A Brighton flat boasting direct sea views and a prime beachside location has hit the market with a surprisingly accessible price tag of £130,000. The significant caveat for potential buyers is the property's exceptionally compact size, measuring a total of just 15 square metres.
A Cosy Coastal Retreat in Bohemian Kemptown
Nestled in the heart of east Brighton's "bohemian" Kemptown Village, this first-floor studio is marketed as a "cosy and functional" space, with all furniture and appliances included. The listing, highlighted by Luxury Property News, promises "gorgeous sea views" and a homely feel, despite its miniature proportions.
The interior layout demonstrates clever, if cramped, utilisation of space. The main room serves as a combined living and bedroom area, where a double bed is positioned to one side. A narrow walkway leads to a sofa, while the kitchen is situated directly behind the bed. This adjoining kitchen area is equipped with a table-top hob, a microwave, a toaster, and a sink.
Making the Most of a Tiny Footprint
On the opposite side of the studio, a small dining table with room for two chairs offers a spot for meals, though entertaining would be a challenge. A saving grace for the sense of space is a large bay window which floods the room with natural light and frames the coastal vista.
The property agents note that original features throughout "add character and charm, making it feel like a true home". The bathroom, described as slightly less crowded, contains a shower, toilet, and sink.
Potential Uses for a Pint-Sized Pad
Given its size and location, the flat presents a range of potential uses beyond full-time residence. It could serve as a creative studio, a convenient city pad for a busy professional, or a weekend coastal retreat. The property is being sold by estate agents Jacobs Steel.
This listing underscores the intense demand and premium prices associated with property in one of the UK's most sought-after coastal cities, where even the smallest spaces with a desirable view command a significant sum.
