About this home
Guide Price: £450,000 - £500,000 Situated on one of Hove’s most desirable tree-lined avenues, just moments from the seafront, this beautifully presented two-bedroom apartment offers an attractive combination of period character, generous accommodation and contemporary finishes. Extending to approximately 806 sq. ft., the property features an impressive open-plan living space, two bedrooms, a modern bathroom and a separate shower room, all within a sought-after central Hove location. The accommodation is accessed via a welcoming entrance hallway, with decorative ceiling cornicing, attractive ceiling roses and a neutral colour scheme setting the tone for the rest of the property. One of the standout features is the spacious open-plan kitchen, living and dining room, measuring approximately 18'0" x 12'4". This charming room benefits from a beautiful bay window with traditional sash windows, allowing natural light to enter the space, while ornate ceiling detailing, exposed wooden floorboards and a feature fireplace provide plenty of character. The room comfortably accommodates both living and dining furniture, creating an inviting setting for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen is thoughtfully incorporated along one wall, featuring a range of contemporary white fitted units, complementary work surfaces, an integrated oven and hob, and ample cupboard and preparation space. The combination of modern kitchen fittings and original-style period features gives the room a distinctive character. The principal bedroom is particularly generous, measuring approximately 18'0" x 12'9", providing an impressive amount of space for bedroom furniture alongside additional seating or storage. Beautiful decorative cornicing, a ceiling rose and an ornate feature fireplace complement the room's proportions, while the neutral décor and soft carpeting create a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere. The second bedroom measures approximately 13'7" x 6'11" and offers versatile accommodation, currently arranged as a bedroom. This room also benefits from decorative ceiling detailing and a sash window, continuing the property's period character. The accommodation is completed by a modern bathroom featuring a curved bath with shower screen, contemporary wash basin with vanity storage, WC and chrome heated towel rail. A separate shower room provides additional convenience, fitted with a glazed shower enclosure, wash basin and WC, finished with attractive marble-effect wall and floor tiles. Throughout the apartment, the combination of generous room proportions, traditional architectural details and modern fittings creates a home that retains much of its original charm while offering the practical comforts of contemporary living.
