Arundel House is an instantly recognisable building in the heart of vibrant Hove and is believed to have been the city’s very first purpose-built apartment block. It was built in 1898 in a ‘Free Jacobean’ style from brick and terracotta, with its turrets, decorative chimneys and castellated tower making it a landmark building on this ever-popular road. The Drive is within the Willett Conservation Area, known for its fine Victorian properties. This exceptionally large apartment occupies a lower ground floor position and benefits from its own private entrance and a shared garden space. Internally it is bright and modern, having been renovated throughout in the last five years, and features a contemporary kitchen and shower room. The high ceilings and large windows on the south and west sides of the building afford good natural light, and the apartment is also fitted with an integrated airflow system for ventilation. The versatile layout offers plenty of space, with two rooms that could be used as bedrooms, a dressing room or study. The entrance hall opens to the bedroom, shower room, well-equipped kitchen. The kitchen leads to the sitting/dining room at the quiet rear of the apartment.
Outside
Parking is available locally on The Drive, permit required. The apartment benefits from access to a west-facing gravel courtyard, which acts as a real sun trap in the warmer months and a bike store that are shared with a neighbouring apartment. The building also benefits from a further communal garden.
Situation
The Drive is in a fantastically central location, with Hove Lawns and the seafront moments away and Church Road and its continuation, Western Road, offering an array of boutique shops, cafés, bars and restaurants plus a Tesco superstore, at the southern end of the road. Central Brighton, with more extensive shopping and Churchill Square, is easily accessible. Hove Station is 0.6 miles with fast direct trains to London and Gatwick.
