Lorna Road, Hove

Lorna Road is tucked away just off Cromwell Road in Hove. There is no through traffic on the street, which is lined with attractive period properties. This charming one-bedroom flat has its own front gate and steps down through the front garden to its own entrance. The front door opens onto a hallway which has lovely light décor and new wood-effect flooring. As the hall turns towards the back of the flat there is an elegant curved wall which adds character to the space, and an arch which leads towards the kitchen. At the front of the flat is a large living room with a grand marble fireplace surround and a bay comprised of three tall sash windows. In addition to the seating area, this room is plenty big enough to accommodate a work-from-home space. The wood-effect floor, which began in the hall, runs into the living room too, as well as the kitchen, giving a wonderful continuity to the space. The brand-new Wren kitchen has deep blue units that are finished off with brass fittings and there is a gorgeous ceramic Belfast sink. All the appliances are new and still under guarantee. These include a gas hob with an extractor hood, an electric cooker, an integrated AEG slimline dishwasher, and an integrated Zanussi fridge-freezer. There is space and plumbing for a washing machine. The splashbacks are white metro tiles. The kitchen has a window and a glazed door which both overlook a small decked area, with steps leading up to the main garden. At the back of the property overlooking the garden is the double bedroom which has windows to the back and side and finally there is a modern bathroom with a white suite, a shower over the bath and a slate-effect tiled floor. The central heating and hot water are run from the Ideal combination boiler, which has been regularly serviced. The owner will be very sad to say goodbye to this flat and their brand new kitchen but is moving to another city for work reasons.

Lorna Road is in a fantastic location and living here you will be in the enviable position of being a short stroll from Church Road’s shops, restaurants, bars and cafes, and a fifteen-minute walk from Hove Lawns and the seafront. Hove station is only a ten-minute walk, where commuters can access regular Southern services to London Victoria. Westbound trains run to Southampton and Littlehampton.
