Flight of the Starlings

Realistically, there's only one place to start with at this apartment and that's the gorgeous sea view. The best spot to appreciate this is from the living room that benefits from three curved Georgian windows, but Brighton Pier can also be spotted from two of the bedrooms, too. As well as making this home a great vantage point for catching the city's famous starling murmurations, it also brings in copious amounts of natural light, which dances satisfyingly off the wooden floor and cleansingly white walls. Renovated in 2020, the interior feels thoroughly modern, but the choice of classic furnishings, including the antique dining table, pays homage to Brighton's long and regal history. It's also easy to get a flavour of the city's heritage from the fabulous location in the Kemptown neighbourhood. The Royal Pavilion, for instance, is only fifteen minutes' walk away, while the Palace Pier takes less than ten.
