About this home
KNIGHT & KNOXLEY are delighted to present this beautifully positioned one-bedroom apartment within Amberley Court, an impressive Victorian mansion on Second Avenue in central Hove.
Occupying an upper floor and extending to approximately 506 sq. ft, the apartment combines generous proportions with excellent natural light and a wonderful outlook towards the sea. The building itself makes an immediate impression, with its handsome yellow-brick façade, grand arched entrance, patterned tiled steps and an elegant communal hallway retaining decorative flooring, stained glass and an ornate staircase.
Inside, the principal living space is particularly appealing. Measuring over 20ft at its widest point, the open-plan kitchen, dining and reception room is a bright, sociable space with high ceilings, deep cornicing and a broad bay window wrapping around the front of the room. From here, there are views towards the seafront and an abundance of natural light throughout the day.
There is ample space for a generous seating arrangement, dining table and a dedicated home-working area, while the kitchen sits neatly along one side of the room. Finished with white shaker-style cabinetry, timber worktops and white metro tiling, it includes an integrated oven, hob, extractor and useful storage, creating a practical layout without interrupting the scale of the room.
The bedroom is a comfortable double, quietly positioned away from the main living space, with room for freestanding wardrobes and additional furniture. The bathroom is also generously sized and includes a bath with overhead shower, traditional pedestal basin and useful shelving.
Amberley Court further benefits from access to a substantial communal garden to the rear. A rare feature in such a central location, the garden offers a mixture of lawn, mature planting and paved seating areas, providing a peaceful shared outdoor space just moments from the centre of Hove.
Second Avenue is one of the city's most desirable addresses, linking Church Road with Hove Lawns and the seafront. The beach is only around 100 metres away, making morning swims, evening walks and weekends on the promenade part of everyday life. Church Road is equally close, with its excellent selection of independent shops, cafés, pubs and restaurants.
Along the seafront, you'll find local favourites including Franco's Osteria, Sugardough Bakery, and the much-loved Marrocco's for handmade Italian ice cream. Hove's County Cricket Ground hosts summer matches, music events and open-air cinema, while green spaces such as Palmeira Square and Adelaide Crescent offer peaceful spots to relax.
Hove Station provides direct rail connections to London and Gatwick, with regular bus routes running along the coast and into Brighton city centre. Highly regarded local schools include Hove Junior, Brunswick Primary and St Andrew's C of E Primary.
Offered for sale with no onward chain, this is a bright and characterful apartment in a landmark period building, with sea views, generous living space and access to an impressive communal garden.
