Bright two-bedroom flat with garage and excellent commuter links.
West-facing balcony with elevated city and coastline views
Set on an upper floor of a well-regarded 1960s purpose-built block, this two-bedroom apartment delivers bright, airy rooms and a wide west-facing balcony with elevated views across the city towards the sea. The open-plan living area flows on to the balcony, making the most of the sunny aspect, while two double bedrooms and a practical fitted kitchen suit everyday living or letting.
Practical perks include a private garage and the option to buy an additional garage nearby, plus a share of freehold and a chain-free sale for a straightforward move. The location is a major selling point: a short level walk to Hove mainline station, Church Road shops, bars and cafés, and the seafront and esplanade within easy reach.
Buyers should note the property’s construction era and services: heating is by electric room heaters and the glazing was installed before 2002. External walls are cavity as-built with no added insulation (assumed), so there is likely scope to improve energy efficiency. Internal inspection recommended to confirm condition and any modernisation needs.
This apartment suits first-time buyers seeking central coastal living, and investors attracted to strong rental demand in this cosmopolitan area. The combination of location, balcony views and private garage gives clear short-term usability while offering straightforward potential for upgrading to improve comfort and running costs.
