Hill Drive, Hove

A beautifully considered home in one of the area’s most sought-after locations. There is an immediate sense of arrival at this exceptional five-bedroom home. Set in the coveted Hill Drive, where the setting and sea views are very much part of everyday life, this is a home that feels both impressive and effortlessly comfortable.

Behind its grand entrance hall, a bespoke staircase makes an immediate impression, setting the tone for the design-led finish found throughout the house. The accommodation then opens into a series of beautifully connected spaces, created with modern living in mind.

At the heart of the home is a generous open-plan living and dining space, with a truly gorgeous kitchen positioned towards the rear. It is a room made for spending time in, whether that is a quiet morning coffee, a long lunch with friends or evenings gathered around the kitchen

There is also a welcome choice of separate living spaces, giving the house a versatility that is increasingly hard to find. The result is a home that works equally well for entertaining, family life or simply having somewhere to retreat to. Practicality has been considered just as carefully. A separate utility room keeps the everyday essentials discreetly tucked away, while the former garage has been thoughtfully transformed into a private gym, adding another dimension to the accommodation without compromising on the home’s sense of space.

Upstairs, the proportions continue. Five genuinely well-sized bedrooms are complemented by two beautifully appointed bathrooms, with the principal bedroom enjoying a luxurious four-piece en-suite. Several parts of the home enjoy sea views, adding an ever-changing backdrop to the day and reminding you just how special the location is.

Outside, the garden is a particular highlight. Private and wonderfully secluded, it feels like a natural extension of the house, somewhere to enjoy long summer evenings, children’s play or simply a little peace and quiet. Tucked within the garden is a separate office, thoughtfully designed as a flexible additional space that could work equally well as a studio, creative room or somewhere to work away from the main house.

With driveway parking, excellent bedroom and bathroom accommodation, a wealth of versatile living space and a finish that reflects a clear eye for design, this is a home that requires very little beyond moving in and enjoying it. Turn-key, beautifully finished and offering approximately 2,961 sq ft of accommodation, this is a premium home in a dream location, one that manages to feel considered and sophisticated without ever losing the warmth of a house designed to be lived in.
