Set within the iconic Grand Ocean building in Saltdean, this beautifully presented one bedroom apartment offers a rare blend of architectural character, modern comfort and coastal lifestyle.
Originally designed in 1938 by renowned Art Deco architect R. W. H. Jones, Grand Ocean is one of Saltdean’s most celebrated landmark buildings. Over the decades it has lived many lives – from luxury hotel, to fire service college during the war years, to Billy Butlin’s holiday camp in the 1950s, and even a backdrop for period dramas including Poirot. Today, following a sensitive conversion into luxury apartments in 2010, the building retains much of its original glamour, with the breathtaking central spiral staircase standing as a show-stopping reminder of its heritage.
Inside, the apartment itself is finished to a lovely modern standard. The open-plan living and kitchen space is bright and welcoming, with westerly views across the communal gardens and out towards Saltdean – perfect for golden hour sunsets. The double bedroom is generous in size with high ceilings and beautiful windows that flood the space with natural light, complemented by a stylish en-suite. A separate guest WC adds a practical touch for visitors.
Further benefits include a private, allocated underground parking space and access to the residents’ gym within the building (via membership), making this an ideal home for professionals, downsizers or anyone seeking a low-maintenance coastal base with a bit of wow-factor.
