As a result, the property includes unique Regency decorative features not found in other homes on the development. The proportions and architectural detail encapsulate the fashions of the Regency era; hinting at extravagance and the desire and capacity for formal entertaining. Angel House has enjoyed a unique and interesting history. Its custodians include Z Cars actress, Sidonie Bond, who lived in the house in the 1970s, and author, Nigel Richardson, who wrote Breakfast in Brighton whilst living at the property in the late 90s.
