Set just one block from the seafront and a five-minute walk to Hove station, this split-level second-floor flat offers 872 sqft of comfortable living in a handsome Victorian terrace. The apartment has two double bedrooms, a large west-facing lounge that floods with afternoon light, and an airy kitchen/breakfast room — practical spaces for everyday life and entertaining.
Practical benefits include a share of freehold, chain-free sale and access to a communal garden. Utilities are straightforward: mains gas boiler and radiators, double glazing (install date unknown), fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Council tax is described as low and there is no flood risk for the area.
There are some material points to note. The building is pre-1900 with solid brick walls and assumed no cavity insulation, so heating costs may be higher than modern stock; the EPC is D. Service charge is approximately £1,680 per year. The property is on the second/third level of a split layout, so there are internal stairs and limited accessibility for those with mobility issues. Local crime levels are reported as high; buyers should satisfy themselves on safety and security measures.
This flat will suit a buyer who values central Hove living — commuters, first-time buyers and downsizers wanting proximity to shops, schools, transport and the seafront. It also has uncomplicated purchase mechanics (share of freehold, chain free) and scope for energy-efficiency improvements and cosmetic updating to increase comfort and value.
