Why you’ll like it:
With its own community group Four Streets in Hove, this area has a welcoming atmosphere and is home to a friendly mix of families and professionals looking to live in a peaceful location but with access to the delights of Central Hove. This flat is formed from the entire ground floor of a Victorian terrace on Brooker Street, giving it a sunny east to west aspect and sole use of a west facing rear patio garden.

Set back from the road behind a leafy front garden, a zesty yellow front door opens to the communal ways shared by just one other property. Inside, the hallway bends to the right giving space to organise shoes and hang coats, before entering the living room to the front of the building. In here, the ceiling is high with cornicing and a picture rail wending round the perimeter, with tall walls painted white paired with quality laminate flooring. There is ample space for comfortable furnishings and for a dining table and chairs in the bay, looking out to the peaceful street.

Next door, the bedroom mirrors the living room, looking out to the private garden. The décor is smart and neutral, and the alcoves have been cleverly utilised for clothes storage. Even with a king size bed, the floor space is not compromised, and double glazing ensures a warm and tranquil night.

Moving through the flat, the kitchen has a monochrome scheme in a modern-country style for timeless appeal. While the oven and gas hob are integrated, space has been left for a washing machine, dishwasher and fridge, alongside ample storage and workspace for the keen cook. Nearby, the shower room is streamlined and modern, while the study at the end of the hall completes the apartment – ideal for anyone looking to work from home on a daily or weekly basis.

Outside, the garden is perfectly low maintenance with space for barbecues and gatherings. A large shed will stay, ideal for storage or as a work space – and smaller vehicles can be brought in via double gates for secure parking accessible from Brooker Place.

This Victorian conversion flat is wonderfully light, airy and deceptively spacious, 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 home also offers easy access to the A27/A23 as well as Hove Station with its regular, fast links to the airports and London.
