Why you’ll like it:
Sackville Gardens is one of the widest roads leading down to the sea in Central Hove, so it certainly has an air of grandeur. At the southern end you can see the concertina roofs of the city’s iconic beach huts in classic ‘Brighton Blue’ against the sea and skyscapes beyond, reminding you just how close to the coast this property is.
This apartment sits within a semi-detached house with a traditionally tiled path leading to the main door. Contemporary baton fencing and a manicured hedge screen the garden for this flat from the street and a gate provides access. This is a lovely private spot to sit outside in the summer months as it receives plenty of sunlight from the south. It is low maintenance with a shingle floor to echo the beach at the end of the road, leaving space for potted plants to create a lovely backdrop to the main reception room.
The front door opens to a neat communal hall where the door to flat number two is to the right. Stepping inside, you arrive into the open plan living room which feels deceptively spacious and gloriously light due to the wide bay window on the easterly wall. The decoration is immaculate with wood flooring and fresh white walls which brightens the space further, and there is ample space for relaxed seating and formal dining in the bay. A stud wall divides the kitchen area from the front door creating a short corridor with hooks for coats. The kitchen on the opposite side then feels nicely tucked away and has been well-designed with plenty of storage and space for a freestanding fridge freezer, a washing machine and a cooker – which may be negotiable with the sale.
Moving through the flat, the bedroom sits at the far end and is a standard double room with a built-in mirrored wardrobe which both maximises the floor space and allows the light to bounce around. It is incredibly peaceful and the view from the window is private looking out to the side return. Nearby, the bathroom is modern with a shower over the bath and a LED back-lit mirror above the basin.
Agent’s thoughts:
This is a really beautifully appointed flat which is ready to move straight into or let out immediately with ease. It is brilliantly located within Hove and will be a lovely first home for someone.
Owner’s secret
