Quietly positioned on the leafy and secluded Lloyd Close, in the sought-after Hove Park area, this exceptional new build (2023) family home offers a wonderfully private setting, whilst remaining ideally placed for excellent schools, parks and recreation, with the amenities of central Hove also within easy reach.
Set back from the road and approached via electric gates, the house has been thoughtfully designed to complement the architectural character of its surroundings.
Lovingly created by the current owners, the accommodation has been carefully considered around modern family life, combining beautifully appointed interiors with generous entertaining spaces and a strong connection to the garden and eco living with its ten solar panels with a battery to store energy and air source heat pump quietly keeping bills lower as well as under floor heating on the ground and second floors.

Generously proportioned, the reception space comfortably accommodates a dining table, making it particularly well suited to entertaining and family gatherings, with a seamless connection to the garden beyond.
