This bay-fronted Victorian mid-terrace offers a generous, family-friendly layout across two storeys, with about 1,035 sq ft of living space and a sympathetic rear extension. High ceilings, decorative fireplaces, cornicing and light oak floors combine with contemporary finishes to provide a home that feels both characterful and lived-in. The property is freehold and heated by a mains gas boiler with radiators.
On the ground floor a wide entrance hall leads to a flexible through lounge and dining area that can be divided by glazed doors, plus a family-sized open-plan kitchen/diner — well suited to everyday family life and entertaining. Upstairs are three double bedrooms and a single white-suite bathroom; storage is good throughout. The south- and east-facing rear garden is private, enclosed and small-to-average in size, ideal for children and low-maintenance outdoor use.
Location is a strong selling point: tucked just off Portland Road, the home sits within walking distance of Hove seafront, independent shops, cafés and a mix of amenities. Several well-regarded primary and secondary schools are nearby, and the wider area is affluent with low crime and fast broadband.
Practical considerations: the building is a pre-1900 solid-brick Victorian terrace and the walls are likely uninsulated, so thermal upgrades could be useful. Double glazing is present though install date is unknown. There’s a single bathroom for three double bedrooms and the rear plot is modest in size — factors worth considering for larger families or those seeking extensive outdoor space. Overall this is a character-rich, well-located family house with scope for energy improvements and internal reconfiguration if desired.
