John Hiltons are pleased to be able to offer as sole agent, with no onward chain and a secure underground parking space, this beautifully proportioned one bedroom first floor balcony apartment which forms part of this sought-after 1960s purpose-built development. The property boasts an enviable address close to Hove train station and is within easy walking distance of Hove seafront and an array of amenities. The property is considered to be in excellent order throughout with a large entrance lobby - sufficiently sized to offer a work from home area with two deep storage cupboards - a good sized lounge/dining room with wrap-around window and access onto the covered balcony, a large bedroom which overlooks the balcony and benefits from extensive wardrobes, alongside a kitchen/breakfast room, refitted shower room which accommodates those with mobility issues, and a separate WC. Subject to the necessary consents, this wonderful property also offers potential for adjustment by incorporating the large entrance lobby with the living space and creating a walk-in closet area to the bedroom.
