Set on one of Hove’s most desirable central streets, this ground-floor Victorian apartment combines generous space, outdoor privacy and outstanding location. The bright lounge overlooks a private rear garden with side access — a rare find so close to the seafront and local amenities. At about 93 sq.m (993 sq.ft), the layout includes a separate kitchen with breakfast area, two double bedrooms, a family bathroom plus separate WC, offering practical everyday living and scope to reconfigure.
The property is offered chain-free with a Share of Freehold and sits just two blocks from Hove seafront and within easy reach of Hove mainline station — convenient for commuters and seaside living. Period features such as high ceilings, bay windows and exposed brick offer character and strong potential for a sympathetic renovation to boost value and comfort.
Buyers should note this apartment requires updating: the listing records the property as needing renovation and walls are likely solid brick with no added insulation. Main heating is listed as electric storage heaters (the marketing text also referenced gas heating — prospective buyers should verify the heating system). There is clear potential for improvement, but works may be needed to modernise heating, insulation, kitchen and bathroom finishes.
This is an attractive opportunity for first-time buyers or couples seeking a sizeable, characterful home near the coast with garden space and redevelopment potential. With planning and investment, the apartment can be transformed into a bright, efficient seaside home or a high-demand rental in a sought-after Hove location.
