Summary
This is without doubt one of the most unique properties for sale in Brighton. It is a two bedroom cottage located on the esplanade with direct sea views, above the Reading Rooms and has use of The Kemp Town Enclosures!
Description
Located in an enviable and unique position on the esplanade just above the beach, this cottage is one of a pair. This one is known as Constable's Cottage, was once occupied by the estate constable and is of historical interest in Brighton and is Grade II listed.
Accessed from behind a secure gate inside the enclosures the internal layout is designed for modern living and has charm with the ground floor having large Georgian arched windows looking out to sea. The ground floor has wooden flooring and a high quality modern kitchen. The upper floor has both the double bedrooms with vaulted ceilings and once again sea views along with the large bathroom.
Kemp town enclosures
These renowned enclosures offer six acres private, well tended and landscaped gardens. Only local residents have access. The layout has been designed to offer sheltered mature planting, open grass spaces, and uniquely a private tunnel leading down to the esplanade & Brighton Beach, and it is believed that the passage gave Lewis Carroll the idea for the rabbit hole in 'Alice in Wonderland' while he was a resident there.
