A Regency-style house with vintage decor in Brighton, just steps from the sea
Discover Belgrave Place, a vintage Regency-style house in Brighton. Historic charm and a coastal atmosphere await
Belgrave Place in Brighton is a Regency-style house with vintage decor. Built in the 1840s in the heart of Kemp Town, this listed stucco building is part of a row of terraced houses. From every room with its high ceilings, you can gaze out at the sea, the English Channel is so close.
The Kemp Town neighborhood developed at a time when Brighton was England’s chic seaside destination. The houses on Belgrave Place still bear this legacy with their generous sash windows and classic proportions.
Inside, the layout follows classic Regency logic. The ground floor is organized around a central kitchen featuring custom Shaker-style cabinetry, an oak countertop, and, set within the original fireplace, a gas Aga stove, the centerpiece of any self-respecting English kitchen. While every room in the house is remarkable, the kitchen is truly the one that captures our full attention.
It’s a family-friendly space that flows into a dining room, perfect for entertaining and gathering. You’ll also enjoy the charming, sunny garden at the back of the house, an undeniable asset for this seaside townhouse.
It is on the first floor that the house truly reveals its personality. The reception room is a showcase of vintage decor at its finest: decorative period moldings, carefully preserved original woodwork, and an open fireplace. The furniture looks as though it comes from family heirlooms or finds at antique shops. Double doors open onto a library. A hallway leads to a more secluded bedroom/office. Further up, the master suite features a bathroom with double sinks, a separate shower, and, the detail that makes all the difference, a claw-foot bathtub.
Belgrave Place is a two-minute walk from the seafront. Oblique views of the English Channel open up from every floor, changing color with the time of day and the season.
