[Brighton] David Gilmour selling his Hove seafront house . £15 Million

[faoileán]

It's butt ugly from the outside.

No it's not. That was a good argument...

Very nice, if I was a lottery winner I’d certainly be interested. Not sure I believe the line about catching fish on the beach though.

I was a bit cynical about that too mate. Sounds great as an advertisement for the house, but the reality

I love the location, not overly busy or noisy like Brighton & not boring & isolated like Saltdean etc but sadly out of my budget by quite a bit !

Perfect in every way except the surfeit of cushions

The article also states it has "ample parking" ? Where could this be?

As an aside the location is quite possibly my favourite part of the beach. When I lived up the road and was working from home I would always go there in the summer over lunch and sit on the beach with an ice cream from Maroccos. The Neptune is such a lovely proper pub as well. Keep your fingers crossed for my lottery win.

Saltdean boring and isolated... yeah it's only got a beach, lido, undercliff walk, loads of routes straight into the Downs and 10/15 mins into middle of Brighton... can think of far more 'boring' and isolated places

As reported by mansionglobal, the bespoke custom built house which is around 8000 sq feet and located next to Marroccos on Hove seafront is going to go on the market . Price £15 big ones .

Beautifully built by a specialist London building firm it was created to be sympathetic with the original Turkish baths on the site . Building costs for such a bespoke property of that size using a central London building firm will be super high , I’m guesstimating at least £6 million to build without the cost of the interior

it’s a fantastic beach location & you are close to all the facilities of church road . I’m guessing because the house has a large recording studio , someone in the music business will probably end up being the new owner .

It will easily be the most expensive single residence sold in the city .

Who really cares unless you have the readies to buy

I do a lot of Zoopla snooping and this is one of the few recent houses WITHOUT a ubiquitous flaming gutar on the wall ...........but he doesn't really need to look trendy!

£15m and all you can hear in your back garden is [MENTION=15605]knocky1[/MENTION] moaning. No thanks.

He has 3 or more parking spaces behind Spa Court outside the recording studio.

Prices are crazy. 6 bedroom penthouse at Battersea Power Station. Think I’d prefer Dave’s place, but the penthouse would look great with a giant pig floating above it.

It’s not even a particular nice part of London . At that price I would expect it to be in South Kensington, Mayfair, Chelsea or Hampstead village etc not battersea , which is ok it’s not Peckham but it’s not particularly upmarket an area either .

Saltdean boring and isolated... yeah it's only got a beach, lido, undercliff walk, loads of routes straight into the Downs and 10/15 mins into middle of Brighton... can think of far more 'boring' and isolated places

Apologies I was referring to the lack of decent coffee shops , bakeries & independent restaurants in the area , in fact the whole area from Roedean to Peacehaven , it just looks all very light on these types of facilities . I guess you can always drive to kemp town .

Ignore that

Ah, yes in that respect not so great, but as the demographics are changing I think both will slowly change in that respect - obviously not to the extent of Hove though!

Being next to Morrocco’s clinched it for me, I do like an ice cream.

And only a block away from the free food at the Coop!

Fair point. It’s not isolated.

Happy days

New venue for the Church of Potter?

I suspect I could find somewhere better for £15 million than a comparatively small pad on Hove seafront.

The courtyard is especially disappointing.
