Amberley Drive, Hove

Hamlyn Smith are excited to be offering for sale this three bedroom semi-detached house in Amberley Drive that will be snapped up by a buyer looking to modernise a property and build a superb contemporary home. The house has been in the same family for over fifty years and is now ready to be updated and enjoyed by its new owner. The property has the exceptional build quality associated with mid-century houses and also has a sizeable extension with plumbing and electrics that has incorporated former outbuildings. The extension is in need of repair, particularly to the roof, but has the potential to provide additional accommodation that would be ideal as a home office, or artist studio, for example.

On the ground floor there is a spacious entrance hall from where you can directly access both the living room and the kitchen. The living room is a lovely large square room around four metres in length with a bay window at the front and a door through to the dining room. The dining room overlooks the garden and is also adjacent to the kitchen. From the kitchen there is a door to the side of the house, and steps down to the extension area where there is currently a main space, a WC and two storage rooms. Upstairs there are three bedrooms and a bathroom, all accessed off a spacious landing. Parking outside the property is unrestricted and there is off-street parking on the driveway for at least one car.

Families in this area have a great range of schools close by, with West Blatchington and Hangleton Primary both within walking distance, while you will also be in catchment for Hove Park and Blatchington Mill secondary schools . This quiet residential area is well-connected to the rest of the city. By car you are only minutes from central Hove, Hove Park, or the beach, and commuters can quickly access the A27 and A23. Just a few metres from the property, around the corner in Burwash Road you can catch the 5B bus which is one of the best routes in Brighton & Hove. This service takes you down passed Hove station and then along Western Road into central Brighton before heading north up Grand Parade towards Preston Park and onto Patcham and Falmer. There is also a newsagent and chemist just around the corner in Burwash Road and a Co-op and Tesco Express near the junction of Westway and Hangleton Road. The large Sainsburys in West Hove is less than ten minutes away by car.
