Property description & features

  • Tenure: Share of freehold
Copthorne Court sits on a grand tree-lined avenue in Central Hove, within walking distance of both Hove Station and the beach. Elevated on the second floor, just minutes from both Western Road and Church Road’s vibrant mix of shops, bars and restaurants, this well-presented two-bedroom apartment is ideally located for the quintessential Brighton & Hove lifestyle by the sea. It has generous room proportions, and a smart, neutral décor so you can move straight in with ease. The views are lush and green through each of its wide picture windows and can be enjoyed from the private balcony which has access from both the living room and the principal bedroom. It also boasts an on-site parking space – a huge bonus as parking comes at a premium in this part of the city. Being so well located with two double bedrooms, this property would suit commuters, families, investors and professional sharers alike.

The Drive is a grand avenue linking Hove Recreation Ground to Hove’s lush green seafront Lawns and Promenade. It is characterised by Victorian mansions and purpose-built apartment buildings offering a luxury lifestyle in this vibrant coastal city.

This property comes with parking and its clean Mid-Century lines are softened by mature trees lining the roads and the grounds. A secure entry phone system provides access to the well-maintained communal ways where a lift or stairs take you to the second floor. The benefit of purpose-built properties – particularly those built during the middle of the 20th Century, is their incredible proportions and natural light due to a generous amount of glazing. This is evident when you enter this flat as each room has a wall of windows framing leafy views, bringing some of the outside in.

Within the living room, there is ample space for formal dining and relaxing on comfortable furnishings. A teal wall adds a pop of colour, picking up the natural green hues from outside, where you can spill out to the balcony during summer. Nearby, the kitchen comes well-equipped with a vast amount of storage and integrated ovens and a gas hob, leaving space for a dishwasher, washing machine and a tall fridge freezer. It would be possible to modernise in here to add considerable value to this property.

While bedroom two is currently set up as a home office and a nursery, it is a fine size double room ideal for sharers. The principal bedroom is larger still with a wall of built-in wardrobes to maximise the floor space, and it also boasts access to the balcony – perfect for your morning coffee at the weekend when there’s no rush.

Both bedrooms have easy access to the bathroom across the hall which is on trend with white brick tiling and a shower over the bath. The WC is separate next door, so once again, it would be possible to add value by knocking these rooms through to create a larger, modern bathroom with a bath and separate shower. All food for thought.

This modern flat is situated in a popular area with lots of local shops and the beach on your doorstep. The city centre shopping districts and the parks are within easy reach, and this bright apartment also offers easy access to the A23/A27 as well as Hove Station with its regular, fast links to the airports and London.
