This top-floor one-bedroom apartment in Gwydyr Mansions offers a compact, move-in-ready base in central Hove, ideal for first-time buyers or city professionals seeking seaside proximity. Recently renovated throughout, the flat combines period character—high ceilings and sash windows—with a modern kitchenette and refreshed bathroom. It’s sold chain free and comes with lift access and a share in the freehold.
At about 423 sq ft, the layout is efficient rather than spacious: a bright west-facing living room and a double bedroom make the most of afternoon light. The building sits opposite Palmeira Square and is roughly 0.3 miles from the seafront, with good local amenities, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Hove Station is within easy reach for commuting.
Buyers should note practical running costs and fabric details: the service charge averages £3,000 pa and the property has double glazing installed before 2002. The building’s original timber frame is recorded as having no added insulation (assumed), so heating costs could be higher than in modern constructions despite mains gas central heating. Overall, this is a stylish, low-maintenance flat in a desirable location, suitable for a first home or a rental investment if you accept a compact footprint and ongoing service costs.
