2 bed flat for sale

Goldstone Crescent, Hove BN3

Raised up behind grassy verges on a prestigious, tree lined road skirting Hove Park sits Gannet House, a smart Mid-Century development of generous apartments with leafy views.

It faces west with large picture windows to frame exceptional views over Hove Park and the Engineerium while filling each space with natural light.

Why you’ll like it:
Built during the 1970s, these attractive low-rise developments have been sensitively blended into their green surroundings. The leafy environs of Hove Park are on the doorstep, while the grounds of Gannet House offer a pretty and private outlook for the residents. A sweeping drive leads to the upper buildings where this flat resides on the second (top) floor. An entry phone provides access and stepping inside it is clear this is a spacious and naturally light apartment. The entrance hall is particularly wide and welcoming with a vast amount of storage within three built-in cupboards to house coats, shoes and household items.

The first double bedroom is a very large double room with space for a king size bed and freestanding bedroom furnishings. There are further wardrobes built-in which maximise the space further and the wide picture window brings in plenty of natural light while framing private garden views. Bedroom two is another double room looking out over leafy environs, and both are double glazed to ensure a truly warm and restful night’s sleep.

Along the hall, the shower room has a spacious corner shower unit with an electric shower to ensure constant hot water when needed. Fresh in white, you can add a pop of colour with toiletries and towels which can be warmed on the heated rail.

The generous proportions continue in the living room which has a wide box bay window almost covering the westerly wall, offering the perfect space for a dining table and chairs. There is ample space elsewhere for comfortable furnishings and the neutral decoration will suit all styles.

Nearby, the kitchen would benefit from some modernisation, but everything is in good working order with space for freestanding appliances alongside timber cabinetry. This is a room where you could add value easily to create real impact to the feel of the home.
