A top-floor, three-bedroom apartment in central Hove offered chain free and presented in excellent decorative order. The flat benefits from a west-facing living room that captures good afternoon light, a modern fitted kitchen and a white bathroom suite — ready to move into with minimal immediate work.
The property sits in a mid‑20th‑century red‑brick purpose‑built block, within a short walk of Hove station, the seafront and local shops and eateries. The 164‑year lease provides long-term security for owners or investors, and the footprint (approx. 813 sqft) suits a small family or buy‑to‑let portfolio.
Buyers should note material running costs and maintenance points: the service charge is relatively high due to an increased reserve fund for planned works, and the kitchen shows signs of ventilation and mould concerns that need attention. As a top‑floor apartment accessed by communal stairs, there is no confirmed lift access — consider mobility and future access needs when viewing.
Overall this is a well‑presented, low‑maintenance home in a desirable Hove location with strong commuter and seaside appeal. It offers immediate usability, sensible long‑term lease length, and potential for a comfortable family residence or rental income, provided buyers factor in service charges and minor renovation items.
