Fantastic opportunity to buy a two/three bedroom house in Hove, arranged over three storeys with a gorgeous south-facing garden.

This Victorian three-bedroom house in Livingstone Road is currently arranged as a two bedroom house with a living room on the ground floor, and a further living room/kitchen on the lower ground floor. The current living room could be used as a third bedroom, as the reception space on the lower ground floor is welcoming and spacious, opening onto the garden, and quite possibly where you will spend most of your time.

The front door opens to a hallway with a living room to your right, this room has a working open fireplace, with a cast-iron insert and a wood surround and mantlepiece. The floors have been stripped and polished, and the current owner has added a beautiful marquetry-style feature to the floors. The window frames and panelling underneath them have also been stripped. Also on the ground floor, there is a generous bathroom, designed with period-style fittings, in keeping with the age of the property. There is a freestanding bath and a Heritage handbasin, as well as a walk-in shower.

On the lower ground floor, the kitchen is at the front of the house and has an island with a breakfast bar. The counters and sink are in Corian “beached glass”, and the splashbacks are mini-metro tiles. There is a gas oven and grill, and a gas hob; the dishwasher is integrated and there is also space and plumbing for a washing machine. A tiled floor provides continuity throughout this downstairs space, which includes a living area at the rear, with double doors onto the wonderful garden. Outside there is a decked terrace which leads to a blue wisteria arch, framing the path of gravel and railway sleepers, which leads down the garden. There is also a lilac tree and a white wisteria on the fence. At the back of the garden is a greenhouse shed. The boiler is located in a cupboard on the lower ground floor and the house also has a large insulated loft.

Livingstone Road is a residential street of Victorian terraces, in Poet’s Corner, Hove. The property is only a three minute walk from Hove Station, so absolutely perfect for anyone who uses the train regularly. Or you can pick up the No. 7 or No. 21 bus on Goldstone Villas. There is a strong community feel, which is enhanced by all the local shops and pubs. On Portland Road, Blatchington Road and on Goldstone Villas there is a wide choice of shops, cafés and bars. Families with young children are close to the popular Hove Junior School on Portland Road and the house is also in the catchment area for both Hove Park and Blatchington Mill secondary schools. There are three parks within easy reach - Hove Park to the north, St Ann’s Well Gardens to the east, and Stoneham Park, just around the corner from Hove Junior school. George Street, which is Hove’s high street, is five minutes away and there is also a Co-op and a Sainsbury’s local on Portland Road, a Tesco Express on Denmark Villas and the large Tesco on Church Road.
