EXCEPTIONAL TWO BEDROOM APARTMENT WITH BALCONY IN ICONIC GRADE II LISTED VICTORIAN PROPERTY CLOSE TO CHURCH ROAD & HOVE STATION



Sitting on the first floor of an elegant 1880s period building, just a short walk from both the seafront and bustling cafe culture of Church Road, this stunning triple aspect apartment is ideally placed for all that Brighton & Hove has to offer



Set in a distinctive Victorian building, a soft heritage colour scheme, original period detailing and generous proportions are just a few of the features that remind you of the grandeur of this Hove home, whilst contemporary interior design features accommodate today's modern lifestyle.



From the grand black door and arched doorway of the buildings entrance with its Victorian detailing and columns to the ornate communal staircase, this property is impeccably presented. Tall ceilings, intricate period architraves and wide bay windows balance with the modern kitchen and tasteful heritage-style bathroom to create the perfect example of life in a period property.

Beautifully lit by tall windows and French doors, the spacious main reception room provides an instant wow factor that's hard to ignore. Encompassed by elegant architraves, the high ceilings add to the superb sense of space, while a distinguished fireplace adds a traditional focal point and complements the soft taupe tones of the room. Creating ample space to relax and entertain, the French doors open onto a west-facing balcony perfectly extending this sociable and versatile space still further.

The lovely flow of natural light and graceful period cornicing continues in the adjacent fully-fitted kitchen with its wealth of modern cabinets. Well-appointed with an integrated Smeg oven and gas hob, the stylish grey countertops wrap around to offer ample workspace, while encaustic patterned tiles create a charming splashback.

The discerning interior design scheme in the large master bedroom echoes the main reception room offering a beautifully calm and peaceful feel. Natural light tumbles in from the wide sash bay windows highlighting the superb amount of space that this room enjoys, and its deep raised step creates the perfect spot for a chaise longue.

Continuing the beautiful presentation that flows throughout this Hove home, the second double bedroom with its south-facing sash bay windows offers plenty of versatility as a formal dining room, study, or simply as a quiet retreat from the hubbub of daily life. Generously proportioned and offering yet more period features, the chic fitted cabinets, shelving and wardrobes of this impressive room provide plenty of storage.

Arranged in a classic monochrome tile design and adding a luxurious finishing touch to this first floor home, the well-proportioned family bathroom features an eye-catching roll-top bath complete with claw feet and telephone taps, while its separate walk-in shower adds a contemporary twist to this refined setting. Subject to the correct consents, there is potential to rearrange the layout of this family bathroom to incorporate a well-sized en suite for the master bedroom.



When it comes to shops, bars and restaurants the hubbub of Church road, George Street and Blatchington Road all offer plenty of choice surrounded iconic period architecture.



Hove Lawns, Palmeria Square and Adelaide Crescent offer plenty of green open spaces to relax in, while the beach and seafront is never far away. For cricket fans the County ground is found just moments away on Eaton Road.
