One‑bed Victorian conversion with a full‑size west garden and separate studio — ideal for first‑time buyers.
West‑facing full‑size private garden with studio/garden room
Bay‑fronted lounge/diner with working feature fireplace
Private gated side entrance and communal access
One double bedroom with walk‑in wardrobe
Extended lease (171 years) and no onward chain
Lower‑ground floor — reduced natural light compared with upper floors
Small separate kitchen; potential need for upgrade
Local area records higher-than-average crime levels
A rare one‑bedroom lower‑ground period conversion with a private entrance and an unexpectedly large west‑facing garden. The bay‑fronted lounge/diner retains a working feature fireplace and opens directly onto outdoor space, while a separate studio/garden room provides useful home‑office or hobby space. The flat is sold with an extended lease (171 years) and no onward chain, simplifying purchase for a first‑time buyer.
The layout is compact and efficient: double bedroom with walk‑in wardrobe, shower room and a separate small kitchen. High ceilings and period proportions give a feeling of space despite the lower‑ground position. The rear garden is a standout asset — full size, sunny from lunchtime into the evening, fully enclosed and with side access for bikes or boards.
Buyers should note this is a lower‑ground home so natural light can be more limited than upper floors. The kitchen is small and the building is an older solid‑brick structure likely without modern cavity insulation, so heating costs and draftiness could be factors. The local area records higher crime levels than average and the property is in a busy central Hove location close to Church Road and Hove station.
Overall this is a characterful, well‑located flat that suits a first‑time buyer wanting outdoor space and a separate studio, or an investor seeking strong rental appeal close to amenities and transport. Practical improvements — a kitchen upgrade and targeted insulation or heating tweaks — would increase comfort and market value.
