Quietly tucked into a Victorian terrace on Hove’s seafront, this immaculately presented two double-bedroom lower-ground apartment balances period charm with modern comfort. High ceilings and a large bay bring light into the principal living space, which includes a working nook and separate dining area — ideal for those who work from home and entertain. Two outdoor spaces (front and rear) add rare private outdoor access for a seafront home.
Bedrooms sit to the rear for peace and privacy. The principal bedroom includes a walk-in dressing area and access to a Jack-and-Jill bathroom; the second bedroom benefits from its own en-suite shower and direct courtyard access. The kitchen is well-sized with good storage, and internal storage cupboards plus an external bike/storage cupboard add practical value.
Important practical points are clear: the flat is a lower-ground (basement) apartment within a Victorian building with solid brick walls and assumed no cavity insulation, and broadband speeds in the area are reported slow. The lease has around 88 years remaining and the tenure is share of freehold — attractive for long-term owners but something to review early in any purchase process.
Overall this is a rare seafront opportunity for a buyer seeking a ready-to-move-in home with strong location appeal. It will suit first-time buyers or couples wanting immediate access to Hove’s promenade, local shops and cafés, with the potential to add value through targeted improvements to insulation and connectivity.
