Property description
2 Bed Victorian House in Great Location in Poets Corner This is a great opportunity to acquire this partially modernised Victorian house in the ever popular Poets Corner area of Hove which is ideally situated for access to Hove and Aldrington Railway stations. The seafront, the city centre is also very easily accessible. Nearby Portland Road now boasts some great shops, restaurants, cafes, bars etc and you can hop on a bus to almost anywhere in the city from here too. The house has recently had a new, well deigned kitchen and some damp remedial works. It offers someone the chance to still make their own mark and houses such as this also have great scope for extension and or attic conversions (subject to the usual consents).
In More Detail
Number 80 is located at the top end of Rutland Road close to the extremely popular Ancient Mariner pub. This family friendly establishment has the utmost respect for those that live nearby, they do a mean Sunday roast too but be sure to book. On the ground floor there is a very good size lounge/dining room. Gone are the old textured ceilings and having been recently skimmed, some areas of bare plaster remain at either end of the room, the result of some recent damp remedial works. This room has an attractive period style fireplace, gas fire and radiators in both sections of the room. The kitchen has been recently refurbished and very well designed. There's ample base and wall units, plenty of works surface and room for a breakfast bar too. The kitchen also has integrated gas hob, electric oven and grill. There's an integrated fridge and freezer and dishwasher. At the rear of the house is a superb utility room with working surfaces on both sides, provision for the washing machine and a stable door leads out onto the West facing rear garden. Upstairs there's a split level landing, great storage in the built in over stairs cupboard and a pull down ladder gives access to the part boarded attic. At the front you have the large master bedroom, a very spacious room with the large bay at the front. Deep built in wardrobes with sliding doors run all the way down one side of this room. The 2nd bedroom is very comfortable, the removal of a chimney breast has given this room an even more spacious feel. At the rear of the house you have a large bathroom, space for the bath and a separate shower cubicle with thermostatic shower. There's a large wash hand basin with handy storage under. There are 2 further built in cupboards, one housing the recently replaced Worcester gas boiler. The back garden is fairly typical of a house in Poets Corner. All of the houses are built fairly close together. Its a pleasant, completely enclosed patio with raised borders and a useful side return too. Viewing highly recommended.
