This well-presented ground-floor one-bedroom apartment in Hove offers a rare combination of private outdoor space and an off-street parking space — practical benefits that suit first-time buyers or those downsizing. The flat has its own entrance and a sunny, south-facing garden that works as a genuine extension of the living space for plants, seating and a shed.
Inside, a modernised cottage-style kitchen and a bright living room with large west-facing windows provide comfortable, everyday living across compact but well-laid-out rooms. The property benefits from double glazing, mains gas central heating and a generous feeling of light, making it ready to move into with minimal work.
Important practical details: the property is leasehold with 97 years remaining, an annual service charge of £800 (covering around 30% of building maintenance costs), and no ground rent. The overall footprint is small at approximately 387 sq ft, so the home suits an individual or couple rather than families needing larger space.
Location is a strong point: tucked on a quiet residential road with good transport links, including nearby Portslade mainline station and local bus routes into Brighton. Be aware the wider area records above-average crime and sits in a more deprived local authority area — factors to consider for buyers prioritising neighbourhood indicators.
