Soaring above the English Channel, this beautiful two bedroom split level apartment in Grade I listed Arundel Terrace has stunning sea views at the front and glorious open views from the sunny, 5m x 3.5m (16’5 x 11’6) roof terrace at the back. With use of 7.5 acres of garden enclosures for the residents of Kemp’s Regency vision of Belgravia by the Sea and their secret tunnel to the beach, new life breathes through this unusually spacious home which now offers a glamorous, contemporary lifestyle. The lounge, dining room and stylish fitted kitchen are discreetly connected to fully enjoy the exclusive waterfront vista, whilst the two double bedrooms are private as well as peaceful at the back of the building, with an ensuite bathroom for the principal and a second bathroom for guests. One of the finest addresses in the city looking over the fashionable Marina and Black Rock beach which is being restored to its former glory, now is the time to buy this ideal home or investment opportunity. There is a friendly local high street, the al fresco lifestyle of Kemptown is on the doorstep – so both the hospital and Brighton College are about an 8-10 minute walk- and the picturesque cultural heart of the city is a scenic 25 minute seafront stroll or a 7-10 minute cab ride.

Grade I listed Arundel Terrace is acknowledged as one of the finest Regency developments within the UK- and is one of only two in our coastal city which have private gardens for the residents. A prime address and adorned by giant Corinthian columns, this statement end of terrace mansion was the prestigious Bush Hotel from 1826 – 1850 and although just minutes from the historic cultural heart of the city, embracing the glory of the sea, it feels a world away…

The entrance:
Opposite the beach, a grand, secure entrance has Doric columns and inside, an impressive communal entrance is cared for and well organised. Ahead, stately doors open to an unexpected gem; an uplifting inner sanctum, lined with Ionic columns where both an arched doorway to the hotel foyer, (no longer used) and large window bring in the English Channel– and a lift is discreetly hidden away to your left ready to sweep you to the second floor and this apartment, which is tucked away behind it, so no other residents pass your door and where there is an amazing total of 112.3m2 (1209 sq.ft.) approx. To enjoy inside.

The lounge, dining room, kitchen:
A perfect fusion of spectacular sea views which change every day and classic interior design which will stand the test of time, spreading its wings over two spacious levels, this luxury duplex has delivered both an elegant flow between the exclusive, south facing entertaining rooms and a sensitive layout where the bedrooms, one of which doubles as a home office and opens to the terrace, are privately tucked away at the rear.
A central hallway is inviting, leading away in two directions which gives an immediate impression of space and at the top of broad stairs to your left, with 4.01m x 3.26m (13’2 x 10’8) of floorspace for sophisticated dining, guests can relax in rare seclusion in a comfortable room looking through to the lounge with its magnificent view over the sea.

Spanning the whole of the front of this statement, end of terrace building, the triple windows of the lounge reach the ceiling which is high, and frame stunning views which sweep from the protective arm of the Marina across open water to the west, where friends and family can bathe in the Sussex sunshine during summer or experience dramatic electric storms over open water in comfort during winter. Tucked away, the stylish fitted kitchen is off centre stage but sociable, perfect for parties with a choice of lighting levels, sophisticated storage solutions and practical working surfaces. High end appliances include a Stoves gas hob and hood, Neff grill/combi and fan oven, fridge freezer and a dishwasher, and plumbing is in place for both a washing machine and drier – which the vendors are willing to discuss.

The guest room and bathroom:
The glorious proportions of this stately building designed by the legendary Regency partnership of Busby and Wilds remain unspoilt in the bedroom area of the apartment on the second level, where a spacious bathroom is convenient off the central hallway. Designed with luxury in mind, the glamorous guest room is not directly overlooked with relaxing open views, floor to ceiling fitted wardrobes and a door to the sunny roof terrace to add a little Regency romance. Light and airy, with 5.26m x 3.50m (17’3 x 11’6) it is unusually large, and could easily double as a quiet home office.

The principal suite:
All about relaxing in timeless elegance, the peaceful principal bedroom has space, grace and views over a sea of gardens which roll to Downland. A wall of chic closets provide all the storage you could dream of, and large enough for a bath with a shower attachment, the ensuite is a serene sanctuary where discreetly indulgent features include a lit mirror, shaving point and warming rail for towels over the radiator.

The roof terrace:
5m x 3.5m (16’5 x 11’6) of sun soaked loveliness embraces open, panoramic views which sweep across gardens and our glittering city to the rolling countryside of our verdant National Park – which can be reached via a 72 par golf course or the lush acres of East Brighton Park – both within a 10 minute stroll.

With plenty of space in which to celebrate life, friends and family and lit for summer evenings, decking is underfoot for dining tables and this glamorous space, completely open to the west is a real sun trap – and don’t forget you’ll have access to the listed garden enclosures too!

Agent says:
“This is one of the largest two bedroom apartments we have seen in one of the most sought after buildings within this Grade I listed terrace. Inside, this spacious apartment is a stunning reimagining of the Regency dream which delivers a fabulous coastal home for entertaining with a rare, sunny roof terrace and private double bedrooms.”

Owner’s secret:
“Grade I listed, the terrace is beautiful, and we have enjoyed the balance between being sociable in the glorious, gated gardens but also being able to entertain privately on the roof terrace. It has been an absolute pleasure to live here and we love having views of both the sea and the countryside – daily reminders for us to go out and enjoy them both. We have had great fun spending time in this vibrant seaside city where there is so much to do, whatever you’re into, and local amenities include a High Street and our favourite café and restaurant Marmalade and bistro bar Busby & Wilds around the corner.”

For exclusive use by residents they are not only secure, but also a social focal point of a vibrant, inclusive community. Close to the beach, schools, park and golf course, there are plenty of local shops, bars and cafés serving your every need including Marmalade Café & Deli, Busby & Wilds Restaurant and Daddy Long Legs Bistro Bar. Kemptown Village also has plenty of amenities including a farmers market, and the waterfront restaurants and cinemas of the Marina are also just a short walk if you don’t want to drive. The famous cultural heart of the city is about 5 minutes by cab, there is a regular bus service close by that runs past the hospital and Brighton College to the station and for commuting by car, access to the A23/A27 is swift and zone H has no waiting list for permits.
