Why you ll like it
The glorious Victorian mansions of Third Avenue were built in the 1870s to cater for fashionable Londoners looking to make the move from the capital to the coast for fresh sea air and bathing. Not much has changed in 150 years, and while many of these homes have since been converted into sizable apartment buildings such as this one, they remain just as popular.

Kings Cliff is a particularly grand and impressive mansion house set close to the sea but peacefully tucked away from the coast road. Its scale and beautiful architectural features are breathtaking, with a traditionally tiled, wide path paving the way to a grand portico entrance. Neat communal gardens lead down to the lower ground floor where this apartment resides. From the moment you enter it is clear this is a beautifully maintained apartment with generous rooms and ample glazing allowing plenty of natural light to filter through. This ensures it does not feel lower ground but also being set well back from the road behind leafy front gardens, allows views of nature to fill every space.

To the front, the sitting room is a magnificent size with ample room for sumptuous furnishings and a dining table and chairs. The d cor is classic in white paired with grey carpet underfoot, giving a clean and fresh aesthetic which flows throughout and works well with all styles of furnishing. An open aperture links through to the kitchen so the chef remains sociable and borrowed light can flow through. Country style cabinetry offers plenty of storage solutions alongside an integrated oven, hob, and fridge, leaving space and plumbing for a washing machine and slimline dishwasher both of which the vendors are kindly including in the sale. It would be possible to modernise in here for very little while adding value to the property.

Next door, the bathroom is also traditional in blue and white with a shower over the bath. Just outside the door is a spacious airing cupboard, while a further deep storage cupboard is outside the bedrooms, ideal for household items to ensure the flat remains clutter free.

Both bedrooms sit peacefully to the rear of the building with the principal room enjoying a wide bay window looking out to green and leafy neighbouring gardens. They are both substantial double rooms, ideal for families or professionals looking to share or work from home in a large office.

This generous flat is situated in a popular area with lots of local shops and the beach nearby. The city centre shopping districts and parks are also within easy reach, and this building also offers easy access to Hove Station which has direct and fast links to the airports and London."
