Why You’ll Like it ...
On the west side of the private gardens of Lewes Crescent, this exceptional apartment is on the top two floors of an impressive building. Broad steps lead up to the front communal door after which you climb up, first a tall staircase, then from a landing, you take a twisting staircase that leads to the apartment’s front door. This apartment is arranged so that the three bedrooms, bathroom and kitchen are on this first floor and the living space is above, at the top of the building. Planning permission has been gained to move the kitchen up to the top floor and to put a dressing room and en-suite bathroom in its place and this feels like a more natural layout, both practically and aesthetically. At the moment two of the bedrooms have fabulous views out across the gardens to the marina. The master bedroom, has wooden floorboards and an elegant original fireplace and two large sash windows. Next to this, the kitchen also has wooden floorboards and views across the mews houses and roof tops below to the west. The traditional styled kitchen has a central aisle with electric hob. This is a great sized kitchen and whilst by no means essential it would make sense to move the kitchen upstairs and indulge in an en-suite and dressing area here. Back towards the entrance the third bedroom has westerly views and is next to the family bathroom.
This is already an impressive apartment with large bedrooms and fabulous views but it is upstairs that really takes your breath away. This space covers the entire area of the floor below – but as an amazing single open space almost 30 feet square. This room feels like a luxury penthouse and is an exceptionally large and deep space. The ceiling angles up following the contours of the roof making the room tall. It’s wonderfully light and airy with three huge windows looking out to the front of the house and three at the back. The centre window at the front is a French window leading out onto a wide balcony with wooden balustrade that looks out over the gardens and sea front. At the back a similar doorway leads out to the west facing roof terrace. This decked area is the perfect size for a large table to dine out on and has a fascinating outlook over Kemp Town Place.
Already a fantastic home, with a new configuration and modern kitchen and bathrooms this would be an outstanding home perfectly positioned in this spectacular and prestigious crescent.
Bear in mind...
Before you get to enjoy this amazing home and the space inside you do have to climb up a fair number of steps. But is absolutely worth it and you can then reward yourself taking in the wonderful elevated views from the balcony.
