Guide Price £1,300,000 to £1,400,000....A substantial detached family home, positioned on one of Hove’s most desirable tree-lined roads, just a short distance from Hove Park and the Three Cornered Copse.

The principal bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes and access to a modern Jack and Jill shower room, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a contemporary family bathroom with both bath and separate shower cubicle. The layout works extremely well for a family, with generous room sizes and good natural light throughout.

Outside, the west-facing rear garden is a particularly special feature.

The garden enjoys a private and leafy outlook, with a gate leading directly towards the Three Cornered Copse. There is also a charming Swiss-style garden cabin, providing a peaceful retreat, play space or garden escape, along with a former wartime bomb shelter tucked away at the rear, now offering useful storage or potential for alternative use.
