Hanover is a superb place to live with its cheerful painted terraces rising from the heart of the city to Queen’s Park where trendy brunch spots, organic deli and weekly farmer’s market surround the leafy park and lake. This stylish and well looked after one bedroom apartment is just a stroll from each and is a great first buy or solid investment.

On the first floor with its own entrance, inside has 38.02m2 (409.24 sq. ft.) of bright and cheerful rooms which are ready to move into. A particular selling point is the inviting, spacious living room at 4.10m x 3.35 (13’5 x 10’11) with its fuss free white walls and original solid wood floor. A generous cupboard off the living room provides excellent storage.

There is a separate kitchen with a contemporary feel and at 2.5m x 2.33m (8’2 x 7’7) it is comfortable, efficiently planned and everything flows from the halogen hob and electric oven beneath a lit hood and a practical curved surface. Plumbing is in place for a washing machine, and there is designated space for both an undercounter fridge and freezer.

At the back the double bedroom isn’t overlooked, and the bathroom is at the far end of the apartment with two windows leaving it bright and airy. The current vendors have also recently upgraded the electrics in the property and have had a new boiler installed in 2019.

Agent’s thoughts:
“This fashionable area will appeal to students and professionals of all ages as it is within a stroll of the Open Market and vibrant North Laine as well as the cultural heart of the city, and it is also well- connected to Brighton’s shopping centre, Lewes and Gatwick.”

Owner’s secret:
“The apartment is easy to live in with lovely sun shining into the living room all day which makes it feel so bright. The street is quiet with friendly neighbours and is very convenient with local cafes and shops on the doorstep. The private entrance is a great addition that is not always available with a flat. Lastly, the access to the Brighton
seafront, City centre, South Downs and the train station feels very easy and gives such a range of options for days out."
