This lower-ground studio on Church Road offers a genuinely affordable entry into Hove, close to the seafront and Hove station. The open-plan living area with a defined sleeping zone, modern kitchen and shower room are presented in good decorative order — move-in ready for a single occupant or a couple.
The apartment benefits from high ceilings typical of the period building and large windows that bring natural light into the space. Its compact footprint (approximately 466 sq ft) keeps running costs lower and simplifies maintenance, making it straightforward for a first home or a hands-off rental let.
There are important practical points to note. The flat is leasehold and located on the lower ground floor, so there is no private outside space. Heating is by electric room heaters and the building’s solid brick construction likely has limited insulation, which may affect energy efficiency and running costs. Buyers should check the remaining lease term, service charges and any communal maintenance responsibilities.
Overall, this studio is best suited to someone seeking a central Hove base with minimal refurbishment required, or an investor looking for a city-centre rental with easy access to transport and seafront amenities.
