2 bedroom flat for sale

Elevated on the second floor of a substantial Victorian townhouse, just 3-minutes on foot from Hove Station, this generous two-bedroom apartment is brilliantly located in the city. It has been well-maintained and modernised by the current owner who has been careful to retain many of the original features. The space has been sensitively converted, ensuring the rooms are well-proportioned and naturally light with ample space for relaxation, family time and entertaining. It also boasts a sizable communal garden to the rear – large enough for residents to share without feeling on top of one another.

Transport links by bus and road are also excellent, as are the local schools, plus the beach and shops of both Blatchington and Church Roads are a mere stroll away. Indeed, there is no better place to truly experience the Brighton & Hove lifestyle than here.

Cromwell Road joins Davigdor Road to link Hove Station with Seven Dials, so this apartment could not be in a better location for those wishing to live the quintessential city lifestyle by the sea. The transport links by train, bus or car are excellent, yet you can walk or cycle everywhere too. While you are incredibly central in the city, the streets are tree-lined, so you are surrounded by greenery, and as you rise to this apartment on the second floor, the views across the local landscape are far-reaching and open, allowing for plenty of natural light to stream in.

This apartment sits within a substantial, pale gault-brick Victorian townhouse which feels grand on the approach. You enter the communal hallway where your door is clearly numbered up two sweeping staircases. This opens to an entrance hall where the eye is drawn first to the living room to the front of the property. In here, a deep bay window almost covers the southerly elevation creating a light and airy space, while pale cream carpet and calico walls serve to brighten the space further. Classic cornicing, skirtings and sashes add period character to the room which is a great size for both a corner sofa, armchairs and a dining table which fits perfectly within the bay.

Conveniently adjoining, the kitchen is another generous space which affords a kitchen table for informal dining occasions. Streamlined cabinets in charcoal wood veneer run along two walls providing a wealth of storage amongst integrated appliances which include an oven, hob, fridge freezer and a dishwasher, leaving space for a washing machine.

Sitting centrally to the flat, bedroom two has space for a small double bed and freestanding furnishings. The smart, neutral decoration continues in here to suit all styles and the views from the window are private. The first contemporary shower room is next door, so it feels like an en suite, but is easy to access for visitors.

The principal bedroom is also peacefully positioned to the rear of the building looking out over the green of the rear garden. It is particularly spacious with a wall of built-in wardrobes which maximise the floor space. The en suite bathroom has the same chic décor as the shower room, but has a bathtub with a shower over it, so you can relax after a long week.

Outside, the garden is set to lawn with leafy borders. While it is technically north facing, it is also open to the east and west, so it receives plenty of sunshine during summer.

This attractive second floor flat is perfectly situated in a popular area with lots of local shops and the beach nearby. The city centre shopping districts and parks are also within easy reach, and this apartment also offers easy access to Hove Station which has direct and fast links to the airports and London.
