Westbourne Villas is one of the widest roads leading down to the sea in Central Hove, giving it an air of grandeur. The beaches of Hove are among the cleanest on the South Coast, offering space for summer picnics, sea swimming and exercise space for local residents.

Stepping inside, the flat feels bright and airy with your eye immediately drawn to the living room spanning the front of the house with a wide bay window stretching up to the high ceiling bringing in plenty of natural light from the east. Many original features have been retained within the deep skirting boards, picture rails and cornicing, while the decoration is fresh and airy with white walls and new dove-grey carpet. There is ample space in here for relaxed seating and formal dining, or indeed, working from home.

This modern, neutral decoration flows through the property into both double bedrooms, one sitting centrally to the flat with garden views and the second to the rear of the flat with direct garden access. Both rooms are great sizes for professional sharers or those looking for a peaceful home office. Both bedrooms have easy access to the bathroom which has been modernised with a gleaming white bath suite lined with marbled white and grey wall panels.

Streamlined and stylish, the kitchen has been well-designed with handle-free cabinetry in white, paired with solid oak worktops and patterned vinyl flooring bringing both form and function to the space. Some appliances have been integrated, leaving space for others, and grey brick-tile splashbacks complete the scheme.

Outside, the garden is joyful with an area of lawn and a decked space for drinks and dining alfresco. The borders are fragrant and mature with neighbouring trees providing privacy and dappled shade from the westerly sunshine. The garden receives the sun until it sets late in the summer, ideal for balmy summer evenings with friends.

Vendor’s Comments:

“This is a great home or investment. The location is ideal for spending a lot of time at the beach throughout the seasons, and you can access so much on foot that you rarely need to use the car. The neighbours and the local community are also fantastic, so we are sad to let it go.”
