic curves of a protective porch invite you to a magnificent double, walnut door. Inside, a vaulted atrium is designed to embrace the Sussex sunshine and magnificent views of the sea – which pour in through double smoked glass doors ahead. Above your head a magnificent custom made chandelier of 900 Swarovski crystals cascades through the centre of a walnut and glass staircase, (which could be available, subject to negotiation) Italian marble tiles are underfoot, and designed as an inclusive home, a lift serving all four storeys is to the left and a guest cloakroom with Deco curves is tucked away.Out of sight and introducing the high spec technology enhancing the property, the electronic ‘engine room’ of this 2013 home introduces you to the surround sound system, underfloor heat, wifi and sky boxes to the media room and bedrooms as well as the Teletask light switches, smoke detectors and security systems installed as a precaution.The living room and library:Designed to share with friends and family, the sculptural living space embraces the sunshine, opening to the sun terrace and garden and flowing around the warmth of a central gas fireplace to a library with shelving by Mancini. Walnut flooring ensures a seamless in/out flow and simple but stylish decoration keeps the focus on the spectacular views which sweep over the protective arm of the Marina to open water.The kitchen diner:The fabulous Poggenphol kitchen is perfect for entertaining with a south wall which folds completely away to bring in the green of the garden and glittering sea whilst French glazed doors at the far end of the room open to a walled kitchen garden, scented by herbs and roses, and large enough for a table and chairs. A sliding glass door connects this room to the living room and with top of the range Gaggenhau fittings, this is a kitchen of dreams. Separated from the dining area by a Corian breakfast bar which seats 6 with ease, a sociable central island has power for gadgets, double sink, quooker tap and dishwasher. On one side, convenient for the dining area, there is a drinks fridge, tall fridge and ice dispensing freezer and to the other, a steam and fan oven have a warming tray and an electric hob, gas hob, hot plate and electric griddle are beneath twin hoods.The wine tasting room, bar and media area, gym, changing room and steam room:The party can continue downstairs where a wine tasting room created by Mancini is encased in glass to maintain the ambient temperature. A bar is by broad doors to the lit steps to the pool room, pool and outside shower, and a spacious media area is ideal for movies, cup nights or gaming with a contemporary gas fire in the statement, marble lined wall.A mirrored gym has ample floorspace for equipment and off it, a changing room has a large walk in shower and a steam room which can accommodate 12 people.The south garden:A peaceful paradise with stunning coastal views sweeping from east to west and just 5 minutes from the city centre, a sun deck runs along the whole of the back of the house. To one side it dips down to the hot tub and sunbathing area and to the other it broadens for dining by the heated pool (which has an automated cover for winter), and then steps down to a formal garden. On the other side of the pool there is a lawned area for play and seating area with a mosaic compass underfoot where you can enjoy guests having a good time.The practical bits:The lower floor also has a discreet laundry room and several storage rooms including a baggage drop at the top of the stairs to the automated double garage, and there is also a guest cloakroom and second walk in larder with power for a fridge off the lobby at the foot of the stairs to the ground floor.Five 1st floor double bedrooms, all en suite:Reached either via the walnut and glass staircase or by lift, all five beautiful bedrooms are generous doubles and each are en suite, designed by the prestigious C.P. Hart, with either bespoke fitted wardrobes or walk in closets. Four have direct sea views and access to a wide veranda with a glass balustrade so the ever changing vista can be enjoyed even from bed, one of which is a fabulous, dual aspect VIP guest suite on the southwest corner with a dressing room and en suite large enough for both an elliptical freestanding bath and walk in shower.The principle suite -2nd floor:Deco style at its most glamorous, this magnificent principle suite shimmers in golden wallpaper and spans the entirety of the top floor. Spacious, restful and ready to move into, inspired design focuses on the fabulous coastal location. With sleek lines and touches of luxury, this serene sanctuary is intentionally reminiscent of the 1st class salons of an ocean liner opening to its own private balcony with views over yachts at safe harbour to the open water of the Dover Straight for sunrise in the east to sunsets in the west – as well as our famous starry skies. Twin offices each enjoy the seascape and provide comfortable secluded places in which to work from home, two dressing rooms are larger than you expect and spa like, the glamorous en suite with high end C.P.Hart fittings has both a striking freestanding baignoir and separate shower with a large drench head in wet room style.Agent says:“A glamorous reimagining of the Art Deco style delivers a unique coastal home beautifully designed to make the most of the stunning setting and although it is like stepping into a painting and every room has a designer finish, it is also a family friendly, comfortable home with a discreet practical ethos.”Owner’s secret:“In a stunning setting, the views are different every day and are equally beautiful whether blue skies or stormy. We designed the house to enjoy with our friends and family and one of the benefits of having 9,700 square feet is that we can entertain a large number of people without the neighbours hearing a thing – and if the children are partying late in the basement, at the top we are private and quiet. The location is great for getting into or out of the city and friends can travel easily to us either by car or train. With level access and a lift to each floor the house is welcoming to those of any age or agility and as we have a busy lifestyle, the house is a secure lock up and leave.”Surrounded by the National Park and bordered by the English Channel Brighton & Hove offers…fresh air1,627km2 of country walks, bridle paths and star filled nights of the South Downs National Parkwater sportslargest marina in UK, yacht clubs, blue flag beaches, lagoon to learn surf/sail/waterski/kayakgolfing72 par private golf club, 6,333 yards all on chalk for all year testing play, access oppositefabulous horse racinginternational racecourse with grandstand and private boxes for hirecounty cricketfor the ultimate sound of summerpremier footballexperience the roar of the crowds at the Amex Stadium with a 30,750 seating capacityfestivalsfabuloso Pride, Brighton arts & fringe, the Foodie Festival – and morevibrant lifestyletheatres, arts venues, museums…unique restaurants & shopping of picturesque Regency heartWhat’s around you:Shops: Local High Street 1 minute, Marina 3 minutes, the Lanes about 5 minutes by cabStation: Brighton mainline 15-20 by busSeafront or Park: Seafront 5 minutes, golf course opposite, park 1closest schools:Primary: St Mark’sSecondary: Varndean or Dorothy StringerPrivate: Roedean, Brighton College, Brighton Waldorf, Brighton & Hove HighOne of Brighton’s finest addresses close to the beach and the cosmopolitan Marina with its health club, cinemas, casino and waterfront restaurants, the al fresco lifestyle of Kemptown Village and St James’s Street can be reached on foot and the cultural heart of the city’s about 5 minutes by taxi.
