An elegant first floor apartment ideally located on the beach and within a short walk of many independent shops, street markets, pavement cafés, restaurants, and De La Warr Pavilion. Bexhill on Sea with its elegant two mile promenade, award winning beach with a wide expanse of sand and broad streets retains some of the charm and style that made it a favourite retreat of the Edwardian aristocracy.. Adjacent to the properties at Channel View and Marina Court Avenue is the world famous Grade 1 Listed De La Warr Pavilion, which offers an excellent arts programme throughout the year. Commissioned in 1935 it was the first public building in Britain to be built in the International style, so that it embodied an optimistic and progressive view, with a revolutionary structure of glass, welded steel and concrete. Widely recognised as a perfect example of the Modern Movement style with its low horizontal appearance, ribbon windows and curtain walls, it has a large contemporary art gallery with an exciting arts programme, a shop specialising in books on art and culture and a café- restaurant. In addition, Bexhill has an active sailing club, a rowing club, a modern leisure centre, an indoor swimming pool, tennis courts, bowling clubs and two golf courses. Windsurfing and kitesurfing are available at nearby Normans Bay.
