Why you’ll like it:
Brimming with potential to add considerable value, this spacious two-bedroom first floor flat is one of two properties in a 1950s house, positioned on a quiet road in Hangleton skirting the South Downs National Park. While it sits at the edge of the Brighton & Hove, it is literally minutes from bus stops serving the city and both Hove and Portslade’s commuter stations are easy to access.
The main building is semi-detached with each flat enjoying its own street entrance. The property is set back behind a grassy front garden and border walls adding to the feeling of privacy. Entering into the entrance vestibule, there is a cupboard for coats and shoes to keep the flat clutter free.
Stairs rise to the main part of the flat where the sitting room faces west with ample space for comfortable furnishings and a dining table and chairs. The decoration is simple in shades of grey which will suit all modern styles, and an electric fire brings warmth and atmosphere during winter.
Across the hall, the kitchen has also been modernised with white units and an integrated oven and hob, leaving space for a tall fridge freezer and a washing machine. Likewise, the bathroom is in fine condition, but both rooms have the potential to add value with some renovation.
A fine size double, the principal room feels light and airy with space for a king size bed and several pieces of freestanding bedroom furnishings. Bedroom two is smaller, ideal as a child’s room or as a peaceful office for working from home on a daily or weekly basis.
Uniquely, this flat benefits from sole access to a rear garden access to the side of the house. While it is a little overgrown, it has huge potential for landscaping, planting and for dining alfresco in the summer. There are two brick built sheds.
This spacious apartment is situated in a popular area with fantastic transport links and The South Downs National Park nearby. The city centre shopping districts and beach are also within easy reach by foot, car or bus, and this house also offers easy access to the A23/A27 and two commuter stations which have direct and fast links to the universities, airports and London.
