About
A Collection Two Bed Apartments With Parking & Balconies In The Heart Of Rottingdean.
Introducing The St Aubyn’s Development in Rottingdean, a collection of contemporary 1 & 2 bedroom affordable apartments set within the historic grounds of the former St Aubyns School.
These lift-serviced homes offer spacious open-plan living with wood-effect flooring, sleek handleless Clerkenwell kitchens with integrated oven and ceramic hob, and modern bathrooms featuring rainfall showers and heated towel rails.
Bedrooms are well-proportioned with neutral carpets, while hallways include useful fitted storage and a video entry system.
Each apartment enjoys private outdoor space in the form of a balcony with composite decking or a paved patio.
Energy efficient with EPC ratings of B/C and air source heat pumps, the homes also come with a new 999-year lease, allocated parking with EV options, visitor spaces, and new walkways providing easy access to Rottingdean High Street.
Location Rottingdean is a charming coastal village with a strong community feel, offering a great mix of green space, culture, and independent amenities.
At its heart is award-winning Kipling Gardens, named after former resident Rudyard Kipling, featuring woodland walks, rose gardens, and a local croquet club.
Nearby, The Grange provides a cultural hub with an art gallery, museum, and tea garden, showcasing local history and exhibitions.
On the seafront, Rottingdean Terraces hosts an open-air stage with regular summer performances, adding to the village’s seasonal atmosphere.
The village has a strong selection of independent food and drink spots, including The Plough Inn by the pond, The Black Horse (dating back to 1513), The Windmill Bakery & Delicatessen, Shane’s Kitchen, Open Art Café, and the historic Trellis Restaurant & Tea Rooms.
Molly’s Coffee Shop also sits on the beachfront, popular year-round for drinks and light bites. Everyday essentials are well covered with local independents such as Devesons Grocers and G.R.
Rushman butchers. For further shopping, nearby Brighton & Hove offers everything from boutique interiors and bookstores to designer shops, galleries, and the famous Lanes.
