Description

This spacious maisonette, nestled within a striking Grade 1 Listed Building, presents a unique opportunity for renovation enthusiasts and investors. Spanning approximately 1,900 square feet across the garden and ground levels, this property is in need of complete refurbishment, providing a blank slate to reimagine its potential. All necessary planning consents and listed building permissions have been secured, permitting a transformative redesign that could elevate both functionality and aesthetic appeal. The proposed alterations include creating an expansive lounge area by removing internal walls, which would significantly enhance the open-plan feel while incorporating French doors to open up both front and rear courtyards. This expansive design aims to restore the maisonette's former grandeur while substantially increasing its market value. In addition to the private rear courtyard, residents can enjoy an elevated terrace on the first floor and access to beautifully maintained gardens exclusive to Sussex Square residents, further enhancing this property's allure. The proximity to secure gardens and a tunnel leading directly to the seafront adds additional charm and desirability, making it an excellent investment opportunity for those looking to create a bespoke living space.
