Why you’ll like it:
Set back from the road standing five storeys high, the grand Victorian homes of Albany Villas are impressive on the approach. This building has been particularly well-maintained, being careful to retain its beautiful architectural features and fresh white façade. Glossy black railings and a gate allow access to the garden of this flat which feel nicely private from the road. Offering a magical and sun-drenched spot to sit out, surrounded by greenery on the patio which has an open southerly and westerly aspect. Steps lead down to this flat’s own street entrance where there is a cupboard for coats, then a second door directly to the beautiful living room and dining area looking out over the front garden.

It is clearly a beautifully maintained home filled with natural light due to the wide bay sash window almost covering the westerly elevation. This ensures the space does not feel lower ground in the slightest, and the views are simply joyful, with leafy verdant plants and flowers to fill your vision, ever changing with the seasons.

Inside, there is ample space for relaxation or dining in the bay, while the kitchen is streamlined, running along a recessed area at the rear of the room so as not to dominate the space. It offers generous storage and integrated appliances, with the washing machine neatly tucked away in a separate utility area opposite the shower room.

The bedroom is a fantastic size with space for a king bed and freestanding furnishings, with the shower room next door feeling like an en suite. This is beautifully tiled in natural stone tones with a spacious cubicle and ample storage for toiletries below the basin and LED lit mirror.

This superb garden flat is 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 home also offers easy access to Hove Station which has direct and fast links to the airports and London.
