3 Bed Semi-Detached House, Refurb/BRRR, Hove, BN3 7QS £725,000

Beautifully designed to be an extension of the home, the garden feels private and green with a eucalyptus tree and evergreen shrubs providing a welcoming dappled shade on the lawn when the sun is high in the sky. The raised sun deck has lighting and electricity to be enjoyed well into the evening for summer suppers under the stars, with space for intimate family meals and larger gatherings.

Returning to the house, there are three double bedrooms on the first floor, all of which can house king and double beds alongside freestanding furnishings. The principal room to the front of the house benefits from a westerly aspect and a wide bay window, while bedroom two has access to the rear balcony terrace, ideally placed facing east to enjoy the weekend papers and coffee in the morning sunshine. They all have easy access to the family bathroom which has been modernised with a contemporary, fine-quality finish to include a freestanding bath for evening relaxation and a separate shower for reviving in the morning before work and school.

For larger families, the loft has space to convert and create two further bedrooms and a second bathroom if need be – certainly food for thought.

Vendor's Comments:

“We’ve been lucky to call home for nearly two decades. We moved to this peaceful corner of the neighbourhood in 2006, after previously owning a house in Frant Road (there was an overseas moving in between)! Since then, it’s been the backdrop to many wonderful memories, and now, it’s ready for its next chapter, our children have grown up and the only reason to move is to downsize and hand this great house to its next family to enjoy. This house has given us so much: security, joy, laughter, and love. It’s been a place to grow, gather, and enjoy as a family. We hope whoever moves in next will find just as much happiness here as we have.”
