Summary - The Drive, Hove BN3 3PE
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Generous one-bed with high ceilings, garage and share of freehold near Hove station and seafront.
Large 743 sq ft one-bedroom first-floor apartment
A spacious one-bedroom first-floor apartment on The Drive, offering light-filled rooms and generous proportions rarely found at this size in central Hove. The living room impresses with high ceilings, a large bay window and a flexible layout that suits entertaining, relaxing or home-working. The separate modern kitchen is bright and practical, and the double bedroom includes fitted storage and a feature window.
Practical ownership benefits include a long lease (988 years) and a share of the freehold, plus a private garage at the rear. The building has been recently maintained with a new main roof and the garage roof renewed, reducing near-term exterior costs. Service charges are charged at £1,066.38 per six months.
Buyers should note the property dates from the 1950–1966 period, so some original-period details coexist with later updates; the cavity walls are assumed to lack insulation, which may mean future thermal improvement work is desirable. Crime levels and area deprivation are average; broadband and mobile signals are strong and Hove Station plus the seafront are within easy reach.
This apartment suits a first-time buyer or couple seeking space, character and location — particularly those who value proximity to transport links and the seafront, but are happy to carry out modest energy-efficiency upgrades over time.
