Wilbury Road,
Hove

Guide price £300,000 - £325,000. Stylish lower ground-floor apartment in central Hove with bright interiors, clever zoning, and a stunning new bathroom, steps from the beach and Church Road.

The property

Nestled on a sought-after street in central Hove, this beautifully presented lower ground-floor apartment is just moments from Church Road’s amenities and the beach. Redesigned and redecorated in the past two years, including a stunning new bathroom in 2023, the property feels much larger than a typical one-bedroom apartment thanks to its clever zoning.

Accessed via steps past a well-kept exterior, the entrance hall offers ample storage for coats, shoes, and even a bike. Laminate wooden flooring flows into a light-filled living room, where subtle pink walls are bathed in sunlight from the large bay window. This versatile space easily accommodates a sofa, dining table, and work-from-home desk, while built-in shelving adds both style and practicality. A charming archway leads to an internal hallway featuring Josef Frank wallpaper, connecting the kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom.

The galley kitchen is a cheerful mix of beige cabinetry, yellow-painted walls, and blue tiles, equipped with a gas hob, electric oven, and full-sized fridge/freezer. The bedroom is neutrally decorated with pops of Farrow and Ball Cook’s Blue, featuring engineered wooden flooring, a built-in wardrobe, and room for a double bed.

The art-deco-inspired bathroom boasts a double rainfall shower with gold fittings, textured zellige-style tiles, mosaic flooring, and sleek storage solutions – a true showstopper.
