Brimming with potential to add value with modernisation, this generous ground floor garden flat will be of huge interest to home seekers and investors alike. It is formed within a smart, purpose-built development which sits in a tree lined road leading down to the sea, so the location is fantastic for commuters and anyone looking to live the quintessential Hove lifestyle. Both bedrooms are substantial doubles, and the garden is west facing, ideal for summer evenings dining alfresco with friends.

While it is incredibly peaceful here, you remain well-connected to the city by bus, car or train with Portslade Station just five-minutes away on foot. Ideally positioned in West Hove, there are a plethora of shops and amenities nearby on both Portland and Boundary Roads, alongside the fashionable gastropubs of Poets Corner, and for families, the local schools are excellent. With so many winning qualities and with so much potential, this property is sure to be snapped up.

Why you’ll like it:

Perfectly in keeping with its 1930s neighbours, Rectory Close is an attractive, low-rise development sitting at the southern end of Glebe Villas, just minutes from the coast. It stands within the popular New Church Road district which links the boutique shops and restaurants of Church Road with the fantastic array of amenities on Boundary Road, and to the north you are bordered with fashionable Poets Corner - what’s not to love?

Set well back from the road by neat lawns, Rectory Close feels wonderfully private, and this apartment enjoys its own entrance to the side of the building. Stepping inside, it feels immediately spacious and naturally light due to wide picture windows along the westerly wall. You enter directly to the kitchen which is in fine condition with timeless Shaker units paired with practical laminate worktops. While some appliances are integrated, space and plumbing has been left for others and the space has been well-designed to provide a huge amount of storage.

Moving through the flat, it is clearly in need of modernisation in areas, but this will increase the value and aesthetic appeal of the property. Every room is of generous proportions, with ample space for formal dining in the living room and both bedrooms are roomy doubles with space for king size beds and freestanding wardrobes and chests of drawers. All windows are double glazed, so you can always ensure a well-rested night’s sleep. The bathroom nearby has a bath with shower over it – where again, there is lots of potential to add your own stamp on the place.

Outside, the garden is a tranquil oasis with tall trees on its borders and a westerly aspect, so you can sit out into the evening during summer to watch the sun go down. Set predominantly to lawn it is a safe place for children to play, and it is just the right size for summer barbecues and gatherings. For those with green fingers, there is scope for further landscaping to create flower beds for additional colour and scent, where plants will thrive due to the southerly and westerly aspect.
