Summary - 15b Cromwell Road BN3 3EA
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Characterful one-bedroom with large private garden near station and seafront.
Private entrance and lower-ground mansion conversion layout
A bright, well-presented one-bedroom lower-ground mansion conversion with its own private entrance and an unusually large enclosed rear garden — a rare find so close to Hove station and Church Road. The bay-fronted lounge/diner and high ceilings give the flat a spacious, characterful feel while the separate modern kitchen and shower room make it move-in ready for a single buyer or couple.
Practical benefits include a long lease (c.996 years) and a share of freehold, plus mains gas central heating and double glazing installed since 2002. At about 495 sq ft, the layout suits first-time buyers, pied-à-terre owners or landlords seeking a central Hove rental with excellent transport links and easy access to the seafront.
Be clear about limitations: the flat sits on the lower ground floor, so natural light is more limited than upper-floor apartments. The building has solid brick walls likely without cavity insulation, which can mean higher heating costs and potential for colder walls. The surrounding area has higher-than-average crime and local deprivation indicators, so prospective buyers should check the neighbourhood themselves and consider security measures.
Overall, this is a practical, characterful city-flat with a genuinely large private garden and strong local convenience. It offers immediate comfort and good ownership security via the long lease and share of freehold, though buyers should weigh light levels and potential thermal upgrade costs when deciding.
