Why you’ll like it:

The streets around Hove Station have retained their popularity and value for many years now as they are not only ideal for commuters, but also for easy access to the centre of Hove and some of the cleanest beaches along the coast.
This generous studio apartment is formed from the raised ground floor of a Victorian villa, so it feels perfectly private being set back from the road behind neat shrub borders and a front garden. A traditionally tiled path paves the way to the front door which opens to a communal hallway with the door to this apartment clearly numbered.

Stepping inside, the ceiling in the main studio room is wonderfully high, adorned with the original plasterwork cornicing of the era. A full height triple bay sash window almost covers the westerly wall to bring in a glorious light during the afternoon, yet the outlook is private as the flat is slightly elevated from the road with frosting on the lower panes. Smart and neutral, the flat is ready to be dressed in modern furnishings with cream carpet and buttermilk walls. There are clearly defined areas for seating, dining and sleeping without compromising on space, and the kitchen is open plan. Due to the scale of the room, plenty of kitchen storage has been added, alongside and integrated oven and hob, leaving space for a fridge and a washing machine. It would be possible to modernise in here for very little while adding considerable value and style to the space.

Nicely separate, the bathroom is classically tiled in navy and white around a corner shower cubicle. Once more, it would be possible to modernise to put your own stamp on the place and add value, making this property a very sound investment.

This sunny studio flat is beautifully situated in a popular area with lots of local shops and the beach on your doorstep. The city centre shopping districts and parks are also within easy reach, and this house also offers easy access to Hove Station and the bypass which has direct and fast links to the airports and London.
