2 Bed Flat For Sale

Rising above Brighton Marina within the landmark 1930s Marine Gate, this seventh-floor apartment blends panoramic sea views with Art Deco glamour. It is seaside living at its finest, and perks such as a 24/7 concierge, communal gardens with community events, and a private garage make this a rare find.

You enter the building through the main front doors into a well-maintained lobby. A lift takes you to the seventh floor where you’ll find the front door to the apartment. Inside, the wow-factor hits as soon as you step through the door. A striking hallway with golden Luberon Thibault wallpaper opens to over 32ft of open-plan living space where a wall of energy efficient windows frames the view of the English Channel. The bespoke blue kitchen is beautifully planned with Corian worktops, integrated appliances, and even a hidden bar for cocktails or coffee, while the dining space and living area flow seamlessly onto the south-facing balcony. From here you can watch the waves roll in, the yachts sail out, and the sun setting behind the horizon.

Two generous double bedrooms are tucked quietly away at the back of the apartment, each with their own bathroom for privacy. The principal suite feels like a sanctuary, with built-in wardrobes and a spa-style en-suite with high end fittings including a Crosswater digital shower and Japanese influenced auto wash w.c. The second bedroom shares views over the back of the building towards Brighton Racecourse and the South Downs National Park.

The building itself offers far more than an address. There’s a 24/7 concierge, lift, manicured grounds, communal heating and hot water, plus a welcoming community with social events, a private library and luggage drop. Opposite the Marina’s waterfront restaurants, cinemas and health club, with Kemptown’s vibrant scene just a stroll away, it’s perfectly placed for both city buzz and quiet retreat.

Practical perks include a garage big enough to park in, bus routes to the city and station, and easy connections to Gatwick and London.

A note from the owners

We were immediately struck by how bright and spacious the apartment felt – and the views are simply stunning. Watching the sea change through the day, from sunsets to passing yachts and even the odd storm, never gets old.

The balcony quickly became a favourite spot, perfect for soaking up the sun or enjoying the evening air. The building is well maintained, with neat gardens, quiet communal areas and the reassurance of 24/7 security. Even small touches, like daily rubbish collection from a side corridor, make life easier.
