Summary - BELL MEAD 12 HOLLAND ROAD HOVE BN3 1JQ
1 bed 1 bath Retirement Property
Ready-to-live retirement flat with parking, long lease and sea views — sold at modern auction.
Newly renovated one-bedroom retirement apartment, move-in ready
A bright, newly renovated one-bedroom apartment in Bell Mead, set in a popular retirement block on Holland Road. The open-plan living/kitchen has floor-to-ceiling glazing that floods the room with light and offers views down towards the sea. A designated off-street parking space adds notable convenience for visitors or part-time car owners.
This flat is sold chain free with an exceptionally long lease (998 years) — a strong practical advantage for buyers seeking security and low long-term lease costs. The accommodation is modern throughout and ready to move into, making it suitable for someone downsizing who wants minimal immediate work.
Practical points to note: heating is by electric storage heaters and the annual service charge is around £3,168. The sale is a probate matter and the property will be offered by Modern Auction, so buyers should allow for auction timescales, an undisclosed reserve price, and additional buyer fees (reservation fee and pack costs). Prospective purchasers should carry out their own checks and factor these costs into any offer.
Overall, this apartment suits a retirement or downsizing buyer looking for a low-maintenance, well‑located home near Hove’s amenities and the seafront. The long lease, off‑street parking and immediate move‑in condition are clear positives; the auction process and electric heating are the main practical considerations.
