Description

Set within a handsome period building on a sought-after tree-lined avenue, this spacious split-level apartment offers bright, well-proportioned living in the heart of Hove. 

Occupying the upper floors, the apartment has a wonderful sense of light and space throughout, enhanced by high ceilings, arched windows and charming period details. The layout feels both practical and versatile, making it equally well suited to single living, a couple, commuters or a small family, as well as those looking for a lock-up-and-leave coastal home.

Accessed via a well-kept communal hallway and up the stairs, the apartment’s private entrance opens into an internal hall where a modern, tiled bathroom is located, complete with a bath and overhead shower. Stairs then rise to the main accommodation, where the apartment really comes into its own.

The living space is particularly impressive – a generous, south-facing living and dining room with a vaulted ceiling, creating an airy and uplifting environment filled with natural light. It’s a room designed for both relaxing and entertaining, with ample space to dine, unwind and enjoy.

The separate kitchen is well-equipped and thoughtfully arranged, featuring contemporary grey cabinetry, extensive storage and a large range cooker. A dedicated utility area at the far end adds further practicality.

There are three well-proportioned bedrooms, each benefiting from built-in storage. One enjoys the added comfort of an en-suite shower room, while all rooms retain a sense of character through period fireplaces and generous proportions. Wooden flooring runs through the main living areas and hallways, with carpeting in the bedrooms for added comfort. 

Further benefits include an off-street parking space – a valuable addition in this central location – and the property is offered chain free for a smooth onward purchase.

Perfectly positioned, the apartment places you within easy reach of everything that makes Hove so desirable – from morning walks in the park and coffee on Church Road, to evenings by the sea.
