Description

This two-bedroom apartment, situated in the sought-after St Margarets flats, boasts striking sea views and a rich historical character, having been constructed in 1938 with Art Deco influences by the notable architect RWH Jones. The building itself is well-preserved with smooth-rendered exteriors and elegant curved balconies that echo the style of ocean liners. Inside, while the flat is currently well-maintained, there is notable potential for modernization to truly maximize its charm and functionality. The spacious living area at the front offers stunning sea vistas and leads onto a wrap-around balcony facing south-west, ideal for capturing sunsets. Both bedrooms enjoy direct sea views and come equipped with built-in wardrobes. The kitchen, while functional, could benefit from an upgrade to enhance its appeal; it features space for essential appliances including a freestanding cooker and fridge freezer. The bathroom has standard amenities but presents an opportunity for refurbishment to create a more contemporary space. Located in the historic village of Rottingdean, known for its picturesque settings and community spirit, this property not only offers a home but also an investment with promising renovation potential amid a vibrant location near Brighton's amenities.
