The mansion maintains a magnitude of original features including alabaster pillars, marble fireplaces, decorative integral wall paintings, intricate plasterwork and one of Brighton’s most spectacular staircases.
No. 9 has been home to the same family for 25 years but is now being offered for sale so a new owner can put their stamp on this historic home.
The décor manages to be both in keeping with the property and utterly unique at the same time. The ground floor greets you with a bright, marbled hallway replete with majestic, sweeping stone staircase creating a breath-taking centrepiece as it winds up through the floors.
