This bay-fronted Victorian terraced house in Hove’s popular Poets Corner offers generous living space across three floors, blending period detail with modern comfort. At around 1,022 sq ft the layout delivers a bright through living/dining room, a substantial kitchen with separate utility, and two double bedrooms, making it a roomy first home or a comfortable downsize.
The property’s strengths include high ceilings, original features such as a working fireplace and shutters, double glazing, and a larger-than-average rear garden that receives morning and afternoon sun. There is clear potential to adapt or extend (subject to planning) for buyers wanting to add value or personalise the home. Good transport links, nearby shops and cafés on Church Road, and easy access to Hove station suit commuters and city lifestyle seekers.
Buyers should note a few practical points: the EPC is rated D, the building is solid brick with assumed no cavity insulation, and some internal modernisation or insulation upgrades may be desirable to improve energy performance. Parking is on-street in a residents’ zone and the plot is modest despite the generous garden. Overall this freehold townhouse is a well-located, characterful property with scope to enhance comfort and value.
