Rock Street, Brighton
Close to beaches and Kemptown’s café bars, restaurants and shops, this unique, Grade II listed four storey house on a quiet road boasts a roof terrace, a jewel in the crown with panoramic views and a beautiful glimpse of sea. Inside it is lovingly restored and decorated and spans a magnificent 55.51m2 (597.50 sq. Ft.). The ground floor living/ dining room, with a wood burning stove from Sussex Eco Solutions, opens out on to a sunny steel-built balcony, allowing light to pour down into a small courtyard below. The kitchen has ample storage, including a free-standing larder and work surfaces both wood and stainless steel. On the first floor, a generous-sized principle bedroom would make a great home office or be ideal for guests, with luxury bathroom adjacent. With just 2 mins walk to the vibrant seafront, while Waitrose and al fresco amenities of Western Road, Hove Lawns and the i360 a short bus ride away, as is Brighton Station with frequent direct trains to Gatwick and London (just 7 mins by cab or 20 on foot) it’s a great buy or investment.
One of the most sought after locations in the city surrounded by chic cafés, restaurants, a historic heart and inclusive community, this house within a stroll of major city attractions is tucked away from tourists, but it is also close to the sociable events during festival seasons. Highly rated local schools are all within easy reach and both the coast road and Edward Street/Eastern Road have bus routes and swift links to take you into or out of the city.
Enjoy a social, coastal lifestyle in this private house in a sought after street just a few minutes from the marina and seafront where nearby beaches have coffee houses, bars, yoga studios and a new Lido. Private and secure it is also surprisingly quiet for its fashionable location with shops and restaurants a few steps away.
Inside the house has been re-modelled to a very high standard and the ground floor delivers a spacious living, dining room and kitchen which brims with light and character. Spanning the building from front to back, original shop windows at the front are frosted for privacy whilst French doors at the far end open to a sunny balcony with space for a table and chairs, and steps down to the courtyard below. Lined with shelving, this comfortable, versatile space has plenty of room for sofas and family table by a wood burning stove. Tucked away from the social flow, the kitchen area has a central island with a gas hob and ovens built in. Custom made cabinets offer ample storage and practical working surfaces, and there is also a free-standing larder.
Downstairs, a spacious sitting room has generous proportions, stripped floorboards and is not overlooked. Also on this level is an unusually large utility room, used as a workshop as well as a useful cellar/store. There’s access to a quiet courtyard with outside storage.
On the 1st floor, the inviting principal bedroom has plenty of historic character with panelling beneath the two large windows which bathe the room with light, oak flooring and free-standing wardrobes. Next door, the fabulous bathroom has a Victorian influence in the freestanding roll top bath, classic hand basin and exposed brickwork – but there is also LED lighting within the high end flooring.
On the 2nd floor, 3 more light and airy double bedrooms each have a mezzanine level to explore and share a stylish w.c. At the top of the house, the lit roof terrace is ideal for entertaining with 6.83 x 5.85m ( 22’4 x 19’2) to share with friends and enjoy panoramic views across Kemptown.
Vendors’ Comments:
“This is an ideal spot to have a full time home, high end investment or a b&b for holidays with something for everyone of any age from the boat trips, cinemas and waterfront restaurants of the Marina to vibrant central clubs or plays at the Theatre Royal. Local buses take you into or out of the city if you don’t want to walk to the Lanes or East Brighton Park which leads to open countryside, and inside the house is big enough to entertain in style.”

Good to Know:
Known for its bohemian atmosphere, specialist shops and a farmer’s market as well as having a Co-Op and a chemist, Kemptown Village is a sought after location by the sea. Its beaches are not yet discovered by crowds of tourists but have seafront bars, a lido, yoga studios, volleyball courts and Concord II, and both the marina and the pier are a stroll. Favoured by local professionals the hospital, law centres and Amex are nearby and the theatres and Lanes at Brighton’s historic heart are also within walking distance, either along the seafront or St James’ Street – which also hosts Pride. Although there’s no list for permit parking, you’re not tied to a car as buses go into the city and the station or out along the coast to the National Park.
