Why you’ll like it:
The Athenaeum in Hove is a smart Mid-Century development named after the grand glass-house which was planned to stand in Palmeira Square during the early 19th Century. While the original Athenaeum was not a success – this apartment building has stood for over half a Century and is as immaculate now as it was then.
An entry phone system provides access to neat communal hallways where this apartment is found on the Second floor floor. The main door opens to a long corridor with wood flooring and fresh lemon walls providing a welcoming space to come home to. There is a deep cupboard for storing shoes, coats and household items, then the spacious kitchen is first to the right.
Uniquely, the kitchen is separate and has been well-designed for the keen cook with plenty of storage cupboards and space for a kitchen table if desired. While the oven and gas hob are integrated, space has been left for a tall fridge freezer and a washing machine, and the sink is positioned below the window so you can look out to the wildlife in the trees as you wash up.
Next door is the bathroom which has been modernised with stone effect wall and floor tiles in sandy tones with mosaic detailing. There is a rainfall shower over the contemporary bath suite plus wall mounted taps and attachments so you can bathe comfortably at either end. For toiletries, there are wide drawers in the vanity unit below the basin and a heated rail for towels.
Along the hallway, the living room is a fantastic size with a wide box bay window almost covering the westerly wall bringing in a glorious afternoon light.
This also provides the perfect spot for a formal dining table and chairs plus a door opens to the balcony with space for dining alfresco during the summer. This looks out over the attractive period homes of Salisbury Road which is lined with mature trees, making you feel a million miles from the city centre.
Both bedrooms are double with the principal bedroom also enjoying deep built-in wardrobes which maximise the floor space. Both have soft carpet underfoot and double glazing so you can always ensure a warm and restful night’s sleep.
Agent’s thoughts:
Ideal for sharers and rental investors, this property is both spacious and brilliantly located within the city.
