1899 by Lainson & Sons. Block of 8 flats, arranged over 4 floors with attic. The building formed part of a larger scheme by Lainson, but this was the only building of this scheme to be constructed. Series of dutch gables along the skyline and a turret to the southwest corner. Main entrance and timber balconies located on the seafront (south) elevation. Heavy mullioned windows in a range of designs including canted bays. Unusually, the render is painted yellow, with architectural details picked out in white. Source: Middleton 2002
ii. A good example of a turn of the century block of seafront flats; the proximity of the seafront influencing the flamboyance of the design
iv. A good example of a work by local architect Lainson & Sons.
ii. Located outside a conservation area, the building contributes greatly to the streetscene
iii. The building forms a visual focal point along the Hove seafront, especially when approaching from the west. Its striking colour scheme contributes to this.
i. The exterior of the building appears to survive largely intact
