Raised private rear garden—rare for Hanover
This Victorian family home in Hanover offers a flexible 3–4 bedroom layout across multiple floors, ideal for growing families who value character and practical living. The lower-ground open-plan kitchen, dining and living area provides a bright, social hub with direct access to a raised private rear garden — a rare feature in this neighbourhood. The contemporary kitchen, hardwood floors and modern bathroom fittings combine period charm with modern convenience.
Upstairs, two generous double bedrooms retain original proportions and decorative features, while the top-floor loft conversion forms a peaceful master suite with panoramic views towards the sea and the South Downs plus an en-suite shower. The elevated front reception room, sash window and original cornicing add period character and flexible living options for a home office or extra bedroom.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, affordable council tax, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for home working. The property sits close to primary and secondary schools, parks, independent shops, pubs and Brighton station for fast links to London. Hanover’s community feel and colourful streets make this a sought-after city location.
Notable considerations: the house is spread over multiple levels, which may be unsuitable for limited mobility and could require carrying pushchairs or heavy shopping. Overall size and plot are described as small, so storage and exterior space are limited compared with larger family homes. Buyers should view to assess room sizes and the raised garden’s steep access steps.
