> A stunning fireworks celebration and positive feedback round off a great first month
T
he sound and light show to mark the opening of British Airways i360, rounded off by fireworks against a backdrop of the West Pier and a full moon, were spectacular. I was lucky enough to be on our boarding deck during the show and particularly enjoyed the ‘Close Encounters’ space themed music (we do think the pod looks like a space ship!). We are continuing to have an amazing first month and are packed every day since opening. The feedback from customers has been Credit: BA overwhelmingly positive: they are i360 / Gary loving the views, the onboard Eastwood Nyetimber Sky Bar (serving the finest drinks from Sussex) and the smooth ride! Local residents are snapping up membership every few minutes! This week the Belle Vue restaurant will be opening for a soft launch quickly followed by the West Pier Tea Room. I've been lucky enough to test the menus and enjoy delicious food created using superb local ingredients. I'm looking forward to bringing my kids to try out the kids menus with a ‘make your own’ ice cream sundae activity, which will be a surefire winner with families. The views from the restaurant are incredible – it is a lovely relaxing spot to while away some time. Why Belle Vue? It is named after Belle Vue Field, the former name of Regency Square (directly opposite the BA i360) in the 18th century, which featured in Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice! www.britishairwaysi360.com Twitter/Instagram: @ba_i360 Facebook: British Airways i360

> South Downs Lodges
T
he recent failure by the South Downs National Park Authority to stop the destruction of Pondtail Wood in Albourne was inexcusable. It was back in April this year that work started on the removal of thirteen acres of protected woodland not far from the Ginger Fox restaurant. It wasn’t until long after the trees had been burnt and rubble dumped in their place that the Park Authority got involved. I’m desperately in need of a good news story to restore my faith in the organisation’s ability to deal with planning matters. One such example might be South Downs Lodges which is tucked between South Downs Nurseries, Hassocks Football Club, the railway line, Bonny’s Wood and the Brighton Road. Had it not been for the Tates family, the site may well have ended up densely packed with 43 caravans. As owners of South Downs Nurseries nextdoor, it made sense for the family to purchase the site. The proposed caravan park made no sense at all so the family put forward new plans for five attractive cedarclad lodges with views towards Ditchling Beacon. There is also a restored barn and French gypsy caravan. Given the overpopulated nature of this part of the country, development within the National Park is pretty much inevitable. How it is handled is key. The lodges are attractive in this location and do feel traditional. Each is packed with eco features such as a timber frame, wooden windows, floorto ceiling glass to let in plenty of light, and galvanised guttering and drainpipes. As one would expect, the landscaping is tasteful and features photinias, formiums, mahonias and many other plants that grow well in Sussex. The lodges are let out through Blue Chip Holidays and achieve an occupancy that is only just shy of 100%. I can certainly see why. www.buildingopinions.com LATEST HOMES | 5

THE ISSUE Windows
> The blind leading the blind?
I
f you walk through our city you could be forgiven for thinking that it's curtains for curtains. The number of properties that have chosen wooden blinds, or their fashionable friends plantation shutters, as window dressings is incredible. Whole streets seem to have adopted them as an alternative to drapes and the fashion seems in no way to be in decline. So why? Well as a blind user I can certainly point out the main assets. Firstly blinds are tidy, they always look neat. A quality curtain with the right amount of fabric used to make them look good will also take up more space. They come forward off your windows if they are not recessed and need clearance if they are to fall properly and look good. Blinds are easy to keep clean too, a quick going over with a nozzle on your vacuum will do the trick every now and then. Unlike curtains they do not hang on to odours either and whereas with curtains to clean them you have to take them down and even send them away to be dry cleaned, often for quite a long time, blinds can be cleaned in place.
Blinds can offer the combination of light and privacy too. If you don't have a front garden and the pavement is busy, a blind will certainly cut down on the number of people who idly gaze into your home, and let's face it we all do that. A blind can be tilted to an angle that will let in light and not let in those prying eyes. It could be said that the blind has seen the end of the net curtain. Blinds have a smart and contemporary feel and have had for many years, it would seem that this is a fashion that is here to stay. So are there any down sides to fitting blinds? The only one that we can think of is that in combination with a solid floor a room can have a distinct echo. This is easily remedied by using rugs and soft furnishings to soften the sound but other than that blinds are a blindingly good solution for windows.

oes this column make you feel old? Depends how long you've been reading it, I suppose. If I said I'd been writing it every week for the past 15 years, would it make you feel old then? It doesn't exactly make me feel old, just a little alarmed that my lifestyle has not yet been sufficiently curtailed for me to have nothing to say. Surely I should have my feet up with the feminine equivalent of pipe and slippers by now? The reason I'm reminiscing slightly is because last week, when hoovering the new carpet he'd just fitted in one of my letting rooms, the carpetfitter accidentally smashed the electric socket clean off the wall. I had to seriously restrain myself from slapping him, as I already had an ambitious (and possibly totally unachievable) schedule to complete before the new tenant arrived the following afternoon. There was the broken Velux blackout blind that the old tenant had kindly left me to repair. Has anyone ever tried to repair a snarledup Velux blind? I should imagine there's some kind of masters degree in it. If YouTube is anything to go by, it's a universal pain in the a*** and there is no hard and fast solution. Anyway, I digress. As I had neither the time nor the inclination to replace the socket, I called my trusty electrician, whom I've known since he was 19. Because I was at work, The Small Daughter, who was drinking cider with her friends, had to go and let the electrician into the house. When he called to tell me that the new socket was fitted and working, he sheepishly admitted that he felt really old, seeing the tall version of The Small Daughter, as he'd first seen her when she was one week old. Perhaps you'll feel old too, when I tell you I had then just bought a 3 bed flat for £100,000. Those were the days...

PROJECT BRIGHTON > A rework of networking
B
righton and Hove is full of bright ideas, especially in business innovations and inspired community projects: they are so ingrained in our city we take them granted. We need only think of the many unique cafés and funky bars, Madeira Drive’s fortnightly events and rallies or Spiral Wave Radio’s media centre in Bevendean for adults with challenges. One such fledgling innovation begins this midSeptember, quietly in a small restaurant in the afternoon, inviting just nineteen people of enterprise to attend. Blending a payitforward ethos with speed and regular networking, here begins the story of Meet 19’s modest ambition to create a collective hub for commercial and community online resources. It’s a given that networking is an good way to meet other businesses and vie for leads, especially in Brighton and Hove where there are a wide variety of events to choose from. Not only are there annual stallholder conventions and prestige subscription organisations, there are popin gatherings and popup surgerystyle consulting networks in coffee houses and bars. With all these reallife options, plus virtual ones with eh hum, the internet, you’d be forgiven for believing there isn’t a new way to link with other associates. But aspiring network group Meet 19 are not only different, they are touting for difference. One of their unique selling points is that Meet 19 aims to have an equal mix of business with those looking for support, advice or opportunities. “It strikes me,” says cofounder Jonny
Wills, “That many companies are still weighed down by overly officious, HRtype practices. Where we fit in is to break that down a bit with a Google generation friendliness, getting great people to find each other that ordinarily wouldn’t know how.” Tilo Flache, Meet 19

Jonny runs Infinite Bridge, which provides website marketing, and with fellow founder Tilo Flache, selfstyled ‘cluttermeister’ and administration consultant at Outsorting, they both share the ambition to help grow client bases with a forwardthinking style. “Tilo and I both found common ground with new work philosophies such as Jason Fried and David Hansson’s ReWork project,” adds Jonny, “It’s been an inspiration for us, because consulting for big companies we’d also discovered how to do more enjoyable and productive business.”
@Samerbagaeen
“ One of the unique selling points of Meet 19 aims to have an equal mix of business, with those looking for advice, support or opportunites ” Another selling point for Meet 19 is subtle, yet obvious: it will be a more intimate gathering of attendees. Jonny puts it more candidly: “Normal events usually mean leaving with half a dozen cards having engaged in the same amount of lengthy conversations. If we’re honest, they’re not always that productive. We believe people will leave our event with nineteen cards, having wasted less time with oversellers and having hopefully met someone with that killer idea to blow their entrepreneurial mind.” Online the group can be found on LinkedIn (Meet 19 Network) for established business. Simultaneously there is a community organisation page on Facebook (facebook.com/meet19network) providing support, advice and ideas. Meet 19’s inaugural event is due to take place next month on Wednesday 14th September, 35pm at Edendum restaurant, East St, Brighton, BN1 1HQ. Attendance is by invite only. If you’d like your name on the list contact Jonny and Tilo at: Meet19Network@gmail.com, or call 07901 68 7575. www.meet19.uk Jonny Wils, Cofounder of Meet 19

e live in interesting times. We had the fanfare of the launch of the first rides on the British Airways i360. I hope to jump on board soon. We have the ongoing saga that is the rail dispute. GTR, the parent company of Southern trains, is moving forward with modernisation plans after the latest talks at Acas with the RMT ended without agreement. More one week strikes perhaps? There have been further walkouts on Eurostar and Virgin East Coast services. Some in the national press have called for unions to be prosecuted for deliberately shutting down national infrastructure. In the meantime, the Government and its national infrastructure gurus have been silent on these and other disputes. Thinking about other infrastructure, the Airport Commission concluded in July that expanded airport capacity is crucial for the UK’s longterm prosperity. We are still as far away from a decision now as we were when the Commission was set up and the issue is dropping off people’s radar. Exactly what the Government is betting on. Energy policy is no different. Brexit is unlikely to change much, if anything, in our energy relationships with our neighbours. The PM recently put on hold plans to build a nuclear power station, Hinkley Point C. The Government could look into restoring support for wind and solar, and beef up research into marine renewables but there are no indications at all that this could or would happen. Cities, the engine of our economy, are having a blast. Some of them at least. The Newcastle City Futures 2065 set out a fresh methodology for engaging urban communities on long term trends. Brighton and Hove needs something similar. Anyone? www.samerbagaeen.com LATEST HOMES | 9

uytolet investors have been invited to declare their interest in a stylish development of highquality seaside apartments in Saltdean. Local property specialist Leaders has brought 18 investment apartments in the newly redeveloped Grand Ocean building to the market, with prices starting from just £230,000. The one and twobedroom properties are finished to a high standard throughout and offer benefits such as underfloor heating, video entry systems and communal gardens. Some also include private outdoor space.
“ Explore Living has completed an
extensive restoration of the famous Art Deco building, which dates back to the 1930s ”
SEA STYLE
“Many of the apartments offer breathtaking views across the English Channel and towards Brighton, while modern, stylish and luxurious interiors are found throughout. This means they will always be a hit with tenants and allows landlords to invest with confidence. “With yields of more than five per cent and strong potential for capital growth in the medium to long term, we anticipate plenty of interest from landlords. Opportunities to invest in apartments of this quality and in such a beautiful location are rare.” While the Grand Ocean development is perfect for landlords seeking a shrewd investment, it is also ideal for firsttime buyers and those who are keen to secure a second home by the sea. Viewings are by appointment only and full details of each property are available on request. For more information or to arrange a viewing please contact Leaders in Western Road, Brighton on 01273 720714 or visit leaders.co.uk.
Explore Living has completed an extensive restoration of the famous Art Deco building, which dates back to the 1930s, as well as adding four brand new wings. All 18 of the properties are currently let under assured shorthold tenancies, with the majority generating a gross yield of more than five per cent. Andrew Hovey, Area Sales Manager for Sussex at Leaders, explains: “Grand Ocean is one of the most eyecatching buildings on the Sussex coastline and this is a golden opportunity to invest in one of its highspecification homes. 10 | LATEST HOMES

F
east your eyes on this well presented detached four bedroom, two bathroom, family home built in 2012 by Barratt Homes to their ‘Thornton’ design, and one of just a few properties of this design within the sought after second phase of the ‘Clayton Mills’ development. This home was purchased from new by the current owners, who had previously owned a smaller property on the first phase of the development and selected for its larger than average 52’ long fully enclosed rear garden. The property benefits from the remainder of a 10 year NHBC warranty and had several upgrades from the original specification selected by the owners at the time of build. In brief, the accommodation comprises: an entrance porch and front door leading into the hall, where the staircase rises to the first floor, where there is a useful understairs storage cupboard and a downstairs cloakroom. The sitting room is double aspect and was kept as one large through room rather then being split to create a small study as the original developer’s plans suggested. There is a double aspect fitted kitchen/breakfast/dining room, again kept as one large through room divided only by the floor coverings, as carpets in the dining area and porcelain tiled flooring in the kitchen/breakfast room. Off the kitchen area there is a small utility lobby with back door accessing the gardens. On the first floor, all rooms are accessed from the central landing. The master bedroom includes fitted wardrobe cupboards and an ensuite shower room/WC with oversized

shower cubicle. There is a fourth single bedroom utilised currently as a study. not only this, but there are also two further double bedrooms and a white family bathroom/WC. Outside the front gardens are stocked with various shrubs, there is a private driveway providing off road parking and access to the detached single garage (18’2 x 9’10). The rear garden measures 52’ in length and has been landscaped with a good sized patio, level lawns that are interspersed with shrubs and young specimen trees including an apple tree and a climbing passion flower adjoining the garage wall. This sizeable family home in a village location with nursery, primary and secondary schooling could see you through your family's entire education without the need to move home.

OPEN HOUSES > Savvy homeowners using Open House Day event to maximise on buyers’ market
T
he property market in the country is shaping to be a buyers’ market – stock shortages as a result of summer holidays and economic uncertainty has meant there are more buyers out there than there are houses available. This is driving momentum in key areas of the country, particularly safe havens in the British countryside. Savvy homeowners are taking advantage of this activity by using tried and tested marketing events like Open House Day to ensure their property is viewed by the widest possible audience. Strutt & Parker’s National Open House Day is a biannual event for all properties currently on the market with them. The next one will be taking place on Saturday the 8th October. Charlie Rosling, Partner at Strutt & Parker Lewes says: "The housing market after the EU referendum has been under scrutiny, facing predictable uncertainty with London taking most of the impact. It is fair to say that the country market has performed
resiliently by comparison, with the waterside and downsizer market looking especially buoyant.” “On the day of the results, we lost one deal from a client who was spooked and wanted to sit tight, but since then he has actually come back to us with the original offer. We are agreeing sales and we are still putting houses under offer: motivated buyers are still out there. There will be clients who have put their plans on hold until September because of summer holidays, so if you are planning to sell, all the more reason to get the wheels in motion now. Using a platform like Open House Day attracts buyers from all over the country and would certainly be an opportunity to not miss.” Most estate agents use Open Houses for single properties as ‘one offs’. The Strutt & Parker National Open House Day encourages as many people as possible to open their houses on the same day, making it a completely unique event. Prospective buyers that register have the chance to view as many properties as they wish, without the need to make appointments. Strutt & Parker, 01273 475411, lewes@struttandparker.com

AUCTION HOME > Auction House says the time is now ripe for first time buyers at auction
A
uction House, the UK’s most successful property auctioneer – which has a branch in Sussex – says that the time is now ripe for first time buyers to enter the auction room. Nick Muston explains: “The introduction of the 3 per cent Stamp Duty surcharge favours those buying for occupation – or what I call ‘buytolive’. Auction now provides a real opportunity for first time buyers to get a foot on the property ladder. Together with a plentiful supply of mortgage funds and this month’s drop in the base rate to a record low level, all the ingredients are in place for first time buyers to fare very well. “We are seeing examples of mortgage offers being issued within two weeks of application and there are deals around now where lenders are waiving application fees so there are first time and family buyers in our auction rooms with mortgage offers in place without any upfront spend. “Others are using funds from short term lenders to acquire unmortgageable properties for speedy refurbishment prior to occupying after remortgaging with a conventional lender. This new scenario has broadened the mix of buyers in our regional sale rooms and the good news for our vendors is that those buying to live will usually pay a higher price than investors and traders.” Auction House reported betterthanexpected results in July, despite the postBrexit slowdown which dampened expectations going into the month. The group sold 385 lots from 526 offered, delivering a success rate of 73 per cent and raising a total of £50.5 million.
“ All the ingredients are in
place for first time buyers to fare very well ”
Commenting on the figures, Nick added: “The Brexit factor led to forecasts of doom and gloom, which in reality we found to be wildly exaggerated. Whilst uncertainty is never helpful, and auctioneers had to be more selective with the stock being offered in their rooms, we still managed to achieve a very successful month of sales. “We now expect an early return to normal trading levels as we move into the autumn. The attraction is that auctions provide certainty for the seller too and with the speed that is often required. So we see the climate continuing to favour auction through to the end of 2017 and beyond.” For more information, go to www.auctionhouse.co.uk 14 | LATEST HOMES

NOW & THEN ANDY GARTH > Unusual sea views
I
've been given a page this week so as it’s hot and the seafront is busier than ever, I thought I would share some unusual photos from my collection. The first is of what looks like a workman having a rest while working on possibly Sussex Heights with a view down to Regency Square and along the coast. Not sure I could do that as it’s a long way down and today's health and safety officers might have something to say about it! The photo below (right) is of three Brighton Lifeguards from the early 1960s, and as with today's lifeguards they look fit and raring to go, although slightly overdressed with their trendy slacks on. They are sitting in a Brighton Corporation boat which probably weighed a ton and took ages to drag down the beach, but I'm sure they did a great job just like today's seafront patrol. (PS I would love to drive the buggy across the beach as it looks awesome). The photo directly below is a reminder of how manicured the seafront used to be with an army of corporation gardeners making the areas to the east and – as in the picture – the west of the West Pier look fantastic. It must have been a constant task with the everchanging weather and the sea salt to keep up the appearance of these areas, and it seems a shame that more greenery can't be present along that strip – especially now the BA i360 is a draw to visitors – as it would be nice to have some colour rather than concrete!
Next week I will be talking about the next auction of Brighton, Hove and Sussex items which is in September. Robert Jeeves of Step Back in Time and me of Brighton And Hove Stuff have collated another sale in excess of 200 lots, ranging from old brass plaques to postcards to books and photos – some not ever been seen before. If you have anything you would like to show me at the shop that you might think has some value, please email me. Brightonandhovestuff@gmail.com Or pop in the shop at 28 Western Road, Hove

Over the past six months the sales department has gone from strength to strength and I am looking forward to being involved in what looks set to be a very busy year for Leaders.” Max Shave, Leaders 119120 Western Road, Brighton.
