Why you’ll like it:
Norfolk Square sits off Western Road and is characterised by beautiful Grade II listed Regency townhouses; the majority of which have since been converted into generous apartments. These three and four-storey homes enclose an area of green which has undergone a huge transformation in recent years to now include a community garden and a cafe.
This flat sits within a unique townhouse on the section of the square running south of the gardens and is formed within the top floor. The main house is set back form the road behind an immaculate front garden which creates a lovely place to come home to each day.
From the main entrance, stairs lead up to the second floor where this apartment is clearly numbered. Stepping inside, the eye is drawn first to the living room where natural light streams in through a wide sash window framing charming views of Regency Hove, with the sea visible through the chimney stacks. Inside, the decoration is fresh and neutral to suit all styles of furnishing and useful cabinetry is built-in to the alcoves for books and entertainment systems. There is ample space for relaxation and dining with the kitchen conveniently nearby.
Well-designed and more spacious than most kitchens in one-bedroom flats, this one offers a huge amount of storage at both base and eye levels and comes with some integrated appliances to include an oven and induction hob (please ask the agent when viewing the property for further details on these).
Peacefully positioned looking out to the rear of the building, the bedroom is a fine size double room with space for a king-bed and freestanding furniture without compromising on space. There is access to a fire escape balcony and the light is beautiful in the morning as the window faces east. Nearby, the bathroom is fresh in white with a shower over the bath.

Agent’s thoughts:
