This bright two-bedroom first-floor flat occupies the whole first floor of a handsome Victorian end-terrace, moments from Hove seafront. The apartment is presented in excellent decorative order, with high ceilings, three feature bay windows in the living room and generous room proportions that deliver a feeling of space uncommon at this price. At about 787 sq ft it offers comfortable living for first-time buyers, couples or professionals who want immediate move-in condition.
Practical benefits include a share of freehold, two separate entrances for flexibility, built-in bedroom storage and a modern kitchen/breakfast space big enough for casual dining. Broadband and mobile signal are strong here, and Hove Station, shops, cafés and schools are all within easy reach. The seafront is currently undergoing renovation works which aim to improve the immediate area further.
Buyers should note some material facts: the building is Victorian (pre-1900) with solid brick walls likely without modern cavity insulation, and the double glazing appears to be older (installed before 2002). There is a single bathroom plus a separate WC, and local crime levels are reported as high—factors to consider for buyers prioritising thermal efficiency or security. There is no flood risk recorded.
Overall this flat offers rare space and period character so close to the seafront, with ready-to-enjoy presentation and scope to improve energy performance over time. For someone seeking a well-located, characterful home with modest running costs and good transport links, it’s a compelling option—provided you factor in the building’s age-related maintenance and the local crime context.
