Set within an attractive period building, the property combines generous proportions and character features with a modern kitchen and bathroom, making it an excellent home for a Single occupant preferred or couple looking to enjoy everything Hove has to offer.
The main studio room is particularly impressive, measuring approximately 15'10" x 13'10" (4.82m x 4.22m) and providing plenty of space to create separate sleeping, living and dining areas.
High ceilings, decorative period detailing and a large bay window give the room a bright and spacious feel, while the neutral décor and dark wooden flooring provide an ideal blank canvas for incoming tenants to make the space their own.
Positioned separately from the main living area is the modern fitted kitchen, which measures approximately 10'8" x 7'3" (3.24m x 2.21m).
Finished in a contemporary style, the kitchen provides a good range of fitted wall and base units, ample worktop space and integrated appliances.

The property also benefits from a modern shower room, finished in a clean contemporary style with a shower enclosure, wash hand basin and WC.
Together with the separate kitchen, this creates a practical and well-designed layout which makes excellent use of the apartment's approximately 379 sq ft / 35.2 sq m of internal accommodation.
The apartment is offered unfurnished, giving tenants complete flexibility to furnish and arrange the generous studio room to suit their own requirements.
The combination of the impressive room proportions, high ceilings, period features and modern kitchen and bathroom makes this an attractive alternative to many of the smaller studio apartments available locally.
Situated on The Drive in central Hove, the property is ideally positioned for access to the wide range of shops, cafés, restaurants and amenities found throughout Hove, while also being conveniently located for transport connections and the seafront.
With its excellent central location, spacious accommodation and modern finish, early viewing is highly recommended.
