About
Situated in the heart of Hove, this attractive ground-floor apartment forms part of an elegant Victorian property and combines generous room proportions, period character and a private rear garden.
A welcoming entrance hallway leads through to accommodation extending to approximately 646 sq ft (60 sq m).
Positioned at the front is an impressive west-facing living room measuring approximately 16’11 x 14’6.
High ceilings and a feature fireplace add period appeal, while the large bay window fills the room with afternoon and evening light.
The separate kitchen, newly fitted within the last five years, has stylish fitted cabinetry, attractive wood block worktops and space for the usual appliances. A new boiler was installed in July 2023.
At the rear of the apartment is the particularly spacious principal bedroom, measuring approximately 17’3 x 13’1.
This comfortable room features a large bay window overlooking the garden and offers ample space for freestanding furniture.
The second bedroom is also positioned towards the rear and would work equally well as a guest bedroom, nursery or dedicated home office.
The bathroom/WC, also newly fitted within the last five years, benefits from underfloor heating.
Outside, the property benefits from a private east-facing rear garden, approached via a communal side pathway.
Established planting creates an attractive and secluded setting, while a brick block seating area provides space for relaxing, dining and entertaining.
Selborne Road occupies a highly desirable central Hove location, just off Church Road and within easy reach of its excellent selection of independent shops, cafés, bars and restaurants.
Hove seafront is also close at hand, while Hove station and frequent local bus services provide convenient connections into Brighton, London and the surrounding areas.
Offered with a share of the freehold, this characterful and well-proportioned home would make an excellent first purchase, comfortable permanent residence or conveniently located second home.
Its combination of period features, two bedrooms and valuable private outside space makes it an especially appealing purchase in Hove.
