Summary - St Aubyns, Hove BN3 2TH
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Characterful two-bedroom flat with private garden and long lease near sea and station.
Raised ground-floor two-bedroom apartment with period features
This raised ground-floor two-bedroom apartment combines genuine period character with straightforward modern updates, making it an appealing option for first-time buyers wanting space and a private garden in central Hove. The large living room features high ceilings, a bay window and an original fireplace that give immediate kerb appeal and plenty of natural light.
The apartment has practical, low-maintenance strengths: a modern kitchen and shower room, an east-facing private garden, share of freehold and an exceptionally long lease (approx. 900 years). Its location is a strong draw — a short walk to Hove station, the seafront and local shops, cafés and restaurants.
Be clear about the practical limitations: broadband speeds in the area are slow and the building’s solid brick walls likely lack insulation, which can increase heating costs unless upgraded. The building is self-managed; while this can keep costs down, it also places day-to-day upkeep responsibility on residents. Service charge is about £1,764 annually (c. £147/month).
Overall this is a well-presented, characterful flat that suits buyers seeking central location, garden access and long-term ownership security. It offers scope for simple energy-efficiency improvements and connectivity upgrades, which will add comfort and value over time.
