Why you’ll like it:

Wilbury Road runs north from the main thoroughfare of Church Road, so it is perfectly positioned to access Hove’s clean beaches and the cultural and social centres of both halves of this vibrant coastal city. This property sits within a particularly attractive house with a grand portico entrance on the raised ground floor up some traditionally tiled steps. When the house was built in the late 19th Century, it would have been just one dwelling, but it has since been converted into apartments such as this one which continue to demand the same air of grandeur.

From the moment you step in through the communal front door, the scale and beauty of the building becomes apparent. It is clearly well-maintained with beautiful period features rising up the turning staircase to your floor.

Stepping inside you are greeted into the entrance hall with a deep cupboard at one end for housing coats, shoes and household items to ensure the flat remains clutter free. Your eye is immediately drawn to the living room to the left as natural light streams in through dual aspect windows. This sunny room has space for comfortable furnishings and a small dining table if need be, plus the neutral creams and fawn decoration will suit all styles.

Nearby, up a few steps, the kitchen sits to the rear of the building looking out over the neighbouring gardens and mature trees. It has been well-designed for the space with a range of units in pale-grey alongside an integrated oven and hob, leaving space for a washing machine.
The bedroom shares the same sunny aspect as the living room and is a sweet double room with built-in wardrobes to maximise the floor space. Opposite, the bathroom is fresh in white with a shower over the bath, so you can add your own pop of colour with toiletries and towels.

This sunny apartment is perfectly situated in a popular area with lots of local shops and the beach on your doorstep. The city centre shopping districts and parks are also within easy reach, and it also offers easy access to Hove Station and the A27/A23 which have direct and fast links to the airports and London.
