Compact, characterful seafront home with private courtyard and workspace.
Private west-facing courtyard accessed via large bi-folding doors
Separate dedicated home office with bespoke shelving and desk
Compact one-bedroom layout — approx 410 sq ft, modest room sizes
Lower-ground floor — limited ceiling height and lower natural light
Solid brick walls likely uninsulated; potential heat-loss and upgrade needs
Slow broadband speeds reported; not ideal for heavy remote tech use
Off-street parking in Zone N; currently no waiting list
High local crime rate noted; consider security measures
This neatly presented lower-ground flat offers coastal living in a compact, characterful package. A west-facing private courtyard and large bi-folding doors create a strong indoor–outdoor connection, while bespoke shelving and quality finishes give the interior personality and usable storage.
The accommodation suits a single person, couple, or investor seeking a low-maintenance pied-à-terre close to Hove promenade and Church Road amenities. A separate home office is included—useful for regular remote working—and the property is sold chain free with a share of freehold.
Be realistic about the trade-offs: the flat is small (approximately 410 sq ft) and lower-ground, so ceiling heights feel modest and natural light is limited compared with upper floors. The building dates from before 1900 with solid brick walls likely without cavity insulation, and double-glazing install dates are unknown. Broadband speeds are reported slow.
Practical advantages include mains gas central heating, off-street parking within Zone N (currently no waiting list), and proximity to transport and seafront. The location and existing short‑let track record may suit an investor, while first‑time buyers will appreciate chain-free sale and turn-key condition.
