Why you ll like it
You can hear the rush of the waves and the calling of the gulls as you approach Viceroy Lodge which holds a corner position overlooking the promenade and sea. As with many seafront Deco buildings, it has the appearance of an ocean liner with clean, horizontal lines and ample glazing. You access this apartment from the side entrance on Hove Street where a tiled corridor leads to your door.

You enter first into a wide entrance hall bearing the original parquet flooring in warm honeyed tones. Two deep storage cupboards have space for hanging coats and storing household items to ensure the flat remains clutter free.

First to the right, the living room is airy and bright with a westerly window framing leafy garden views, ever changing with the seasons. These are a joy to look out to from both sofas and the dining table which can sit below the window. There is ample space for comfortable furnishings, and it is versatile to suit all styles and layouts.

Conveniently next door, the kitchen has been well designed for the space, benefitting from an integrated oven and hob alongside space for freestanding appliances and an additional spacious storage room in a large rear larder. Once again, you can look out over the garden as you wash up.

Mirroring the living room, the bedroom is a lovely double room with garden views and built in wardrobes which maximise the floor space. White walls and dark grey carpets offer a blank canvas for new owners who can add several pieces of freestanding bedroom furnishings.

Set to lawn with beautiful borders, the communal garden is a treat for the senses and is large enough for several residents to enjoy at once. There are areas to dine alfresco or to have gatherings, and you can sit out here in the last of the summer sunshine where the beach feels too busy during high season.

This generous apartment is situated in a popular area with lots of local shops and the beach on your doorstep. Hove s social and commercial centre and parks are also within easy reach, and this home also offers easy access to Hove Station which has direct and fast links to the airports and London."
