A well-proportioned one-bedroom ground-floor flat in central Hove, offered with a rare share of the freehold and chain-free possession. The apartment sits in a Victorian terrace and benefits from high ceilings and a large double bedroom with a bay window that brings generous daylight to the front. At the rear a living room opens onto a west-facing garden that catches afternoon sun — a valuable outdoor space for an urban flat.
Internally the layout is practical for a single occupant or couple: separate kitchen, modern bathroom suite and an open living area that flows to the garden. The property footprint is typical for a one-bedroom city flat (about 452 sq ft) and presents as ready to occupy, while also offering scope for modest updating or reconfiguration to improve storage or flow.
Important practical points are straightforward: the flat is leasehold with a very long lease (c.963 years) and comes with a share of the freehold. It is ground-floor level, so front rooms receive more limited daylight than the rear and anyone sensitive to street-level access should note this. The building is solid-brick Victorian stock with assumed minimal wall insulation and double glazing of unknown age; buyers may wish to budget for thermal improvements or a survey of services and heating.
Position is a core selling point — short walk to Church Road and Portland Road shops, cafés and transport links, with the seafront and Hove station easily reachable. The size, garden and freehold share make this an appealing option for first-time buyers or buy-to-let purchasers seeking a central Hove base, but purchasers should allow for routine leasehold-related costs (for example, conveyancing and lease packs) and commission a full survey before purchase.
