This double-fronted Victorian house on Walsingham Road offers a rare family-sized home just off Hove seafront. Over 2,000 sq ft across three main storeys, the house retains high ceilings, original fireplaces, cornicing and large bay windows that give the principal rooms generous proportions and strong period character. The mature, landscaped rear garden is private and well-sized for family use, with patios, lawn and useful external stores.
The layout currently provides four large double bedrooms, two bathrooms and flexible reception space, and the upper floors have scope to be reconfigured — plans show the potential for five bedrooms and four bathrooms. Many neighbouring properties have extended ground floors, so further enlargement is possible (subject to planning). A newly refurbished family bathroom sits alongside older fittings elsewhere, so buyers can move in and update progressively.
Notable practical points are clear: the mid‑terrace solid brick construction likely lacks wall insulation, double glazing installation date is unknown, and the property will benefit from modernisation in places. Council tax is described as quite expensive. The house has been a well‑maintained family home for over 40 years and is offered freehold with no onward chain, making it straightforward to exchange and start renovation works.
Positioned on a wide, tree‑lined street moments from the seafront, the address gives easy access to cafés, restaurants and well‑regarded schools, plus fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. This is a characterful, substantial family home for buyers seeking period detail, generous outside space and clear scope to personalise and increase accommodation.
