A bright two-double-bedroom first-floor flat with its own entrance and a long private rear garden, ideal for first-time buyers seeking outside space in Hove. The west-facing living room fills with afternoon light, and the modern fitted kitchen and contemporary bathroom mean the property is largely move-in ready. At around 745 sq ft the layout is generous for a flat of this age, providing room for wardrobes and a comfortable dining area.
Practical running costs are clear: service charge £384 pa and ground rent £10, and the lease has 88 years remaining — buyers should factor in leasehold considerations and the potential cost of an extension. The property sits in a post-war end-terrace block (built 1950–66) with double glazing and a gas central heating system served by a boiler and radiators.
Location is a major draw: local shops, regular buses, and Portslade station within a 15-minute walk for links to Brighton and London. The flat is close to several well-rated primary and secondary schools and offers easy access to the South Downs and seafront amenities. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent.
Notable local context: the wider area is classified as having higher deprivation and the neighbourhood records average crime levels, which may influence resale or lettability for some buyers. There is no flood risk. Prospective purchasers should verify council tax details and check lease-extension options with a solicitor before committing.
